Footnotes to Plato from the foothills of the Superstition Mountains

Saturday Night at the Oldies: Cat Songs

Harry Chapin, Cat's in the Cradle.  A great song with an important message by a songwriter (1942-1981) who died too young. 

Bob Dylan, Cat's in the Well

Bent Fabric, Alley Cat

Tokens, The Lion Sleeps Tonight

Rooftop Singers, Tom Cat.  From those far-off and fabulous hootenanny days.

Norma Tanega, Walkin' My Cat Named 'Dog.'  Tanega was a mid-'60s one-hit wonder.  What became of her?  Story here.

Kinks, Phenomenal Cat

Lovin' Spoonful, Nashville Cats

Buck Owens, I Got a Tiger By the Tail

Al Stewart, Year of the Cat.  HT to Jeff Hodges for reminding me of this one.
