Norma Tanega - I Don't Think It Will Hurt If You Smile (Vinyl) Texas Alabama Shakes let their mostNorma Tanega is best known for her single Walkin My Cat Named Dog which became an unlikely international hit in 1966. It not only brought her into the spotlight, but to the UK where she toured, appeared on TV and started a long term relationship with Dusty Springfield.
