Album Notes:

Josh Ritter (born October 21, 1976) is an American singer-songwriter, guitarist and author who performs and records with The Royal City Band. Ritter is known for his distinctive Americana style and narrative lyrics. In 2006 he was named one of the “100 Greatest Living Songwriters” by Paste magazine.

 

Golden Age of Radio is the second studio album by American singer-songwriter Josh Ritter. It was Ritter’s first album to be released nationally after he was signed to Signature Sounds. According to his official website, Golden Age of Radio was originally self-released in 2001 and passed out at shows. This self-pressed version contained a different, solo version of the title track called “Country Song”, different mastering, and a different track order.

 

The album was received enthusiastically by critics, who frequently compared him to musicians such as Nick Drake, Bob Dylan, and Neil Young, but failed to reach a large audience in the United States. The album was a success in Ireland, where, thanks to good word-of-mouth and an opening spot on The Frames’ tour followed by frequent headlining gigs, Ritter is now considered “a minor celebrity.”

 

Golden Age of Radio was reissued on April 7, 2009 as a two-disc Deluxe Edition. The Deluxe Edition includes the complete original studio album along with a second bonus disc. The bonus disc contains solo acoustic versions of the original tracks (re-recorded by Ritter in Nashville of June 2008) as well as b-side and remix tracks, music videos, and a full color lyric and photo booklet.
