The more, ahem, mature members of Team Hot Press are tickled several different colours that Al Stewart is acoustically performing the whole of his Year Of The Cat album on April 28, 2015 in Vicar St., Dublin.

Despite being released in 1976 as punk started to explode, the record was a multi-million seller on both sides of the Atlantic with the title-track and ‘On The Border’, a pre-‘If You Tolerate This Then Your Children Will Be Next’ song about the Spanish Civil War, also hitting the singles chart.
Looking at the clip of the Glaswegian performing ‘Year Of The Cat’ on Top Of The Pops you could say that visually he was the Hozier of his day.
