Description

With producer Salaam Remi returning from Frank, plus the welcome addition of Mark Ronson (fresh off successes producing for Christina Aguilera and Robbie Williams), Back to Black has a similar sound to Frank but much more flair and spark to it. Winehouse was inspired by girl group soul of the ’60s, and fortunately Ronson and Remi are two of the most facile and organic R&B producers active.

As before, Winehouse writes all of the songs from her experiences, most of which involve the occasionally riotous and often bittersweet vagaries of love. Also in similar fashion to Frank, her eye for details and her way of relating them are delightful. She states her case against “Rehab” on the knockout first single with some great lines: “They tried to make me go to rehab I won’t go go go, I’d rather be at home with Ray” (Charles, that is).

As often as not, though, the songs on Back to Black are universal, songs that anyone, even Joss Stone, could take to the top of the charts, such as “Love Is a Losing Game” or the title song (“We only said good bye with words, I died a hundred times/You go back to her, and I go back to black”).
