Info for Back To Black

„Back To Black“ is the second album from London-based chanteuse Amy Winehouse. Although her 2003 debut was a success, her rowdy offstage behavior became the focus of tabloids and critics instead of the music. Because of this, Winehouse stepped out of the spotlight and concentrated on putting the focus back on her music. Three years later, her sophomore release has surprised critics and excited her fanbase. Combining a strong, Jazzy vocal style with often frank lyrical content recounting tales of love and loss, Winehouse is a truly talented songwriter with a good ear for melody, making this album an essential purchase. Includes the single „Rehab“.

„Back To Black“ production is an artful blend of sophisticated '60s R&B and 21st-century stylistic poaching, with 'Tears Dry on Their Own' incorporating elements of Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell's 'Ain't No Mountain High Enough,' and Winehouse sounding like Billie Holiday fronting a reggae band on the old-fashioned cheating song 'Just Friends.' Densely packed with musical history and often conjuring a dark, Portishead-esque atmosphere, „Back To Black“ is a sumptuous-sounding collection freighted with blunt confessionals of a lush life.
