Josh Turner is celebrating 15 years of Your Man with a special deluxe edition of the iconic album available Friday ( June 25th). Leading into the deluxe release, Turner is hosting a virtual album release event at 7pm CT on June 24 including performances of some of his most memorable hits from Your Man.
The Your Man Deluxe Edition features all 11 original tracks including collaborations with country icons John Anderson, Dr. Ralph Stanley, and Diamond Rio’s Marty Roe, Gene Johnson, and Dana Williams, plus live versions of the Triple-Platinum-selling title track “Your Man,” fan favorite and often celebrated “Me and God,” and multi-week No. 1 hit “Would You Go With Me.”
“Just the sheer fact that I’m celebrating 15 years since the release of my second record is kind of hard to believe,” says Josh. “We added three live versions of the singles that were on this record, and I went back and rewrote all the liner notes because there’s so many backstories and side stories to this record and how it’s affected people and just the interactions with the other artists and the collaborations. There’s just so much life that’s happened since this record has come out, so much has happened in my career.”
Josh is hoping the deluxe version will reach a new generation of fans. “Obviously, it’s already sold over two million copies so there’s a lot of people that have the original version of this record, but this younger generation they grew up in a world and they’ve grown up in a world where they were buying single songs, they were streaming stuff, they weren’t going out and buying the physical album or even the digital album for that matter. So, hopefully, this kind of encourages them to see the full body of work because it’s not just about ‘Your Man’ or ‘Would You Go With Me’ or ‘Me And God.’ There’s other songs on this record. (laughs) So, hopefully they’ll discover those for the first time.”
