The last Cat Stevens album

The last Cat Stevens album I got was Buddha and the Chocolate Box, an interesting endpiece to his heyday. Like poor old John Lennon, Cat was searching, so hard, but not finding truth. John found domestic bliss. Regardless of what we think of Yoko, aspiring to just be a better husband and father was something I was glad for John that he found, after his lost years. And he was right to not record for years.

While disappointed in Cat Stevens' choice, I'd hoped he found peace, and was glad that when he thought he had, he quit music.

It is seeking and struggle which make for good rock (and other stories); rockers adapt poorly to hymns of joy and salvation. Would that some other 'enlightened' musicians had not tried to share. *cough* Starship *cough*
