Cat Stevens is/was alright.
I had that Tea for the Tillerman album.
I din't know that his mother was Swedish with the name Ingrid Wickman.
Yusuf Islam (born Steven Demetre Georgiou, 21 July 1948), commonly known by his former stage name Cat Stevens, is a British singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, humanitarian, and education philanthropist.[1] His 1967 debut album reached the top 10 in the UK, and the album's title song "Matthew and Son" charted at number 2 on the UK Singles Chart. His albums Tea for the Tillerman (1970) and Teaser and the Firecat (1971) were both certified triple platinum in the US by the RIAA.[2] His musical style consists of folk, pop, rock and Islamic music.[3][4][5]
In 2006, he returned to pop music – releasing his first album of new pop songs in 28 years, titled An Other Cup.[12][13] With that release and for subsequent ones, he dropped the surname "Islam" from the album cover art – using the stage name "Yusuf" as a mononym.[
In December 1977, Stevens converted to Islam,[10] and he adopted the name Yusuf Islam the following year.
Steven Georgiou, born on 21 July 1948 in the Marylebone area of London,[16] was the third child of a Greek Cypriot father, Stavros Georgiou (b. 1900),[17] and a Swedish mother, Ingrid Wickman (b. 1915).[18] He had an older sister, Anita, and a brother, David.[16] The family lived above the Moulin Rouge, a restaurant that his parents operated on the north end of Shaftesbury Avenue which was a short walk from Piccadilly Circus in the Soho theatre district of London. All family members worked in the restaurant.[16] His parents divorced when he was about eight years old, but they continued to maintain the family restaurant and live above it.
