Product Description: With her debut album Frank, Amy Winehouse proves to be one of the most original, honest, and brave singer/songwriters to emerge in recent years. Over the course of the 13 songs, she manages to do everything required of a classic album. This is a stark piece of work, comprising husky, frequently sexually charged vocals, painfully honest lyrics and soft trumpets, laidback beats, and sparse guitar work. It seems that soulful jazz doesn't always have to be bland--it can also be playful, twisted, and arrogant ("Amy Amy Amy"). "F*** Me Pumps" charts a seemingly guilt-free act of infidelity: "What do you expect when you leave me here alone?" she asks coyly, as if by way of justifiable explanation. "You wouldn't want me to be lonely," she adds. You can't help warming to her, despite what she's saying. A unique sense of humour (how rare in music now) and a no-bull attitude make for an interesting, compelling debut. Frank? Yes, but refreshingly so. You wouldn't want her for a girlfriend, but as a life companion she may yet prove indispensable. --Cortman Virtue


Customer Reviews


5 stars awesome cd
This is my first experience listening to Amy Winehouse, I can't get over what a terrific voice she has. Elements of Ella, Sarah Vaughan. Amy has been training her voice since she was 8 yrs old and in special music schools and it shows.


3 stars Amy's roots
This is good album of Amy's early work to see the progress she made, but is pales in comparison to Back to Black, which is her masterpiece.


4 stars better than back to black
i had heard songs from this album on a music site and enjoyed the couple of songs i heard. when i went to buy it, couldn't find it anywhere, so i ordered it online and enjoyed it ever since. favorite song F me pumps.


4 stars Better than Back to Black
First heard Amy Winehouse soon after Back to Black was released, and before all of the publicized issues. I was blown away by this vocal talent. It is too bad that once again the business, or the fame, or the boy friend has polluted this amazing artist.
Then I heard Frank. Much better vocally than BTB. Pure and uninfected. I just hope for her that she can get through her problems and continue to entertain us for years to come.


5 stars A rose for Amy
Excellent choice of songs to play when you're laying back in the "days" either reminiscing about a dude you once loved and wanted to love again... or a dude you once loved and never wanted to love ever again. With a sultry and raspy voice, you feel every lyric Winehouse pours out! Although both this album and the one after are great...I believe this cd is by far the best!! Excellent!!!
