M. Ward – Transistor Radio (Vinyl)
Part of Merge Record's 25th Anniversary reissue campaign, this vinyl re-issue of M. Ward's excellent 2005 release, Transistor Radio, includes a CD w/ 4 bonus tracks and download card.
There's such a casual, old-timey feel to much of the album that it's easy to get caught up by its charms and forget to focus on Ward's writing, which would be a mistake. Texture and detail separate M. Ward from other solo singer-guitarists, but his general songwriting formula is what gets him to the peak of exceptional list in the first place.
It's a deeper, more rewarding listen, rivaling End of Amnesia for Ward's strongest release at the time. Guest appearances include John Parish on drums, Howe Gelb on piano.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
