    Nick Waterhouse "Time's All Gone" - 2012 LP

    The late 1920s/early 1930s built the foundation for what would become FM radio.  Big Band hits/ragtime/western story time....ahhhh pre-televsion era....Prohibition was ending and radio was hip....mashed potatoes, 5 scotches a night, 12 Chesterfields, then bedtime stories...that's right...you got to behave like a wild man...with your family!!!  How did we get here?...How can I turn on the radio now and it sounds like aliens fucking...Like a rusty blender....Just absolute crap....By the 1950s the radio began to shake...to have a little reverb....a backbone...Doo-wop, soul, R&B, and the earliest onset of rockNroll was brewing.....Nick Waterhouse is that exact era....This kid is suppose to be 25?? No way...There is no way he was born in 1987...Just no way....Waterhouse somehow heard that 1950s radio....He has channeled it....Buddy Holly was a hipster. Nick Waterhouse is a hipster. Any DJ on FM radio today is not a hipster because they are not 'hip'.....this is retro/doo-wop/vintage soundin' rock/fun at it's finest:
