Completists will be happy to own many of the rarities on this four-disc set, including Stevens's first demo session, an unreleased 1970 duet with Elton John, a cover of Fats Domino's "Blue Monday," and several choice live cuts from the late '70s. And it's nice to have an overview of the artist's entire career–from late '60s pop-star wannabe to '70s folk-rock superstar–in one place. But the difference between early Cat Stevens (despite composing hits for others) and post-Tea for the Tillerman Stevens is substantial. The two follow-up LPs were part of a trilogy of brilliance–both musically and lyrically–and any Stevens collection must start there. Nevertheless, surprises and some gems are to be found throughout all four discs–even his most recent recording (as Yusuf Islam) isn't bad. This box set also offers a choice opportunity to reassess a deserving career. (All royalties go to New York City relief victims and orphans and homeless families in underdeveloped countries.)
This special line up of Acid Mothers Temple & The Cosmic Inferno was happened just for "MIMI Festival" in Marseille 2015. We've played 3 shows, The Doom in London, "MMI Festival" in Marseille and Club Goodman in Tokyo then. Though Acid Mothers Temple & The Cosmic Inferno has gone on a hiatus, The present Acid Mothers Temple & The Melting Paraiso U.F.O. took many songs over from this group. It's the only one release of this special one up, also this digital album was released only for Bandcamp.
