If a series of unfortunate comparisons (like the ones to follow) cause listeners to equate British vocalist Amy Winehouse with Macy Gray, it’s only natural. Both come on like a hybrid of Billie Holiday and Lauryn Hill who’s had a tipple and then attempted one more late-night set at a supper club than they should have. Despite her boozy persona and loose-limbed delivery, though, Winehouse is an excellent vocalist possessing both Continue reading “Amy Winehouse – Frank (2003) [2008, Deluxe Edition]”

Amy Winehouse didn’t leave much behind in the vaults, and with her studio recordings already collected on 2011’s Lioness: Hidden Treasures, the only thing left was Amy Winehouse at the BBC, a deluxe set rounding up everything the singer cut for any of the BBC’s programs. This winds up as more of a video set than a CD one, as she had more appearances on television Continue reading “Amy Winehouse – At The BBC (2012) [CD + DVD]”

The qualities of a vocal genius don’t always become clear when she’s singing classic material. Often as not, her abilities to both personalize and transcend a lifeless song with a stellar performance reveal the character behind the singer. Both Billie Holiday and Otis Redding excelled no matter what they were recording, whether it was a timeless standard or a studio throwaway. This collection of Amy Winehouse material, released to coincide with the first Christmas season after her death in July 2011 Continue reading “Amy Winehouse – Lioness: Hidden Treasures (2011) {Japanese Edition}”

A collection of B-sides to Amy Winehouse’s massive Back to Black album, this eight-track set features a range of material (nearly all consisting of covers) and functions at nearly the same high level as the A-sides and album tracks — no small feat. The first track is a slower version of the Zutons’ song “Valerie” that Winehouse had done earlier with Mark Ronson for Ronson’s Version album (and also featured in the film 27 Dresses). The second is Sam Cooke’s “Cupid,” done refreshingly simply, and bolstered most by Winehouse’s expressive voice. The third is Toots & the Maytals’ “Monkey Man,” and here too Winehouse Continue reading “Amy Winehouse – Black To Black (2006) {2007, Deluxe Edition}”
