[Karaoke] AL STEWART - YEAR OF THE CAT - Miguel Lobo

I lived in Mexico City during the 1985 Earthquake. My memories from this year has not been kind... in my mind I can see destruction, suffering and empty and darkness buildings, but, two songs sound in my head when I remember those years, and thes songs are two of my favorites songs... and ... I don't know why. The Year of the Cat from Al Stewart and Valotte from Julian Lennon. Both songs was created on different years but, I met they in 1985, during my parent's effort to rebuild our lives... so, maybe that is the reason. For you... my karaoke version from: - THE YEAR OF THE CAT. (Al Stewart) I hope you like it. Your friend... Miguel Lobo. Year of the Cat is the seventh studio album by Al Stewart, released in 1976 and was produced and engineered by Alan Parsons; it is considered his masterpiece, its sales helped by the hit single "Year of the Cat", "one of those 'mysterious woman' songs," co-written by Peter Wood. The other single from the album was "On the Border". Stewart wrote "Lord Grenville" about the Elizabethan sailor and explorer Sir Richard Grenville (1542–1591). Stewart had all of the music and orchestration written and completely recorded before he even had a title for any of the songs. In a Canadian radio interview he stated that he has done this for six of The title track derives from a song Stewart wrote in 1966 called "Foot of the Stage" with prescient lyrics about Tony Hancock, one of Britain's favourite comedians who tragically committed suicide two years later. When Stewart discovered that Hancock was not well known in the United States, he went back to his original title "Year of the Cat". While Stewart is known for his guitar virtuosity, the song is recognized for producing amazing interplay of multiple guitars, piano, saxophone, violin and drums.
