This is one wonderful thing I never thought would happen. Cat Stevens is back!!

From Rolling Stone magazine.
Yusuf Islam (Cat Stevens)
An Other Cup
Out November 14
The artist formerly known as Cat Stevens' first album of pop songs since 1978 recalls the heart-tugging folk-rock of classics like Tea for the Tillerman. But because of Islam's 1977 religious conversion and subsequent world events, the new songs - about love, faith and world peace - have an added resonance. "Midday," about Islam's native London, carries a somber message: "I like to take a walk out in the midday/And avoid the city after dark." Listen for the lovely "Heaven/Where True Love Goes," on which Islam sings lyrics that seem to reflect his famous conversion experience in the surf of Malibu: "If a storm should come and you face a wave/That may be the chance for you to be saved."
