I’ve purchased a few more albums from Amazon… Katie Melua and Smokie. Sadly, the Smokie album appears to have been re-mastered or re-recorded… the guy singing doesn’t sound like Chris Norman and everything sounds a bit Schmaltzy. DANG IT! Shoulda previewed the tracks!
I am trying to convince myself the money I am spending now is offset by not spending money on Rhapsody.
