LaurenceD SUBS 13th Jan 2024		Added alternate side 2 label (3463668) with one different composer credit; "Was Dog A Doughnut?" = Cat Stevens, Jean Roussel, Bruce Lynch Side 1 on this copy is the same as 867801



Michael Warre SUBS 21st Feb 2023		B4) Was Dog A Doughnut? is credited by many musical historians as the starting point for the synth based New Wave music soon to follow!



Bgray1 1st Sep 2017		Added custom inner sleeve.

Magic Marmalade 13th Mar 2017		Review This disc sounds incredible! There has been a Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab re-issue which fetches a few bobs... but while I haven't heard that, it's difficult to see what improvements they could have made to the way this sounds. For those of us who are perhaps only casual Cat fans, only the lead track will be the familiar one, and maybe that makes people opt for greatest hits and best-ofs, rather than get his studio albums, but this has a lot more to offer. I has a lot of early-ish synth programming, and lots of noodly and twiddly sounds and noises, all wrapped around the familiar song writing style of Mr Stevens. Was Dog A Doughnut? is a particularly pleasing noodle, as well as Killin' Time... the vid I attached to an earlier comment. Sonically though, this has to be heard.... it'll knock you out of your shoes! 7 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?



Magic Marmalade 1st Aug 2016		I found a sealed copy of this at a boot fair yesterday... with import sticker and the little "clip" taken out of the sleeve. What gets me is how the recent vinyl culture thing of keeping the thing sealed affects me, for I sat for a full five minutes contemplating whether to open it or just stash it away somewhere (bury it in the garden like Samuel Pepys' cheese ?:)... ...eventually I snapped out of it, and thought: "What the hell am I doing?", and got the craft knife and opened it up. a gloriously preserved smell of 1977 came flooding out, and I really got my nose in the sleeve, and breathed deep... aaahhh, wonderful! Then I got to hear the music too! A lot to be said for playing the discs you own.
