SKINNING THE CAT: I just

SKINNING THE CAT: I just got the Flaming Lips' "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots" album and it's great, but in listening to the first track, "Fight Test," I realized it sounded a bit familiar- quite similar to a certain favorite campfire song of my youth that was also in the movie "Harold & Maude." A Google search later, my suspicions were confirmed: Flaming Lips Settle Cat Stevens Lawsuit. Because despite having converting to fundamentalist Islam and "disavowing" all of his '70s music, the erstwhile Mr. Katz is still quite territorial about "Father and Son," apparently.
