I remember when I first heard this song, I had to be all of 15-16 years of age, and yes I had my ear to the street and my ear to music at the same time. This was a song that made you stop what you were doing and listen up to what the Man was saying, as a matter, the song was able to say what you wanted it to say, not a word was spoken between you and the song, just you and some music, you listen to it and tell me what the song is saying to you, even today, the song speaks.

"Was Dog a Doughnut" was blasted at every block party in Harlem in 1977. Naturally, the crowd always went nuts. The song is infectious and soulful and still one of my favorites.

@thewrightlilbro I saw an interview with Moodymann and he said when he was growing up in Detroit in the late 60's he thought even The Doors were black!

I heard this on KNX fm back in 1977. I recorded it on 8 track. I played it to my dance class co-students and wanted to choreograph something to it but things intervened. Nice to hear it again, and i am SURPRISED this was done by Cat Stevens!!!!

@KatAshley2 I just finished reading that article and decided to google the song. Not what you think of when you think of Cat Stevens that's for sure.

The Roots (now well known as Jimmy Fallon's house band ) had this to say when
Cat appeared on the show last May: Cat Stevens came—it was surreal. We talked about an obscure album cut from 1977 called Was Dog A Doughnut? What was just him messing around for four minutes in the studio wound up being a staple in the hip-hop world, which he was very shocked to discover.

That's such a great story. This track had an unbelievable impact. Too bad he didn't make more tracks like this one.
