Back To Black
by Amy Winehouse
Difficult to rate this objectively: 1. The vinyl pressing of this is very noticeably compressed 2. The songs are so familiar that it both gives them a sense of comfort but also not particularly intriguing. Trying to get past both of these facts, it’s easy to see why this was such a monster hit at the time, and why it has aged so well. Some truly great songs on this. Sometimes the production feels a shade pastiche, but not enough to deter from how good the song is.
