Amy Winehouse

For a talent like Amy Winehouse, it's safe to say that a regular old "best-of" compilation doesn't feel like a proper encapsulation of a brilliant career that was cut tragically short in 2011. With a voice that contained so much passion, pain, and soul, the best way to experience her work is to just sit back and take it all in. Featuring her 2003 debut, Frank, as well as her R&B-charged 2006 follow-up Back to Black and the 2011 B-sides compilation Lioness: Hidden Treasures, The Album Collection provides the opportunity to do just that, packaging the singer's studio work into a neat little box set that gives you everything you need to take a journey through her discography.

Much can be said about the late Amy Winehouse, one of the U.K.'s flagship vocalists during the 2000s. The British press and tabloids seemed to focus on her rowdy behavior, heavy consumption of alcohol, and tragic end, but fans and critics alike embraced her rugged charm, brash sense of humor, and distinctively soulful and jazzy vocals. Her platinum-selling breakthrough album, Frank (2003), elicited comparisons ranging from Billie Holiday and Sarah Vaughan to Macy Gray and Lauryn Hill. Interestingly enough, despite her strong accent and vernacular, one can often hear aspects of each of those singers' vocal repertoires in Winehouse's own voice. Nonetheless, her allure had always been her songwriting – almost always deeply personal but best known for its profanity and brutal candor.

In this documentary, you will find out who Amy Winehouse truly is and was, and why she is still searching for herself. In 2003, Amy Winehouse debuted her first album, 'Frank.' When she first burst onto the scene, she was considered to be as … Full Descriptionsoulful as the sultry sisters of yesteryear, such as Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughn and Dina Washington. In 2008, that is no longer the case. Besides her controversial Grammy wins, she has been shunned by the industry, critics and artists by the likes of Natalie Cole and many others. This situation has arisen because of the young singer's public display of hard alcohol and drug use. Amy Winehouse is a good girl gone train wreck with the help of husband Blake Fielder-Civil, whom with no doubt helped create this monster. Amy Winehouse: this is a true cracked case scenario.

If you think Back to Black is brilliant, wait until you hear Frank! Soul and Jazz stylings meet together here and the end result is magnificent.
