"The Cat In The Window" #26 9/30/1967

I honestly don't recall this single from Petula Clark, the followup to "Don't Sleep In The Subway." It's not one of her more memorable records, and totally flopped in her native UK. An unusual song written by Gary Bonner and Alan Gordon, who also wrote "You Know What I Mean" for the Turtles. Pet was once offered two songs written by the then-unknown Walter Becker and Donald Fagen. She turned them down. Becker and Fagen, of course, went on to form Steely Dan in the 70's. RIP, Walter.
