Did Soul Coughing ever have a top 40 hit?

Yes, a number of times. Soul Coughing emerged as one of the forefathers of the thriving Alternative-Rock movement of the post-Grunge era. Fronted by vocalist+guitarist Mike Doughty and including Mark De Gli Antoni on keyboard, Sebastian Steinberg on upright bass and Yuval Gabay on drums, the band formed in 1992 in New York City, New York USA. In mid-1996 they returned with a second full-length disc, "Irresistible Bliss", which reached the #6 on The Billboard Top Heatseekers chart and also appeared at #136 on The Billboard 200 Albums Sales list; in addition, it contained two Modern Rock top 40 hit singles: "Super Bon Bon" and "Soundtrack To Mary". Soul Coughing career was drawing to a close, when the band unleashed their third and final album, "El Oso"; the record climbed to the #49 slot on the Billboard's Top 200 upon its September 1998 release, spawning the smash hit "Circles", which peaked at #8 on The Modern Rock Tracks chart. http://www.100xr.com/100_XR/Artists/S/Soul_Coughing.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Oso Aug 05 08, 3:44 AM
