LONDON, Nov 13: Yusuf Islam, the artist formerly known as Cat Stevens before he became a Muslim in the 1970s, on Monday released his first commercial album for nearly three decades.
“An Other Cup” went on sale in Britain along with a single, `Heaven/Where True Love Goes’.
With his telegenic, part-Greek good looks, Stevens scored international hits in the 1960 and 1970s, but in 1977 he decided to hang up his guitar -- changing his name and retiring from it all after embracing Islam.—AFP
