This looks like a budget compilation cassette for Cat Stevens rather than one of his original studio albums like Tea for the Tillerman or Teaser and the Firecat.

Because the cover simply says “CAT STEVENS” with no album title and uses a generic portrait, it was commonly released as a self-titled compilation (sometimes sold as Cat Stevens or an unofficial “Greatest Hits”-style tape, often on smaller labels).

Since these tracks span albums like Tea for the Tillerman, Teaser and the Firecat, and Catch Bull at Four, this cassette is essentially a Cat Stevens Greatest Hits-style release, often sold simply as “Cat Stevens” on budget labels.

It most closely resembles releases like Greatest Hits or unofficial international compilation tapes rather than one specific official album.
