THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
'Reads remarkably like one of the more wide-eyed lyrics from his heyday. Yusuf Islam has been on quite a journey, but some things never change' Guardian
'Proves his life and career were utterly distinctive, even in the crazy world of pop' The Times In the whirlwind of 1960s London, Cat Stevens rose to fame almost overnight. Sharing stages with the likes of Jimi Hendrix, he became a household name with pop hits like 'Father and Son' and 'The First Cut Is the Deepest'. A near-fatal bout of tuberculosis in his early twenties was a turning point, propelling him into a lifelong quest for meaning. Emerging from illness with a new sense of purpose, he evolved into one of the defining singer-songwriter troubadours of the 1970s. Heartfelt songs like 'Wild World', 'Father and Son' and 'Peace Train' made him a generational voice in the quest for peace, ecological consciousness and global change. Then, at the peak of his fame, another brush with death - a near-drowning - led him to a massive transformative commitment to the Omniscient Power which miraculously saved him. After being gifted a copy of the Qur'an, he embraced Islam in 1977, then walked away from music, becoming Yusuf Islam, and dedicating his life to faith, family and humanitarian work. Cat on the Road to Findout is the uncensored story behind the headlines. Told in Yusuf's own words and through hand-drawn illustrations, with raw honesty and poetic insight, he reflects on his triumphs and trials - finally shedding light on all those hidden 'in-betweens'.
Yusuf/Cat Stevens is a globally renowned singer-songwriter and humanitarian. His 1970s albums, Tea for the Tillerman and Teaser and the Firecat, featuring classics like 'Wild World', 'Father and Son' and 'Peace Train', became defining works of their era. Yusuf/Cat Stevens has sold over one hundred million records, been streamed billions of times, and is a member of both the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Songwriters Hall of Fame. After embracing Islam in 1977, he established the UK's first government-aided Muslim faith schools and founded numerous charitable organisations. He is a recipient of the Man of Peace Award, the World Social Award and multiple honorary doctorates. In 2025 Tea for the Tillerman entered the Grammy Hall of Fame. He is married with five children and twelve grandchildren.
