Cat Stevens – Mona Bone Jakon (Vinyl LP) * * * *

Cat Stevens’ 1970 Studio Album Mona Bone Jakon on LP. Includes the Tracks “Trouble,” “Maybe You’re Right” and “Lady D’Arbanville.”

Back in 1970, and following a period of illness and recuperation, singer-songwriting troubadour Cat Stevens re-emerged with a new record deal with Island Records and a spiritual and artistic rebirth. Mona Bone Jakon, his first album for Island, showcased a markedly change in direction for Cat, unveiling with it a remarkable set of new compositions that included classics like “Trouble,” “Maybe You’re Right,” and the UK hit single “Lady D’Arbanville.”
