Product Description
Brand New ~ Sealed! Special Limited Edition Pressed On 180 Gram Green Vinyl. Beautiful Embossed Heavy Grade Gatefold Cover Includes 36-Page Booklet. Yusuf / Cat Stevens Returns In 2023 With 12 Remarkable New Songs.
‘King of a Land’ is an epic body of work. More than a decade in the making, its 12 new songs are full of extraordinary surprises. Unique and transportive, Yusuf’s music, words and melodies paint a vivid picture of a world which embraces the lost lands of truisms and stainless youth, and brings it into touching distance. His poetical storytelling invites the listener on a journey towards the gates of an alternative universe to that which we presently inhabit ~ where happy endings can possibly happen. From the gloriously unexpected hard-rock intensity of “Pagan Run” to the Tchaikovsky-inspired orchestration on “How Good It Feels”, the delicate acoustic balladry of “He Is True”, through to the driving Phil Spector-goes-gospel vibe of “Highness”, the Travelling Wilburys-styled rolling Americana groove of “All Nights, All Days”, and the ornate, atmospheric “Son Of Mary”, ‘King of a Land’ is an epic body of work. The album’s artwork was created by Peter H Reynolds, the award-winning children’s illustrator. As well as the cover art, Peter has created illustrations for each song portraying the album’s lyrical themes that feature in the record’s accompanying booklet.
