Amoeba Review

11/12/2012

We may tend to grab for crumbs when it comes to our beloved deceased artists, but this collection of excellently recorded sessions at the BBC is a testament to Amy Winehouse’s talent and versatility. Perhaps perfectly timed to the holiday season, the live sessions highlight Winehouse’s talent for rending jazz and blues standards into accessible formats for the young and old alike — tasteful versions of Julie London’s “I Should Care” and standard “Lullaby of Birdland” would make it a good gift for grandma, provided she doesn’t have a problem with Winehouse’s boisterous personality turning up early in versions of “Fuck Me Pumps” and “Rehab.” Her version of the Phil Spector classic “To Know Him is To Love Him” reinvents the original given Winehouse’s expressive, sexy rendition, while its always nice to hear Winehouse’s songs stripped of their production which, as great as it is, doesn’t have room to distract from Winehouse herself on these live cuts. As with many BBC albums, this release gives fans a chance to hear their artist they love recorded live immaculately, and with an artist departed as prematurely as Winehouse, that’s a gift indeed.
