This album, Izitso, released by Cat Stevens in 1977, is an interesting piece in his discography as it sees the folk rock artist experimenting extensively with electronic music instruments, like synthesizers and drum machines. This blend of traditional folk rock and pop rock with a new electronic and synthpop style gives the album a unique sound and is seen by some as foreshadowing the direction of popular music in the following decades. One of the most talked-about tracks is the instrumental "Was Dog a Doughnut?", which has been recognized as a pioneering song in contemporary electro and hip-hop genres. The record comes in a gatefold sleeve, which often includes the printed lyrics or other artwork, making it a great addition for collectors or fans of this influential singer-songwriter.
