Pros

Great vocals, Old school R&B sound, Refreshing new voice

NOV

2007

By far this cd is the best release of 07 for me. I was already familiar with Amy but when she came out with her follow-up Back To Black(NOTE: It is her first stateside release....her very first cd it titled Frank)I was completely blown away by how she totally changed directions saluting the old school time honored r&b of the 60's. If I had one complaint it would be that the cd is to short.....beyond that each of these lush, tight tunes give a full gritty, raw performance keeping you hooked from start to finish. The standout track for me has to be Wake Up Alone......with it's distant backing vocals coating the outside of Amy's full voice this song will remind you of s time when a song touched you heart and soul!

She has just released a live dvd and it is a must have. With her witty charm and sassy ways she was just as you discribed:AWESOME!

I totally agree... I saw Amy at this years Lollapalooza in Chicago and she was just awesome. Sounded exactly like her albums! :)
