The first CD/LP will feature audio-only formats of songs from ‘A Tribute To Amy Winehouse By Jools Holland’, the tribute is Holland’s celebration of all things Amy Winehouse and features performances  of songs including, ‘Stronger Than Me’, ‘Rehab’ and cover of ‘I Heard It Through The Grapevine’ featuring Paul Weller and Jools Holland. The tribute features other performances in which Holland has hand-picked to best celebrate his friend and colleague. Former Squeeze member Jools Holland has become a music institution with his BBC show ‘Later with Jools Holland’ providing authority over musical taste. Throughout her career Winehouse was of course a resident guest on the show, charming the host, other guests and audience members alike with her electrifying charisma and phenomenal talent.

Disc two/LP entitled ‘The BBC Sessions’ will chronicle Winehouse’s best-loved live performances from all eras of her career, ranging from 2004 to 2009. The second disc/LP features some live performances never heard before, including her 2004 performance of ‘Fuck Me Pumps’ at T in the Park and her 2006 performance of ‘To Know Him Is To Love Him’ on veteran BBC DJ Pete Mitchell’s BBC show in 2006. Mitchell, like Winehouse, also had a good relationship with the BBC. The broadcaster presented shows for BBC Radio 2 for 3 years and even produced and presented documentaries for the show. Last March, tragic news broke that Mitchell had died of a heart attack at the age of 61.

The second CD/LP also features many of Winehouse’s performances from new music’s fairy godmother, Jo Whiley, on her famed show, ‘Jo Whiley’s Live Lounge’. Including 2007’s live performance of ‘You Know I’m No Good’ and ‘Tears Dry On Their Own‘ from the same year. The final CD/LP contains Winehouse’s BBC One live sessions from Porchester Hall, an incredible one-off event from 2007. The concert saw 23-year-old Winehouse, straight off her win at the 2007 Brits where she was awarded Best British Female, blew everyone away with her performance. The concert included tracks from the singer’s 2007 final studio album ‘Back to Black’ and ‘Frank’ for which she was nominated for a Mercury Music Prize in 2003.

The track-listing opens with ‘Know You Now’ and contains some of her most popular tracks such as ‘Rehab’, her soul dripping semi- autobiographical single and arguably Winehouse’s most popular track. Also featured is ‘Valerie’, the 2007 cover of Indie band The Zuton’s track of the same name. The final disc/LP closes with Winehouse’s tribute to her love of soul music, ‘Me and Mrs Jones’, inspired by the Billy Paul original.

Winehouse was truly the rawest and most genuine talent in which to come from British music, her career paved the way for singers such as Adele to breakthrough. With her eclectic musical background and influences, the singer’s music was pure magic. And with a voice that could cut through your heart and soul, Winehouse will always remain a vital part of musical history and her fan’s lives.

This new collection will surely be the perfect tribute to a star who will forever shine.
