This seems to be a good book, but unfortunately there's no guitar tablature. Very often there are two guitars on Cat Stevens' songs and it would have been nice to see both tablatures. Here, you only get the chords. The chords for the introductions are not there either. I know the intro to Father and son is G and C, so why not write it? Not a book for guitarists unless you are a musician that can read partitions.

A good book for those who love Stevens, but not too much.
Aug 5 1998
By A Customer

It's probably the most complete book of Stevens that is not out-of-print. It's very complete, and very well done. He's easy to read. But, you don't get all of the score, as in Moonshadow (i.e) you don't have the intro of the song. Also, some little things that you hear while listening the albums are not in it.i.e in Wild World, in the chorus, there a little picking and pulloff on the guitar: on the book, it's not the same. The chords sound very good ( same as the albums.) and the piano scores are terrific. For those who really know Stevens, I don't recommend it beacause you don't have the songs from Numbers to Back to Earth albums. You miss really good ones especially, *Novim's Nightmare* a very complex and beautifull song.

Good Transcription

This book will fit the bill for most musicians who want to play the music of Cat Stevens. A few of the introductions are somewhat inaccurate and it would be nice if the second and third verses to If I Laugh and Tuesdays Dead could be on the same page as the music. The intro to Moonshadow is missing as well. None the less most musicians will find this book very helpful.
