Back in 1970 and following a period of illness and recuperation, singer-songwriting troubadour Cat Stevens re-emerged with a new record deal with Island Records and a spiritual and artistic rebirth. âMona Bone Jakonâ, his first album for Island, showcased a markedly different change in direction for Cat, unveiling with it a remarkable set of new compositions that included classics like âTroubleâ, âMaybe Youâre Rightâ and the UK hit single âLady DâArbanvilleâ.
To commemorate the albumâs 50th anniversary comes this definitive super deluxe box set of âMona Bone Jakonâ. Sounding as fresh as the day it was recorded, the original album is represented here by a brand new 2020 remaster of âMona Bone Jakonâ by Geoff Pesche at Abbey Road, overseen by original producer Paul Samwell-Smith 2020 on CD, as well as a new 2020 Mix by David Hefti on both CD and LP. The set also includes an exclusive third CD of previously unreleased demos, and a fourth featuring 18 live performances from 1970/71.
This box is rounded out with a live 12â etched vinyl E.P. of a rare audience recording of âLive At Plumpton Jazz & Blues Festivalâ from August 1970, and with a BluRay disc featuring the original promo video of âLady DâArbanvilleâ, plus eight live TV performances, and the HD audio of the new Mona Bone Jakon 2020 Mix. Also included is a 98-page beautifully illustrated hardcover book with extensive new sleevenotes. Finally thereâs also a selection of memorabilia including Island Records press kit, two Island press photos, a replica 1970 Plumpton Jaxx and Blues flyer, a Cat Stevens tour sticker and âdustbinâ greetings card and pop art print in a card envelope.
