Cat Stevens remaster cd's


I still have the lp's of his first 3 albums(Tea for the Tillerman, Teaser and the Firecat, & Mona Bone Jakon)...even plan to frame them as "artwork" for my game room. They are not in great condition due to the poor quality trntables that played them way back when. I plan to replace them eventually after my current tt is repaired but also would like to get them on cd. I see they have been remastered and even have some "bonus" tracks. Was wondering if anybody has heard them and can comment on the quality of the remasters?

Jaybo, are you referring to the reissues done in 2000 or the more recent ones with the bonus materials? Some have said the 2000 reissues are as good as the 2008 and I'm not sure I'm really interested in the bonus tracks anyways. Not sure if the 2008 bonus stuff is all on the 2nd disc and the 1st disc is the same original songs only but there's just something that rubs me the wrong way when I listen to a cd of an old album and it's not exactly the same tracks start to finish.
