Back to Black is Amy Winehouse's second, and final, album. Tragically she died of alcohol poisoning in 2011 at the age of 27. Before her death she was definitely a rising star in the music world having won a Grammy for this album. I didn't expect to like the album all that much but it was better than I expected. You can hear that there is some 50's music style infused into the songs, making it pretty unique for a current album. Vocally she isn't the best singer I've ever heard but good enough that she could have had a long career if not for her substance abuse issues, which she was obviously aware of since she starts the album out with the song "Rehab" and ends it with "Addicted".BTW there have been a number of musicians that have died at the age of 27 for some reason. They even call it the 27 club https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/27_Club
