  Radio Waves is a compilation album of live performances by American musician Joan Osborne, released in 2022. The album is composed of live performances of many of her most famous songs and cover versions across several years.
  
  ## Critical reception
  
  Mark Montgomery French of PopMatters scored this album eight out of 10, calling Osborne "an artist of restless consistency" and stating that the album "hangs together beautifully as a complete work". In Relix, Jeff Tamarkin noted "the evolution of her writing skills through the years" that adds up to a "formidable collection". American Songwriter's Lee Zimmerman scored this album a 3.5 out of five and summed up his review, "Granted, Radio Waves is, in effect, a stopgap effort designed to buy time until Osborne can resume touring in earnest. Still, given that it’s a means of putting her skills back into the spotlight, it succeeds admirably." Writing for the Associated Press, Stephen Wine noted that Osborne is an "astute interpreter" of rhythm and blues and rock songs who is "creative in reimagining familiar tunes" with varied instrumentation and styles of performance.
