Started working as a music writer as a side job while employed at a record shop, and for over 18 years I’ve contributed to music magazines, disc guide books, mooks, and web media. As a writer my main field is Western music, but as a listener for over 35 years, I always try to keep my curiosity alive with the motto “I like what I like.” I have experience playing in bands, where I was a bassist who handled songwriting and composition. Instruments I’ve played include bass, guitar, and piano. I began studying English in my mid-40s and continue to do so today.

The Kitty Cat Song

The Kitty Cat SongThe Troggs

This is a song by The Troggs, a rock band formed in the UK in 1964, depicting a charming world of cats.

It was included on their debut album From Nowhere, released in July 1966, and is their garage-rock-style arrangement of Lee Dorsey’s original.

In contrast to the raw intensity of their signature hit “Wild Thing,” this track stands out for its light, humorous touch.

Its friendly melody, themed around the adorable gestures and charms of cats, makes it a perfect pick for pet lovers and fans of 1960s pop rock.
