Rachel Benbow Murdy, Mike Doughty's ex-girlfriend, supplied the vocal on Ruby Vrooms "Janine." Doughty had Murdy go out to a payphone in Sheridan Square in New York and improvise a long, meandering song into their answering machine.
Whoa - what?! Circles over Janine?! Don't get me wrong. . . Janine is totally a 'Best Of' - but ftw? Get me some Sugar Free Jazz and we'll talk :) But seriously - thanks for posting this.
Thanks for posting this, even if you don't like it, haha. This song gives me chills. I think it's one of the best love songs ever. I love how he even sang the answering machine parts. "Moon over your butterfly wings..."
Apparently this happened the day before I moved to Madison. Fuck.

I was named after this song..my mom overheard it on the radio while in the hospital...but couldn't remember the spelling haha.
But I think it could have been the Trooper version she heard..
