My understanding was that he gave up music after converting to Islam in 1977, much like Louis Farrakhan did after his conversion. (How many knew that Farrakhan — as Louis Walcott — was a promising concert violinist in his younger days?) I believe Cat issued his first album since 1977 earlier this year under the name Yusuf, but I've not heard it.
His new CD An Other Cup by Yusuf was released in November 2006.
edit: the Amazon link has sound clips NFI blah blah blah...
