I recently picked up the Real Gone Music reissue CD, which is in stereo and comes from the master tapes. In Pat's database, this is one of two CDs with the song in stereo. The other one is Dick Bartley's On The Radio Vol. 2, but the song is taken from vinyl on this comp. The handful of other discs with the song are all listed as having the song in mono.

How does the CD sound overall? It went out
of print before I could order it and I
haven't looked elsewhere yet. On the vinyl
lp reissue that I bought a few years ago,
both Walkin' My Cat Named Dog and A Street
That Rhymes At 6 AM sound like they had some
very minor tape damage.

This one was always a favorite of mine as a kid. Our family always liked the odd types of pop for some reason.

Last year I sent this one to my brother to see if he remembered it at all. His response? "It should have stayed forgotten!"

I know I'm in the right company here when folks bring these up from time to time. I'd have to check on the copy I have. Last time I bought it,
it was on an Amazon download, (Probably mp3.) I think it was a collection of women of the 20th century. I'll edit a reply when I get a chance to find it.

I haven't listened to the entire disc, but skimming through, I don't hear any evidence of noise reduction, and the source tapes used appear to be low generation (perhaps the first gen original master).

I just listened to "Walkin' My Cat Named Dog" from start to finish. I don't hear any obvious tape damage anywhere in the song. There is a very, very brief dropout in the left channel at 2:01, but I likely wouldn't have caught it if I hadn't been wearing headphones. It's really minor.

"A Street That Rhymes At 6 A.M." also has no obvious tape damage.

OT:

I just learned today that Norma is the artist who did the song, "You're Dead" from the TV series "What We Do In The Shadows." How spooky that she died
the same year that show took off as a hit, following the movie of the same name. (2019)

As of today Real Gone Music has CD copies for sale if you
order direct from them.
