Lioness: Hidden Treasures

Description

" It was a pleasure to record with Amy Winehouse and when you listen to Body And Soul, it is a testament to her artistic genius and her intelligence as one of the most honest musicians I have ever known." Tony Bennett Following her tragic death in July, some of the closest producers and musicians who worked with Amy Winehouse, including Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi, spent time listening to the many recordings Amy had made before, during, and after the release of "Frank" and "Back To Black." It has been said by all those who worked with Amy that she never sang or played a song the same way twice. Salaam and Mark quickly realized that they had a collection of songs that deserved to be heard, a collection of songs that were a faithful testament to Amy as an artist but also and above all, Amy their friend. "Lioness: Hidden Treasures": the third album by Amy Winehouse, undoubtedly one of the most talented, original, and beloved artists to emerge from the popular music world in decades, will be released on December 5. The collection of 12 tracks includes unreleased songs, alternative versions of existing classics as well as two new compositions by Amy, and was compiled by her long-time musical partners Salaam Remi and Mark Ronson in collaboration with Amy's family, her management, and the record label Island Records. "Lioness: Hidden Treasures" is a true tribute to the artist, the talent, and the woman, and reminds us of Amy's extraordinary power as a songwriter, singer, and performer of classics. PLAN M
