Jamie recommends "Doo-Wops and Hooligans" by Bruno Mars

I think one of the best albums I listened to in 2010 was “Doo-Wops and Hooligans” by Bruno Mars. Last year he penned some of the catchiest tunes on the radio, but his solo effort is terrific. His voice at times is reminiscent of a young Michael Jackson, but he brings his own blend of tone and soul to his songs. From beginning to end the album is wonderful. We’ve all heard “Just the Way You Are” and his new single “Grenade” is getting a lot of play, but his playful side is revealed on “Marry Me,” along with an introspective side with “Talking to the Moon.” If you like talented musicians and have a minute, check out Bruno Mars.
