Notes

All songs by Cat Stevens. 
Originally released in 1970. 
MSFL INC. Edition, Under License From A&M. Original Master Recording, Pressed In Japan Tea for the Tillerman is a highly-regarded album by singer-songwriter Cat Stevens. This album, Stevens' second during 1970, is also noteworthy for having four of its songs ("Where Do the Children Play?", "On the Road to Find Out", "Tea for the Tillerman" and "Miles from Nowhere") featured in Hal Ashby and Colin Higgins' black comedy Harold and Maude (1971). Stevens, a former art student, created the artwork featured on the record's cover.
Songs from this album have been recorded by a diverse range of artists, from Mr. Big ("Wild World") to Boyzone ("Father and Son") to 36 Crazyfists ("Sad Lisa").
In 2003, the album was ranked number 206 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time. In 2006, the album was included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. In 2007, "Tea for the Tillerman" was included in the list of "The Definitive 200 Albums of All Time".
Tea For The Tillerman is one of Cat Stevens' finest albums and a gem in the crown of early 1970s singer/songwriterdom. Stevens manages to have his cake and eat it too, simultaneously achieving pop accessibility and artistic relevance. The feel is decidedly gentle and spare. Apart from the occasional string section, Stevens is accompanied only by a three-piece band as he sings his introspective lyrics with appreciable favor.
