Start here

Warm, melodic folk-pop of searching and faith, home to 'Father and Son' and 'Wild World'. Gentle and enduring. His defining record. Released in 1970, it's an early landmark for Cat Stevens.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
