simple, juvenile and well structured, you'll know is from the 60's just by listening it, July 19 2007
By Humberto Mejia "Still alive and kicking" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Matthew And Son (Audio CD)
Luis Mejia (son) - The first Cat Stevens album, some songs quite left a mark in the 60's era, and even though it's difficult to find it or to tell about it as a Cat Stevens point of reference, it isn't that what makes it so nice, it's just the simple but very well thought rythms, the juvenile and fresh style of the album and the familiar mellodies. The orchestration is also a very nice touch.Just as I mentioned the rythms of the album are very easy listening (not as a genre), juvenile and fresh, quite a different from his later deep works. Lady, I've Found A Love and Hummingbird are simply sweet and mellodic ballads; the title track, Portabello Road, I Love My Dog and The Tramp are rythmical song with the greatest use of orchestra, possessing a deeper composition (much more alike with his later works) and very cathcy rythms; Here Comes My Baby, Bring Another Bottle Baby, Come On And Dance, Baby Get Your Head Screwed On, Granny, I'm Gonna Get Me A Gun and When I speak To The Flowers are also very catchy songs, not too much that I like them, maybe Granny and Here Comes My Baby, but are also a little bit jazzy and a little bit incoherent but refreshing.
A record for all fans to possess, cause it's always a new point of view by hearng the first cd, though I don't recommend it too much for casual listeners.

The Cat is always good..., Jun 8 2008
By William Hoffknecht "SC2NewSCast com" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Matthew And Son (Audio CD)
For those that are unaware, Cat Stevens is one of the greatest singer/songwriters ever and this is just another stunning example of his abilities.As for albums, this is not the greatest and is also not the most well-known, but if you are a fan of acoustic guitar and some great lyrics, this is a must own as well as if you are a fan of Cat Stevens or his later Yusef stuff.

A far different Cat than i've ever heard (and it's the Cats Meaow), Sep 27 2010
By Dan L. Manes "Happy,clappy music person" - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Matthew And Son (Audio CD)
Cat Stevens did psychedelic music? He sure did and this is that album! Very Donovon-like in style, it was and is interesting to hear Cat Stevens doing a style than i'm not accoustmed to hearing out of him.Is it amazing? Well no...i wouldn't say that. It is interesting AND the music being played is top notch.The lyrics aren't deep at all and are very much light and fluffy and very sixties inspired. All that being mentioned, it doesn't mean you should not pick up the album as it IS quite good....---for THAT kind of music---
I love tunes from that era and have always loved Cats voice, so to me it was a no-brainer and something i needed to own.
Listmania!
