Product Description

Cat Stevens was one of the most successful solo performers of the sixties and seventies, racking up over 50 million album sales worldwide. He had a string of 14 Top 40 singles, as well as seven top 10 albums between 1971 and 1977.

The concert included on this DVD and CD was recorded on the Majikat North American tour in 1976. It was an ambitious tour involving live magicians, synchronized film projection and a specially-constructed stage.

For the first time ever, both the CD and DVD are packaged together to bring a, dare we say it, MAJIK show with you wherever you go.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb concert recording, February 10, 2007

By	J. M. Rugo (St. Louis, MO USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If, like me, you have missed Cat Stevens music in your life these past 30 years, then this is a MUST HAVE DVD. All the great songs are done well, with a great backup band and several solo numbers. The DTS and Dolby 5:1 sound is superb for a mid-1970's recording, and the video is well done with none of the choppy screen breaks so common in bad concert DVD's. This is likely the only live Cat Stevens concert we will ever have. It is in heavy rotation in our home and even the kids are singing along. Do yourself a favor, and welcome Cat back into your life. For those who are new to Cat, this is all you will need.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good DVD for the Music Collection, April 12, 2007

By	tgor "Music Everywhere" (Seattle, WA United States) - See all my reviews

I need to state I am a long time Cat Stevens fan, so perhaps this is a biased opinion. That said, this is an excellent rendition from a passionate performer. The musical quality of the DVD is very good, as other reviewers have stated for the the timeframe of the recording. That is not always the case, so this was a pleasant surprise. My only complaint, and this would not deter me from buying this DVD, is the pace of the music is faster in this delivery than the original LP recordings. It's good, very good, but feels a little bit rushed. A little like a pitch wheel has been accelorated.

And it is very good. The audio CD is a bonus.

5.0 out of 5 stars Any Cat Stevens fan will love this, August 23, 2007

By	Therese Carney - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The DVD of the concert is beautiful. Watching Cat perform his songs as he embodies the feelings he elicited in me many years ago is such a gift. My husband and I have listened to the CD hundreds of times and will never grow tired of it. The tone of the concert is joyous, and of course sensuous.
