Download: Back To Black: A Tribute to Miss Amy Winehouse

Music from Lanie Lane, Raphael Saadiq, Frootful, Estelle and more. However, the centre piece of tonights show is our tribute to the late great Miss Amy Winehouse. She was a troubled girl, but there has always been something I have admired about her rugged charm, brash sense of humour and honesty, which comes out with such feeling in her music.

Famed producer, Salaam Remi – who worked with Amy Winehouse on Frank, Back To Black and her unfinished comeback album – had this to say about Amy’s personality when recently talking to New York’s Power 105.1 FM.

“Amy had strong opinions on everything. …. She was very opinionated about what she liked. At the end, she was a real person,” he said. “She had a huge heart. We’d be working for hours and she would have everybody in the room snickering. She always had a joke. You could hear a lot of that in her lyrics, she could be sarcastic and she was extremely witty … but more than anything else she was a real person, an individual artist.”

“To put it all in a nutshell, Amy loved to sing, to write … that ability never left her,” he said. “She was very good at channeling her emotions into lyrics, and then being able to sing them. She was in a place to go forward and make it happen. … The way that Amy and I always created was, she would write and we would toss ideas around.”

Rest In Peace Amy!
