This 1976 concert recording works as both a portrait of Cat Stevens onstage and a live best-of, as it contains versions of many of his biggest hits, such as "Moonshadow," "Wild World," and "Peace Train." While the arrangements of these folk-pop classics are pretty similar here to those of the studio versions, both Stevens and his band lean into the tunes with twice as much intensity. The electricity is palpable as Stevens--a full-on pop idol at the time--feeds off the enthusiastic audience's energy and sends it back out to them with even more emotional firepower.
