Nick Waterhouse, a guy from the Bay Area of California who has been seriously digging into the retro mine for some time.

One of the gems from that expedition is this track, released just a few weeks ago via Innovative Leisure Records out of Los Angeles (a new label to watch). Is That Clear is one of several tracks, including some brand new ones coming out today which give ample evidence the Retro movement is not only alive and well, but flourishing and making new fans in the process.

He has all the bases covered as far as access. If you go the Innovative Leisure Records site you'll be directed to at least half a dozen other sites he's on. It's well worth the ride. All his stuff is available via iTunes, but if I were you, I'd go for the vinyl 45's complete with retro perfect "vocal with orchestra" labels - just makes sense that way.

Here comes the weekend.
