Radio Musicola
''Radio Musicola'' is the third solo studio album by the English singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Nik Kershaw. The album was released in late 1986, on the label MCA Records, two and a half years after Kershaw's successful album, ''The Riddle''. It was Kershaw's first studio album to feature him as producer. It also features guest backing vocalists, including Icehouse's lead vocalist Iva Davies, and Night's lead vocalist Stevie Lange.
The album was released to critical acclaim, but wasn't as successful as Kershaw's previous albums, peaking at #47 on the UK Albums Chart, and achieved silver status from the BPI in 1986. Four singles were issued from ''Radio Musicola'', but none of them reached the Top 20, a first for Kershaw. However, Kershaw did find some minor success with its lead single "When a Heart Beats" (which was not featured on the LP release, only on the cassette and CD versions of the album). The album (to date) remains Kershaw's last album to make the Top 60.
After the original release, the album remained out-of-print on any format for many years. However, the album became available via online MP3 download on major sites such as Amazon, and iTunes.
==Background==
The album showcased Kershaw's frustration at the time, with subjects of integrity - media scepticism (particularly towards tabloid journalism), privacy, insecurity and mass-produced run-of-the-mill pop music ("Why can't you let us do it like Joni does it? There you go again, giving it your very best - trying so hard to make it sound like all the rest"). The subject is reflected in the cover artwork's concept. The LP record release featured 1950's style spoof advertisements with the song titles woven in, some of which were replicated in the Compact Disc's booklet.
