The record


Title: Cat Stevens - Very Young And Early Songs
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1971, Folk Pop, Baroque Pop and Singer-Songwriter, London, England 8/26
Matrix #: DES 18061
Condition: VG+ (LM) | Members: Cat S (47' - )
Cultural Facts:

  1. Release History: Very Young And Early Songs collects recordings from Stevens’ first Deram period, preserving the ornate pop sound he made before the stripped-down singer-songwriter style of Tea for the Tillerman.
  2. Personal Struggle: Stevens contracted tuberculosis in 1969 and spent months hospitalized and recovering, a frightening illness that pushed him to reconsider his life, spirituality, and musical direction.
  3. Career Turning: These early recordings document the teenage songwriter before his 1970 reinvention, when songs such as “Matthew and Son” had already made him a British pop star but left him dissatisfied with the direction of his career.

    This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

    Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
