5.0 out of 5 stars excellent , May 12, 2007

By	K. E. Edler (phoenix az) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

For me this was a must have item because of what this artists contribution to the music industy ment to me in the 70's. and listening to these discs was like a revisiting my younger days. Also included are many previously unreleased cuts and many of his earlier works which i am now hearing for the first time. Easy listening catchy melodys and deep meaninful lyrics. Its good to see that this music is finally being released after all these years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cat Stevens Box Set, August 27, 2007

By	Wilbur L. Bowen "make a difference" (Albuquerque, NM USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you love the music of Cat Stevens then you will appreciate this collection. The CDs come in a 90 page book that gives a lot of insights into the man, Steven Dementre Georgiou, who took the stage name Cat Stevens and after becoming a muslim changed his name to Yusuf Islam. The music on the four CDs follow his musical journey that led him to his faith of God through the teachings of the Quran.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cat Stevens -- Busy Guy, August 28, 2008

By	Kathryn - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I ordered this expecting... I'm not sure. What I got was a whole bunch of songs I had never heard before. It was a nice suprise. Cat Stevens was quite prolific in the 60's and 70's. There are treats such as "I love my dog" in addition to better known hits as "Peace train" and "Father & Son" (studio and Live)

If you just want "Morning Has Broken" and "Another Saturday Night" stick with "Greatest Hits" but if you want a more complete look at the Artist, then The Box Set is what you want.
