Amy Winehouse sang like she'd already lived several lives, and most of the time she sounded like she was telling you about all of them. Born in Enfield, London, in 1983 and raised in a household soaked in jazz, she came up through the National Youth Jazz Orchestra, signed to Island and made her debut, Frank, with producer Salaam Remi: smoky, clever, grown-up jazz-pop that won her an Ivor Novello Award for "Stronger Than Me".
Back to Black in 2006 was the big bang. Remi returned, Mark Ronson came aboard along with the Dap-Kings, and the record channelled '60s girl groups and vintage soul through songs so frank and autobiographical they stung. That deep contralto rode "Rehab" to a worldwide hit and another Ivor Novello, while "You Know I'm No Good", "Tears Dry on Their Own", "Love Is A Losing Game" and the title track proved there was no filler hiding behind the single. It sold on a staggering scale, and at the 2008 Grammys she took 5 trophies, among them Best New Artist, Record and Song of the Year for "Rehab" and Best Pop Vocal Album.
The fame came with a tabloid circus, and her struggles with addiction and mental illness kept crowding out the music. She died of alcohol poisoning in 2011, leaving a catalog as slim as it is devastating, and the Library of Congress has since added Back to Black to the National Recording Registry.
