Just seen this. Terry Reid is the guv'nor in my book, and that is my absolute favourite album of his. Found out too late to go and see it performed, although I saw him perform my favourite track off that album, Brave Awakening, with Rumer at the Jazz Cafe a year ago. Don't know if you've seen him recently, but he does enjoy the odd light ale.
Bring tea for the Tillerman Steak for the sun Wine for the women who made the rain come Seagulls sing your hearts away 'Cause while the sinners sin, the children play
Oh Lord how they play and play For that happy day, for that happy day
Marvellous song (and album) although I've absolutely no fricking idea what he's singing about I've loved this song for more than forty years. "Cat-Fantastic pop pickers!!!" as Alan Freeman might have remarked at the time.
It's funny how some songwriters seem to have an evangelical ability to inwardly communicate and lift one's spirit. Cat Stevens s is certainly one of them. 'Lilywhite' anyone.....? Great songwriter.

but not out of choice, it's on heavy rotation on the radio station chosen by my work colleagues, Capital. Why adults listen to it I don't understand.
