Review - Amazon.com :
This is a pretty good collection overall, featuring 20 hits and should've-been-hits from the voluminous Cat Stevens catalog, including cuts from the Harold and Maude soundtrack. But there are also important omissions here, like "Wild World." For that, you'll need to go back to the Tea for the Tillerman LP, or shoulder some overlap by getting the mid-'70s Greatest Hits package. It actually wouldn't be such a bad idea to snap up some original Cat Stevens albums--Tea for the Tillerman and Teaser and the Firecat are thick with hits, and each has a certain...cohesiveness that's lost when not heard in its entirety. --Gavin McNett Customer review - 1999-04-19

- Best Artist Ever!Listen to the lyrics and you will be completely uplifted. I have listened to Cat Stevens for the last 24 years, every album recorded and continue to listen to his music today as if it's my first time. I have introduced his music to my children at their earliest age, even sing to them at bedtime and they love it! I highly recommend "Teaser and the Firecat" and "Tea for the Tillerman" as your first albums.

- Best Album That Money Can BuyIt's all here (except for maybe "I wish, I wish") - every Cat Stevens song you wanted, all on the same cd. I bought it because it had the majority of the songs from the "Harold and Maude" soundtrack. When you're depressed, nothing beats his music.

- Cat Stevens was (and remains) a great singer songwriter!This is a great overview of Stevens' work throughout the 1970's. A great collecters item that is out of print. If you can find it, buy it!

- A very good introduction to Cat This is the very first CD I bought, nearly 20 years ago now, before I even had a CD player. It was quite a while before I ever got to listen to it, but it was well worth the wait. This isn't just a collection of hits, it's an overview of what Cat's music is all about. There's stuff from a number of his albums, including those, like "Numbers: A Pythagorean Theory Tale", which didn't produce big hits. It's also got a booklet telling you quite a bit about Stevens and his musical career.
If you want a good introduction to Cat Stevens, this is one of the best, because it shows you a bit of what all his music is like, not just what got played on the radio.
