Mona Bone Jakon 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe

Just got these and WOW! the re-mixes are amazing. The separation and clarity are stunning. You can now hear a lot of the subtle parts that were buried. The outtakes, demos & live material is equally great and the packaging and liner notes were very detailed. My only complaint (and it’s very small) is that I like to know the recording dates but perhaps that information was not available.I hope Yusuf will give other albums such as “Teaser And The Firecat”, “Catch Bull At Four” and “Buddha & The Chocolate Box” the same Royal treatment as his catalogue and musical legacy deserves it.

Wonderful collection from that time period.

Nice sound stage. Beautiful packaging. Worthy of Cat Stevens’s great early works.

Thanks for having this amazing collection available! It arrived in perfect condition!

The demos and alternate mixes and takes are very good. The live stuff does not address MBJ so much as his other releases close this Tea and Teaser. I don’t like MBJ like I do the other two so I did not have high expectations.

This is an amazing box set. Plenty of memorabilia, including an amateur recording of Cat in a festival. Top quality everything, but the Mona Bone Jakon's pressing. The music in the record sounds wonderful, top notch , but the pressing is noisy, some scratches not visible are present in the whole side A, and with less intensity in side B. I returned the first box set I received, and now I am listening to a new one. Same problem but less noticeable. If you can live with that you'll be happy.

This was shipped quickly. I was so excited. It was full of things I’ve never seen, and I’m a serious Cat Stevens fan. Sadly it was damaged. Return went well, but big confusion over replacement. I’m looking for another company that might have it

One LP came with two labels on it. See the attached photo.

Alles super. Gerne wieder.

Come l'altro cofanetto di Cat Stevens che ho acquistato, si tratta di un ottimo prodotto. Forse il live su vinile lascia un po' a desiderare: documento storico, senz'altro, però finisce lì. Il resto è Top. Remix e remaster eccellenti. Bravi fonici ( e bravo chi li ha lasciati lavorare).

The Cat Stevens box sets are the new bench mark by which others should be judged.

il box e le buste dei dischi hanno un angolo rovinato..come se avesse preso una botta..andava fatto un imballaggio migliore
