Sunshine - From 'The Flip Is Another Honey' by MikeDoughty published on 2012-09-17T15:54:14Z From 'The Flip Is Another Honey' http://mikedoughty.com/TFIAH The title of Mike Doughty's 'The Flip Is Another Honey', taken from a 1957 Variety Review of a Jerry Lee Lewis single, means "the b-side is also fantastic." Doughty covers tunes from surprising sources, like John Denver, Cheap Trick, and the Broadway musical Guys and Dolls. "Take Me Home, Country Roads" is a cover of the John Denver song, sung with Rosanne Cash; "Sunshine" finds Doughty rapping Doughty-esque-ly around samples of Denver's voice. "Sit Down, You're Rocking the Boat" is a straight-up version of the song from Guys and Dolls; "Reach Out" is an obscure Cheap Trick tune from the soundtrack of the early 80's animated film Heavy Metal--which segues into a version of Josh Wink's 90's EDM classic, "Higher State of Consciousness". Except for three songs that were performed live, in the studio, with a cello and piano, Doughty played, or programmed, every sound.

This is great! 2012-10-23T06:32:24Z Comment by Craig Laurer Exquisite sampling plus poetic rap. This is Mike Doughty. I don't know what the fuck he was trying to do with the other John Denver song on this album, he shoulda left that one to Rosanne Cash to do by herself. This song makes up for it. 2012-09-21T01:37:37Z Comment by ivyhurst "She's not a lush, she's a juniper enthusiast" - f'n brilliant line.
