Yusuf/Cat Stevens - Tea for the Tillerman - Vinyl Record
Following his spiritual and artistic rebirth, and hot on the heels of the well received Mona Bone Jakon, Cat Stevens released his second album of 1970 that November. Tea for the Tillerman became one of the defining musical statements of the new decade, consolidating his success in the UK and launching a glittering career in the United States.
Produced by Paul Samwell-Smith, its sparse acoustic arrangements put Stevens' voice and guitar front and centre. The songs are timeless: "Wild World", "Father and Son", "Where Do the Children Play?", "Hard Headed Woman" and "Sad Lisa" balance gentle melodies with big questions about love, faith and growing up, and the short title song closes the album with a smile.
This Island Records reissue presents the remastered album in a gatefold sleeve, a beautiful way to hear one of the cornerstones of 1970s singer-songwriter music. An essential for any folk or classic rock shelf.

If your record arrives damaged or folded (thanks, postal service), reach out ASAP so we can fix it.

Avoid extreme heat or sunlight. Definitely don’t let it mingle with any Justin Bieber records. Treat it like your grandma — gentle, respectful, and quiet during Murder, She Wrote.
