Back to Black - Amy Winehouse

Easily the most modern album we have featured on Critical Junctions. Back to Black was realised in 2006 and saw Amy Winehouse catapulted to fame for good and bad. We here on Live Drive are not part of a tabloid institution and will not waste what little time we have on the trivialities of Miss Winehouse's personal life. So on with the music.

Never has a modern artist come so close to re imagining the Motown sound so well as on Back to Black. Produced by Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi the album saw Amy move away from her Jazz side into a more R&B sound. It suited her perfectly. 7 singles were culled from the album including Rehab, Love Is A Losing Game and the jaw dropping Tears Dry On Their Own

She may say No, No, No but we say Yes Yes Yes and its this weeks Critical Junction
