I am trying to get a value from a JSon formatted string. It was to get album info from a website called Freebase.
My result is like this:

I am looking to get the first album title, Definitely Maybe, from this list.
I have tried parsing the string like this:
JObject o = JObject.Parse(jsonString);
string album = (string)o[""];
But no matter what I have tried I don't know what to put in those quotes.
How would I get this specific value or be able to search for it?
Thanks
