Ruth-Ann Boyle - What about Us? (digital distribution)

This is Ruth-Ann Boyle's first solo album, which was only provided through digital distribution. There seems to be no plans to publish physical copies of the album, nor lossless digital downloads.

Ruth-Ann Boyle (born 26 April 1970 in Sunderland) is an English pop music singer who became famous during the 1990s. Together with producers Tim Kellett and Robin Taylor-Firth, she formed the British band Olive. The band became world famous with "You're Not Alone" in 1996.

In 1999 she sang lead vocals on tracks "Gravity of Love" and "Silence Must Be Heard" on Enigma's album "The Screen Behind the Mirror", the former of which was also released as a single. She also performed guest-vocals for their 2003 album Voyageur.

Her first solo album 'What About Us?', produced by Michael Cretu of Enigma, was released on iTunes in 2007

• Note: This is upcoded from lossy M4A streams. The reason I did this is because iTunes media generally includes DRM and encrypted metadata that embeds personally-identifiable information in media files. It was necessary to transcode the media to remove this information. I decided that upcoding to FLAC would be best, since it would not result in any further quality loss, but wouldn't bloat the filesizes as much as raw WAV decoding would.
