  • Taken from "Teaser and the Firecat", 1971. 2021 reissue, 50th anniversary remaster.
    This song is not a Cat Stevens original, it is a religious hymn written in the 1930s by Eleanor Farjeon. Cat Stevens arranged this version together with Rick Wakeman, the keyboard virtuoso of the band Yes, who also played the piano part in this song, and without which it wouldn't be so memorable.

    Morning has broken like the first morning
    Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
    Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
    Praise for them springing fresh from the world
    Sweet the rains new fall, sunlit from Heaven
    Like the first dewfall on the first grass
    Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
    Sprung in completeness where His feet pass
    Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
    Born of the one light, Eden saw play
    Praise with elation, praise every morning
    God's recreation of the new day
    Morning has broken like the first morning
    Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
    Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
    Praise for them springing fresh from the world

    Back in the days I only bought one of Cat Steven's albums - Catch Bull at Four (which has none of his big hits on it). There is a song on it entitled "O Caritas" that is profoundly beautiful. Now, hearing this, I really wish I had picked up a few of his other LPs back then. I see they have 50th anniversary sets for around $100, but I may opt for either a previously owned LP or the CD. He truly is a musician, whether as Yusuf Islam or Cat Stevens, he still is an indisputable artist. Thank you Rui for a trip back in time (it sounds like the reissue was done well - I have to consider it as well). 👍👍👍👍👍

    • @MrVinylObsessive
      @MrVinylObsessive  Před 2 lety

      Well, I didn't spend $100 on this record, I paid less than 30€ for it, because I only bought the vinyl record, no CDs, books, Blu-ray or any other goodies included.
      But incredibly, Amazon is selling a Back to Black reissue ( which in itself tells me that it's a very very regular edition, as normal as you can get, not a special edition or rarity) for a scandalous $249.98. Can someone explain to me please, what is the justification for this absurd price? It's a Back to Black edition, for God’s sake!
      The edition I bought has a very clean and rich sound, the vinyl itself is very silent, so I recommend it to you if you are interested in the vinyl record only, and if you are not interested in all the other items included in the super deluxe edition. I doubt that an original pressing will sound superior to this.

      Gracias Roberto, compré este viernes por la mañana después de ver el video de Phil con la misma canción. Anhelaba este álbum desde hace mucho tiempo. Todo el álbum suena hermoso.
      Siempre pensé que la interpretación de Rick Wakeman en el piano era tan elegante (tiene algo de música clásica) y agregaba mucho a esta canción.

    Olá Rui:
    This album is on my "wishlist."
    With the mention of several editions, the big question for me:
    Which edition is more convenient?
    Hey, this 50th anniversary remaster is great, no complaints 👍👍
    It could be my first choice!
    It's good to know that keyboardist virtuoso Rick Wakeman is the man behind the piano.
    I hadn't noticed that information before!
    As usual, great video too!
    Best!

      Hi Raul, there is an expensive super deluxe edition which includes this record and a few CDs, Blu-Ray, and books, etc. But I only bought the vinyl record, not the other goodies.
      All I can say is that this edition sounds very nice, and I'm happy with it. 👌

    I love this album... the remastering on this 50th Anv edition is great. The Optimal pressings not so much. My first copy had vast swathes of non fill and the horrid noises that come with that defect. My second is visually alot better yet still has minor nf patches and is still a little noisier than i expect from Optimal. Pre-covid they were an excellent reliable plant but in my experience since 2019 they mess up over 50% of what they press to varying degree.

    • @Ryan-on5on
      @Ryan-on5on Před 2 lety +1

      What 9/11 comments are you exactly referring to? Per his Wikipedia page and other sources, after the events of 9/11 Yusuf publicly condemned in the strongest possible terms those deplorable actions in the statement below:
      "I wish to express my heartfelt horror at the indiscriminate terrorist attacks committed against innocent people of the United States yesterday. While it is still not clear who carried out the attack, it must be stated that no right-thinking follower of Islam could possibly condone such an action. The Qur'an equates the murder of one innocent person with the murder of the whole of humanity. We pray for the families of all those who lost their lives in this unthinkable act of violence as well as all those injured; I hope to reflect the feelings of all Muslims and people around the world whose sympathies go out to the victims of this sorrowful moment."
      Unless if you are referring to the controversial comments Yusuf made about the Salman Rushdie fatwa more than a decade prior to 9/11 I don't understand how you could possibly construe the above statement as a hateful one.
