(1970) its been a long year but Cat is back looking healthy with a new look and a new sound. Cat came back on the scene with his third album " Mona Bone Jakon" which had songs such as "Lady D'Arbanville" "I wish, I wish" and "Trouble" this was in July 1970 and just a few months he released the very successful album "Tea For The Tillerman" with such songs like "Father And Son" "Wild World" "Where Do The Children Play?" and "On The Road To Find Out" after these two he went on to relase 7 more albums all in the seventies but with all this fame and fortune there was something bothering Cat and it went right to when he got out of hospital and throughout the seventies he experimented with different religions such as tarot cards and buddhism, he was doing this to try and find the meaning of why he was here on this earth and in 1977 when his brother returned from israel he brought a Qu'ran to Cat being aware of his spiritual searching and Cat took to it straight away and in 1978 he quit the music industry and became a Muslim who is now known as Yusuf Islam, or Just Yusuf.
