Cerita-Cerita Rock N' Roll: Cat Stevens

Some of the most distinctive music in pop history has been written and performed by Yusuf Islam, back to a time in the 1970s when he went by a different name: Cat Stevens. He would mix the rhythms of pop with themes of spirituality, churning out hits like Peace Train, Wild World as well as Father and Son. When he became a Muslim, he changed his name and even gave up performing for a while to concentrate on his faith and philanthropy. We take a look at who was Cat Stevens and who is Yusuf Islam.
