I was interested to listen to Henry's vocal style.
I did this by going to:

Always wary of killing my Winamp Playlist - I was able to listen to the generous samples in Windows Media Player.
I did this by selecting from the album tracks on the LHS of the page on the cdbaby link,

In Program Files folder, double click Windows Media Player/then wmplayer/ wmplayer.exe - appears in the dialog box (open with) then click OK -and you are away!!
