Mike Doughty's new album, Golden Delicious, is a loose-limbed, freewheeling set that brings all the aspects of his singular muse together in one smart, humorous and eloquent package. Doughty's last offering, 2005's Haughty Melodic, was a sprawling, expansive set that took years to produce. On Golden Delicious, Doughty hewed close to his "dude theory" -- the idea of making a relaxed record that sounds like a bunch of dudes playing music for the pure joy of playing. It was cut with his touring band: keyboardist John Kirby, drummer Pete McNeal, and bass player Andrew "Scrap" Livingston, who moved over to guitar for the recording process. Semisonic's John Munson sat in on bass and recent GRAMMY winner Dan Wilson (Semisonic, Jewel, Dixie Chicks) returned as producer.

Customer Reviews




Paula MarquesMike Doughty's Golden Delicious continues in the incredibly satisfying trend of albums that are nothing like anything else he's put out before. Even while considering that 27 Jennifers has been recorded and released on two other seperate albums this version of it is fresh and different. The incredibly fun and catching Put It Down will have you singing the chorus everywhere you go and the lyrics "I seek not to understand but to be understood" prooves once again that Doughty remains the incomperable writer of understated and yet wholly compelling nuggets of pure genius.
