After a string of gold albums Cat Stevens began to divert off what made him popular and basically was starting to fall out of view by the public. Buddha and the Chocolate Box was basically a return to his original form as defined on both "Tea For The Tillerman" and
"Teaser and the Firecat" albums.
The songs are basically in the 4 mins zone and are very acoustic guitar based and are kept to the bare minimum. The song "oh very young" actually once again brought a top 10 hit to Cat Stevens and to this day is regarded as one of his better albums.
I first heard Cat Stevens at University and remember picking up all his albums and "Buddha" was an album I played a lot!
