I didnt know him. I ve just listen to him on deezer.com (http://www.deezer.com/#music/playlist/12) and that sounds very good! You can listen all the songs, but you have to add them on playlists. Seem that if you add more than 2 of the same album, you can't listen to the others, so just share the songs among a few playlists.
