 (l-r, front) Cat Stevens and Jerry Moss; (l-r, rear) Prince Rupert Lowenstein, noted music business lawyer Abe Somer, and Stevens's manager, Barry Krost Undated Private collection Moss signed Stevens in the late 1960s through a licensing agreement with Island Records. Stevens' second album for A&M, "Tea for the Tillerman," firmly established his international reputation as a melodic, sensitive singer-songwriter and was the second in a string of eight consecutive gold albums. |

Thank you for the comment odeon. I'm really glad you like it.  You're welcome... ps. But is it real? His legs seem too short, but surely they aren't. Or is it just an optical illusion? |

Yes now that you mention it.. they do seem to be short. I don't know if this is an optical illusion however, where did you find it? |

I agree, it must have something to do with the pillow he sits on. |

I found one! I found one! I'm going through boxes of old magazines I got at an auction (for my shop). This is an ad for Dynamic Sounds studio in Jamaica, from Billboard Magazine, Sept. 15 1973. He looks very happy here. Of course, if I were in Jamaica, knowing what kind of things they *do* in Jamaica, I might be blissfully grinning too.  |

What a cool picture and a cool ad! Thanks for sharing. Am I crazy or is that a swastika around his neck?

Not crazy. I noticed it too. I've read that its meaning depends on which way it's turned, that it used to be an ancient sign of peace until the Nazis corrupted it.

Also, FWIW, in that week's issue the album Foreigner was listed at #8 on the chart. |

Here's another one! This one is from Billboard Nov. 3 1973 in an article titled "US Companies Getting Bigger Slice of the Cake." Cat is described as "a good example of one of the UK's prime source of talent from which vast American sales can be generated." This photo might already be on the site somewhere, maybe not.  Alas, "Foreigner" has dropped down to #33. |

one of my favorite photos of Cat . xo just love those boots.. and the sweep of his hair ..and the mood he is in ..
as for the peace sign necklace.. I remember he caught some slack for that .. but of course people weren't educated on the sign and what it meant xo they looked pretty stupid back then and stupid isnt pretty !! ... |

He looks very happy here. Of course, if I were in Jamaica, knowing what kind of things they *do* in Jamaica, I might be blissfully grinning too. "A Stevens hit single played a part in a recent controversy in Britain. A music newspaper printed a picture of Stevens, and two readers who noticed he was wearing a swastika wrote the paper advising Stevens he could "shove his ‘Peace Train’ up his ass." A flood of correspondence deluged the editor, most writers defending Cat. One reader cited the claim that the male swastika represented "the power of Light among Aryan peoples, whereas the female kind signified the power of Darkness." Stevens himself replied in print that, "The symbol called the swastika is much older than you think, It was a sign of light and peace for thousands of years during the early Chinese-Indian-Greek-Roman cultures, before Hitler chose the dark side." (from an article found on Majicat) |
