Mike Doughty "Unsingable Name" from Haughty Melodic Live at High Noon Saloon Madison, WI May 4, 2006 PODCAST EXCLUSIVE!

Haughty Melodic came on in waves as one of my favorite records of 2005. I was quickly grabbed by "Madeline and Nine" and "Busting Up a Starbucks," but this was part of the second wave of obsession. Scrap's bowed bass is all the rhythm found in this rendition, which is really all that's needed. Doughty's rhythmic "small rock" guitar does most of the work during the verses, providing this sweet song with the bounce it needs. One of the songs I'm really glad to have recorded.
