• Good, trashy soul
  I like her soulful trashy, gypsy sound. Like a drunk Etta James, Shirley Bassey or a really trashed Aretha! Yes, the vocal inflection is overdone and a bit grating. But even some of the singers she seems to be trying to channel were overdoing it too. I would prefer this music played with a real band, that cheesy rhythm section is really weak. The horsn sound okay though. They may be real.

• Amy Winehouse Back to Black
  Amy Winehouse Back to Black CD is Excellent a given 5 stars.
  Amy Winehouse in my opinion has a marvelous gifted talent.
  Amy Winehouse reminds me of the old jazz and blues singers.
  I am hoping that Amy Winehouse will have many years of good health and happiness ahead of her to continue providing the public with her gifted talents.
  This Back to Black CD shows the range of Ms. Winehouse's talents. It brings you to intimate jazz or blues clubs with that special someone.
  Thank you... more info

• Believe the hype !
  If you read my other reviews one thing should become very clear:
  I'm 100% old school...
  500 reviews on Amazon, and its rare for me to purchase or review anything made after the late '70s...
  and for a really good reason: I think American music lost its vibe and groove with the advent of drum machines and digital music...
  Great talent has emerged, but to me we've yet to escape the musical cheesiness of the '80s...
  an era where BIG and FAT went out...
  Then along came... more info

• BAD PACKING
  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... more info
