Yep great song. I don't know the artists of the time. Cats in the Cradle is one of those songs that is a bit of poetry, song, and story all wrapped into one.
Great song. I thought Cat Stevens was the original artist.
This has been bugging the hell out of me, as I thought so also. And numerous others do so (from my searching).
Turns out, Stevens never even covered the song.
Why the confusion? I guess because the song sounds like Stevens and has the same lyrical style. And that combined with the collision on the name, where the 8 track [remember those?] I had of Stevens was titled "Cats Cradle" and from just a couple years later.
This was from almost 50 years ago, but it is not like I forgot. I can remember clearly that I have always thought it was Stevens.
