Notes

'Back to Black' is the second studio album by English recording artist Amy Winehouse, recorded 2005–2006 and released October 4, 2006 on Island Records.

It incorporates 1960s soul music styles and modern R&B production, with subjective lyrics that concern relationships and reflect on Winehouse's experiences with drinking, sex, and drugs. The album produced several singles, including 'Rehab', 'You Know I'm No Good', 'Back to Black', 'Tears Dry on Their Own', and 'Love Is a Losing Game'.

'Back to Black' received positive reviews from most music critics, earning praise for its classicist soul influences, Salaam Remi and Mark Ronson's production, and Winehouse's songwriting and emotive singing style. At the 50th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony, 'Back to Black' won five awards, tying the record (with Lauryn Hill, Alicia Keys, Beyoncé Knowles, Norah Jones, and Alison Krauss) for the second-most awards won by a female artist in a single ceremony. The album won Best Pop Vocal Album, while 'Rehab' won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, Song of the Year and Record of the Year with Amy Winehouse winning Best New Artist. The album was also nominated for Album of the Year. To date, 'Back to Black' has sold over 10 million copies worldwide.

My best friend bought this for me from target a few years ago and I was expecting a complete neon pink vinyl but instead it came out as the Pink Tye Dye version and it’s so gorgeous. It would constantly skip on Love Is A Losing Game until I recently gave it a wet wash with my Record Friend. It’s not the best device to use for cleaning but it got the job done.

My copy has really bad sibilance. Nearly unlistenable, on every track. I heard it is a bad pressing and I should get the UK one.

The media is fine - flat, no noise. The sound quality however is really bad - flat and boomy at the same time. Like it was said in another review for earlier copy of the same release - it sounds like someone was messing with the gain knob. This plus dusty paper inner sleeve = not worth the price. Really disappointing to hear such a poor sound engineering for great music.

After buying the "Frank" Abbey Road version, I rushed and bought this one. Where "Frank" sounded very vibrant, with good separation of all the instruments, this album sounded much more compressed. I think that it's just the way the original masters were recorded. That being said, this album still sounds very good, with very little surface noise. Amy's voice still cuts through and it's a very enjoyable listen. It's a very clean sounding album and the songs speak for themselves. I would def recommend buying this version, despite a few minor critiques.

Maybe Frank just stands out now as it has a more jazz feel and the guitars and other instruments cut through more so. Back to Black is a little more bluesy and more bass prominent which maybe killed a little of the dynamics. Idk

The only press of this album worth owning. Skip the others, they sound like trash - it’s well worth the extra $ for this version.

How does everyone not realize this pressing sounds like a dumpster fire? It’s hands down the worst press in my collection and I knew that about 20 seconds into the first track…it sounds like you’re listening through a tin can against the wall - absolutely ZERO depth. I literally only keep it as a fun illustration of how different two pressings of the same recording can be (the Abbey Road half-speed is excellent). 4-stars means y’all got no ears!

One of those noisy, distorted, rather ugly jobs from GZ Media.

Pressing is mostly bass with little attention to anything else. Very disappointing. Even the vocals suffer.

Wow wow wow! This sounds absolutely amazing! I was nervous because many of the other pressings don't have very good reviews. This one has some pretty mixed reviews so when I saw it I decided to pick it up and wow, I'm so happy I did. It sounds so crisp, clear and dynamic, the best I've heard the album. There was no surface noise that I could hear and I love the big thick gatefold. Highly recommend this one.
