I was a big big fan of folk when i was a kid, mostly coz it was the only stuff my dad listened to that wasn't total .
anywayz, ol cat converted to islam in the 70s and from then on allah refused him permission to play heathen tunes.
saw a great doco with him last night, and apparently his belief or understanding in islam has changed, and now he thinks it is ok to make music again :)
never quite reaching the emotional harmonies of simon and garfunkel (at least, not for me) but he has such a nice, soothing voice and pleasant melodies. the stuff he was playing last night was really cool.
COR version: islam is , but less now. |

Interesting news though, I wonder what sort of stuff he'll write now. Some of his old stuff is great. |

the stuff i heard him playing last night sounded like he'd just picked up where he left off (at least musically, im sure the lyrics have prob changed). |

Your posts are much funnier since taking on your current avatar, as I can picture him shouting all of your posts. |

| I used to be quite the fan when I was younger as well. I'm interested in hearing new material. |

His Magik Suite or whatever was awesome. |
