Cat Stevens - Teaser And The Firecat Vinyl Album

Cat Stevens - Teaser And The Firecat Vinyl Album

Teaser and the Firecat is an album released by Cat Stevens in 1971. It contains 10 songs including hits "Morning Has Broken," "Moonshadow," and "Peace Train." It is also the title of a children's book written and illustrated by Stevens. The story features the title characters from the album cover, top-hatted young Teaser and his pet Firecat, who attempt to put the moon back in its place after it falls from the sky. Published in 1972, the book has been out of print since the mid-1970s. The album was a commercial success, surpassing the heights achieved by Stevens' previous album, Tea for the Tillerman, reaching both the UK and US Top 3 and also spending fifteen weeks at the top of the Australian charts, becoming the biggest-selling album of the country in 1972. In 1977 an animated version, narrated by Spike Milligan, using the song "Moonshadow", was a segment in Fantastic Animation Festival. In November 2008, a 'Deluxe Edition' was released featuring a second disc of demos and live recordings.

Both the album cover and the vinyl album are in great condition. The album cover opens to one inside with all lyrics and another side with full head shot of Cat Stevens. The inner sleeve is the original generic sleeve that came with the album.
