Hi all, sorry for the question, I couldn't find an answer to it. So, what type of mobile software for IOs are you using for listening to music? I have heard about Enso, do you know something more about it?

FITZ & THE TANTRUMS "pickin' up the pieces" cd, 2010

career stats:
studio albums........2
singles..................8

this album...........#140 US
singles:
"breakin' the chains of love".....no chart action
"moneygrabber".....................no chart action
"L.O.V".................................no chart action
"winds of change"..................no chart action
"don't gotta work it out"..........no chart action

picked this one up last year as one of those "3 for $10" discount bin purchases...
got this one because i'd not heard of Fitz....
now, when I buy those discount ones I don't know, I always try to pick a genre for the album
from the cover art and the band name and if im stuck there I look at the tack names...
in this case I was guessing jazz...
I was pretty close,
lots of jazzy, funk ladenned soul in a nice fusion of the styles...
lovely tunes and melodies and not a guitar in sight just keys, percussion, drums, flute, sax and bass (and vocals!)
nothing bad on this one, just a reasonably good album

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

MELODY GARDOT "worrisome heart" cd, 2008

career stats:
studio albums............4
singles.....................11
ep's..........................4

this album.............#80 US, #93 AU...#172 UK
singles:
"worrisome heart".....no chart action
"quiet fire"...............no chart action
"goodnite"...............no chart action

debut album from this lady o jazz....
for someone so young(22 at time of this album) she sure has a sexy, sultry,vunerable voice...
she has the notes and the tones or jazz....
not sure how this stacks up against the great female jazz singers because im not a huge fan of the genre, I sometime wish Jazzbo
was here to enlighten us/me on Melody....
I can totally imagine being in some dark atmospheric smoky blues/jazz club listening to this stuff and can picture her singing these
songs, leaving the audience of one enthralled and mesmerized by her...
all up a very good album IMO, looking foreward to pulling out the other one of hers I own also!!!

ENGELBRT HUMPERDINCK "at his very best" cd, 2000

career stats:
studio albums.........68
singles..................54

this album.............#5 UK

one of the great pop, crooner voices in the history of popular music IMO,
up there with Tom Jones, 1970s Elvis and John Farnham for sure...
this compilation contains twenty tracks, twelve of which would be considered to have
come from his classic years...
the remaining eight are modern recordings from the late 1990s and the year 2000...
for the most part the newer tracks are ok, his voice is still good but the the songs are just okay...
well, all except two of them, one being a very embarrassing disco/dance version of "strangers in the night"!
all up though,
a very good album from one of the finest voices in the business.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

worst track: strangers in the night
best track: release me

3...dance the night away **
4...sometimes when we touch **

6...a little more time *
7...don't tell me you love me **
8...youre what love should be **
9...release me ***
