It's an excellent album with some superb musicians involved and a very welcome return to collaboration with Paul Samwell Smith. This is a departure from his 'usual' style inasmuch as it's mainly a collection of blues songs only half of which were self-penned.

Hopefully, sooner than later, we’ll be able to jump in the “Peace Train.” Still, the idea behind the song is something to aim for. Even those of us who bought into the lyrics of fifty years ago have seen enough to know that thoughts behind the music are impossible in this era of divide and lack of trust in the other side. I’m not sure the Cat Stevens of today would be able to write this song. In reality, we’ve never come together as one since back in the days of “Peace Train.” His supporters think it goes back eight years earlier with the election of Barack Obama. One side says it started five years ago with the election of Donald Trump. We’ve recently passed the fifty-year mark of “Teaser and the Firecat” and “Peace Train.” Those of us who were around for the divide of 1971 are reliving it in 2021. “Peace Train” was a top-five hit on all American music charts. I don’t know if Cat was naive or if he really believed this, but the song struck a chord among music buyers. The lyrics state that he believed that all people would soon be living together in peace and solidarity. It’s amazing that during a time of despair and distress that Stevens could write a song of such optimism and hope. Some of the more popular songs on the record included “The Wind”, “Morning Has Broken”, and “Moonshadow.” But the highlight was “Peace Train”, the final track of the album. It was certified as a triple-platinum record. “Teaser” received unanimously positive reviews while selling more than three million albums. “Teaser and the Firecat” was the follow-up to “Tea for the Tillerman”, his first hit album from the previous year. On the first day of October, Cat Stevens released his fifth studio album. It was definitely an era of us versus them. Protests over the war in Vietnam and civil rights are ongoing. The United States is as divided as it’s ever been.
