Foreigner (CD)
There are very few singer-songwriters who have a unique sound and a substantial body of work. After years of TV commercials for Cat Stevens, this young reviewer (23 years old) got pretty sick of hearing the sound of Cat Stevens' songs in 15-second segments. With the soundtrack to Harold and Maude, I began to love Cat Steven's unique phrasing and personal writing style. I heard the major albums, which are great, but I found a real gem with Foreigner. The first side is an interesting experiment that sounds grandiose today (though the recordings/engineering on this album are wonderful in general). His thoughts are allowed to flow in this longer piece, which allows Cat's songwriting to "breathe" and ramble outside the constraints of radio-ready singles. The second side is great as well. There are shorter songs, but they are murky and enigmatic, showing a dark side of Cat. My favorite track is "How Many Times," a really gut-wrenchingly soulful piece about the monotony of a life without meaning.
