Description:
* Nebraska-born singer-songwriter Josh Rouse blends American roots music, contemporary folk, alt-pop, and indie rock into a sound that, refreshingly, defies easy categorization. With evocative songwriting, unvarnished emotion, an eloquent sense of longing and warm-hearted authenticity, Rouse has steadily won critical raves and built a devoted following ever since his '98 debut album Dressed Up Like Nebraska was released on Rykodisc subsidiary Slow River a decade ago.
* Spanning 1998-2005 with 32 cuts over 2CDs , the acclaimed singer-songwriter's first-ever compilation collects hits & favourites and previously unreleased tracks from Josh's personal treasure-filled vaults.
* Disc 1 features 19 favorites culled from the Slow River and Rykodisc releases Dressed Up Like Nebraska ('98), Chester ('99), Home ('00), Under Cold Blue Stars ('02), 1972 ('03), and Nashville ('04).
* Disc 2 opens with the six-songs that comprised Rouse's 2001 EP Bedroom Classics, Vol. 1, pressed in a limited edition of only 750 copies and now an impossible-to-find collectible. Also features 7 previously unreleased recordings.
