Your voice is similar to Cat Stevens, wow, incredible job.
Now this is my era and I bought the LP when it came out… great job @ReneAsologuitar 🙏
Very nice. I love the Cat. I like the personal touch you gave it.
Another great performance, great job. 👏
Like @Montreal_Music I think your voice is very similar to Cat Stevens (also reminds me of Labi Siffre too!) and suits this song very well. Like the faster tempo compared to the original.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
You are so kind, @Montreal_Music !
This is a huge compliment, and I am so grateful!!!
Cat Stevens has definitely found and formed a big part of my musical journey.
Thank you so much!!!

Wonderful. Now on to Richie Havens!
Genius! Absolutely nailed it. Your voice is sublime and is in Cat Stevens’ league. I loved this @ReneAsologuitar
Lovely. Keep that vibe coming!
Nailed it! Love the energy in your rendition. I knew you would do a great job with Cat Stevens / Yusuf Islam. Great cover, great performance!
i don't know who is Cat Stevens and never heard the original song before but you made this sound great and enjoyable

Hi @GeoTony ,
Love to hear that we are in the same era, although I was not able to afford the album at the time.
You are so awesome, and so appreciated, Tony!!!
Blessings,

Hi @Ailerom ,
I grew up with Cat's musical genius, and loved his music!!!
I cannot compete with Cat, so I had to make it my own to stay away from his lane, hahahaha!
Thank you for the huge compliment!

great job as always, wonderful production, singing and guitar. Great match to the original tone.
Morning has Broken is the next one - with Rick Wakeman guest starring on Piano
Brings back some great memories. Very well done. Thanks for playing this one!
One of my favourite songs, impecabbly delivered, thank you, @ReneAsologuitar !
Though my favourite of his, and one of my favourites of all time, was his debut, Mathew & Son, delivered here in pre Yusuf Islam, full Austin Powers mode:
A song from my childhood, (1967, I was 5, loved it as soon as I heard it- weird kid!) but as relevant as it ever was in these un-unionised, gig economy times…
“No one asks for more money cuz nobody dares
Even though they're pretty low and their rent's in arrears…”
And what a fantastic arrangement, strings, brass, kick-ass drums…
Fantastic performance. Immediately triggered the fondest of memories of being young. My freshman year roomate had this album and played it all the time. Never got tired of it. Thanks for sharing this.

Hi @AlterEgo_UK ,
Always great to hear from you, and really love the Cat and Labi mentions!!!
Thank you for the huge compliments.
You are so loved and appreciated.
Happy New Year!

I’m rediscovering Cat Stevens lately. So good timing for me.
Great cover. Your vocal suits that style.
If you take requests: anything from Tea for the Tillerman.
This is priceless. I wouldn’t recognize him, and the dancers! My imagination or is anyone really enjoying themselves?
@Ben : The audience look like there are armed guards just out of shot preparing to fire. I also like the way it starts with him like the only groover in the crowd, until his fist pumps identify him as the performer. And the dancers. Not at all self conscious…. A very odd, artificial set up all round. I love it!

Now this is going to be a jam!!!
I am threading some very sacred territory here, and I am going to follow your lead, and try to find a way to wiggle some Richie Havens groove in.
Thank you, as always, Mike!!!

Hi @SLPGroundSoundMusic ,
Wow, I am surprised that you are not familiar with Cat Stevens.
You must be much younger that I am.
The songs of the 70's are my teens, and the crowd of Cat Stevens, and James Taylor, and Neil Young kinda covered my musical exposure. Groups like the Eagles, Bee Gees, CSNY, America, Bread, and company are my musical heroes.
I am so glad to have delivered the musical genius of Cat Stevens to your musical ear!!!
Thank you for your wonderful comments!!!
With love and respect,
Rene
