since his days with Cat Stevens. His

Earth Performance:
Yusuf performed in Hamburg (HSH Nordbank
Arena) for the Live Earth Concert
in Germany, presented by Al Gore.
Yusuf was the closing act of the German
concert and what a reception he received.
His performance was the most passionate
that I have seen to date. It is almost
like the old Cat is back. And, as
we have come to enjoy, Alun Davies
was by his side.

Four
Fans Adventure in Porchester:
Four fans
from this very site were lucky enough to attend the exclusive
Concert at Porchester Hall on March 1 2007 "Yusuf's
Cafe Session" We have their stories of the event
and photographs. I would also like to take this time to
say that their story proves all those recent slimy gossip
internet magazines reports wrong,that 'Yusuf will not
talk to unveiled women'. Yusuf not only talked to these
four women, but had his picture taken alongside them as
well. So much for gossip mags' unbiased reporting. These
pictures tell it all.>>>>> Read
