Followed her drug crazed news But have never actually listened to her before today. Picked this up in Bargains bin. I thought she would be techno shit or maybe even rock/ grunge type music (judging by her looks.)
BUT NO! really sort of jazz/blues bassey stuff. Actually very good _________________ www.ratscafe.org

Absolutely agree Dave, I've got a couple of her CDs as well. Go to You tube and have a listen and get an eye full of her a few years back, she was hot. |

Amy Winehouse dies aged 27. 23/7/11
I had heard a lot about her in the media (most not good) and assumed her music was rock, punk or grungy (not that thats bad music). But Boy was I wrong! fantastic stuff and any who have never heard any of her music should.
I also saw a programme that interviewed her father. Very close supportive family, and IMO so very sad it happened with such support. I hope I never have to go thru similar with my children.
My heart goes out to her family and friends at this time at there tragic loss.
I am sure many bad things will be said in the media and by others. But I hope consideration of her family's feelings are also remembered.
Quote: | Winehouse had been credited as an influence in the rise in popularity of female musicians and soul music, and also for revitalising British music. Winehouse's distinctive style has made her a muse for fashion designers such as Karl Lagerfeld. The singer's problems with drug and alcohol abuse, as well as self-destructive behaviour, were regular tabloid news from 2007 until her death. She and her former husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, were plagued by legal troubles that left him serving prison time. In 2008, Winehouse faced a series of health complications that threatened both her career and her life.[9][10]
Winehouse died on 23 July 2011, at her home in London" |

Very sad. Not much more to say, leaving the blinding obvious out. |
