 "Year Of The Cat" is a perfect album, practically devoid of any formal defects; a refined, cultured, and captivating product from the very graphic design with which it is presented, where high-class singer-songwriter pop, sometimes with almost crooner-like tones, blends with folk with various more or less rock nuances already well established in previous years.
