Our Take

Yusuf - The Laughing Apple

Cat Stevens, or should we say Yusuf, is back with his latest release, "The Laughing Apple." This album takes you on a whimsical journey through time, blending folk influences with a touch of Middle Eastern flair.

The opening track, "Blackness of the Night," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its haunting melody and heartfelt lyrics. Yusuf's voice still carries that magical quality that made him a household name in the '70s.

"The Laughing Apple" showcases Yusuf's ability to create music that is both nostalgic and contemporary. Tracks like "Grandsons" and "Northern Wind (Death of Billy the Kid)" take you on a musical rollercoaster, with each song offering something new and unexpected.

Despite his long hiatus from the music scene, Yusuf hasn't lost his touch. His songwriting remains as strong as ever, with each track offering a unique perspective on love, loss, and life in general.

Overall, "The Laughing Apple" is a delightful return to form for Yusuf. It's a reminder of why he's considered one of the greatest singer-songwriters of our time. So grab a cup of tea, sit back, and let Yusuf serenade you with his sweet melodies.
