After Monday's post The first shot will be cyber, there could only be one choice for today. Here's P.P. Arnold with the Cat Stevens classic:
On German TV, 1967.
Whatever you may think of Cat Stevens, aka Yusuf Islam – his comments on Salman Rushdie, for instance – he could certainly write songs.
Other versions:
Sheryl Crow
Rod Stewart
Cat Stevens
P.P. Arnold, originally from LA, abandoned the Ike and Tina Turner Revue when it arrived in London, and made her career here – "A young black woman on her own in America in a white environment would not have been treated as well as I was in England."
