Note: If you are looking for actual download links, I cannot provide them. However, I highly recommend exploring Qobuz, Apple Music Lossless (which uses ALAC, functionally identical to FLAC), or purchasing the recent “Cat Stevens – The Complete Island Albums” box set and ripping it yourself.

If your "upd" includes the recent remasters, you are in for a treat. Early CD releases of albums like Mona Bone Jakon and Tea for the Tillerman were often thin and brittle.
