Unheard early recordings by Amy Winehouse could be set for release AMY Winehouse’s father has suggested that unheard music recorded by the singer early in her career may still be released. Yesterday marked 10 years since Winehouse died of alcohol poisoning at her home in Camden, north London, at the age of 27. Two posthumous collections of her music have been released – 2011’s Lioness: Hidden Treasures, and Amy from 2015. Mitch Winehouse told the BBC he wants her early recordings to be released, despite them not standing up to her acclaimed second and final studio album, Back To Black. He said: “We found a few bits and pieces but it is difficult because the CDs are a bit corrupted. But apparently we have been told that we might be able to rescue something.
Normality is still far away for our musicians who remain in limbo

COMMENT
As major supermarkets announce an an end to CD sales, Pat Kane looks back at his loathing of the format and whether he was too swift in embracing digital PING! I remember the day I fell out of love with the compact disc. The recording would have been a beloved vinyl classic, revived anew to me in this format (mostly likely Stevie Wonder or John Coltrane or The Blue Nile). Going from gatefold sleeve to beermat-sized was bathetic. But for the sake of playing it on my CD walkman, which was beatifying my dull pedestrian life, I could bear the reduction. The original LP cover was on a wee booklet of lyrics and notes, miniaturised behind the plastic screen.
