Promenade Blue - Nick Waterhouse - CD is Tip-On, ""Mini""-LP Jacket w/ Insert. We can try as hard as we can to make sense of Promenade Blue, but in reality, context isn't really needed because the music on the album is so damn magnificent. In no uncertain terms, it represents Waterhouse's finest hour as a writer and bandleader - leveraging the musical partnerships he has built over many years to put something forth that is so fully realized and felt that it sparkles beatifically, reverberating with energy, heart, creativity, and vibe from start to finish. Nowhere is this more evident than on the album's opening track, ""Place Names,"" perhaps the most remarkable song in the Waterhouse catalogue. INNOVATIVE LEISURE
