Editorial Reviews:

From Amazon.co.uk
Amy Winehouse's second album, Back to Black, is one of the finest soul albums, British or otherwise, to come out for years. Frank, her first album, was a sparse and stripped-down affair; Back to Black, meanwhile, is neither of these things. This time around, she's taken her inspiration from some of the classic 1960's girl groups like the Supremes and the Shangri-Las, a sound particularly suited to her textured vocal delivery, while adding a contemporary songwriting sensibility. With the help of producers Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi, "Rehab" becomes a gospel-tinged stomp, while the title track (and album highlight) is a heartbreaking musical tribute to Phil Spector, with it's echoey bass drum, rhythmic piano, chimes, saxophone and close harmonies. Best of all, though, is the fact that Back to Black bucks the current trend in R&B by being unabashedly grown-up in both style and content. Winehouse's lyrics deal with relationships from a grown-up perspective, and are honest, direct and, often, complicated: on "You Know I'm No Good", she's unapologetic about her unfaithfulness. But she can also be witty, as on "Me & Mrs Jones" when she berates a boyfriend with "You made me miss the Slick Rick gig". Back to Black is a refreshingly mature soul album, the best of its kind for years. --Ted Kord

Album Description
Hailed by Newsweek Magazine as a cross between Billie Holiday and Lauryn Hill, British soul singer Amy Winehouse's U.S. debut, Back To Black hits the US amid a flurry of accolades, radio and TV buzz unprecedented in recent years for a young siren.

Her brassy mix of emotive vocals tinged with 60's girl-group stylings, sly funk, and anguished jazz, sparked the New York Daily News to crown Back To Black a "marvelous debut that would do Etta James proud" while New Yorker Magazine called her "a fierce English performer whose voice combines the smoky depths of a jazz chanteuse with the heated passion of a soul singer," and Spin Magazine affirming "there's never been A British star quite like her."

Back To Black smolders with a bristling fusion of old school doo-wop/soul inflected uprisings, (the charismatic singer/songwriter wrote or co-wrote all of the songs on the album) brewing instant classics such as the Shirley Ellis influenced "Rehab," the Supremes tinged title song "Back To Black," the aching "Wake Up Alone," and the album's closer, "Addicted."

BAD PACKING July 25, 2008
The vinyl was not correctly packed, i don't know if they couldn't find a proper box in Amazon or wherever was packed and sent, so the record would comfortably fit in there; when i got the package, the vinyl nearly fitted in the box so it was sligthly folded from one side, sligthly BUT still folded so at the begining the sound was a bit weird, its not like a record will recover shape all by it self, but i did what i could to make recover the flat shape.

It was disappointing to find my poor pretty vinyl forced to fit on a box.

This album is terrible. Winehouse grabs her attention by being a druggie, not showing up at gigs, and by being just plain weird. Her voice and music are lame. I can't believe people buy her music. There are a whole lot of better choices out there. I would say that the rich get richer when we purchase their music but in her case I think she goes out and buys more drugs. Please don't make her a martre by buying her music.

Just got into it July 10, 2008
I was hanging out and heard a cut on the CD and I was sold. I heard Rehab but didn't think much of it but she can get down with the best of them.

I keep going back to this excellent album July 10, 2008
I love this album. I keep playing it over and over again, and it never gets old. The rest of the album is just as good as the radio tracks.

This is the kind of album that I've been wishing for years that Christina Aguilera would record: a classic, Motown-esque power collection of great tunes, backed by solid instrumental work. (No cliched guitar riffs on this album - we're talking horns, keyboards, backing vocals, strings - you name it.) Winehouse has the same fantastic voice, but less of the annoying R&B coloratura that Aguilera has, so she's dynamite on these soulful tunes.

I love Winehouse's raw, pouty, expressive voice, even if she can't articulate worth a damn. (She must have gone to the Stevie Nicks school of pronunciation) She could sing me the phone book and I would love every minute.
