Back to Black at 20: Ronson, Remi and Eleven Guest Voices Bring Amy Winehouse’s Masterpiece Back to the Roundhouse

Amy Winehouse’s Back to Black was performed in full at London’s Roundhouse on Wednesday night, at a one-night-only concert marking twenty years since the album’s release. The show was led by the album’s original producers, Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi, reunited with the Amy Winehouse Band, according to Universal Music, which reported the evening in a release issued through UMR on October 23.

Ronson and Remi were joined in leading the production by Winehouse’s long-term musical director Dale Davis, the producers Paul O’Duffy and p*nut, and Darcus Beese OBE, Universal Music reported. The Amy Winehouse Band played the album’s eleven songs, with a different guest vocalist taking each track.

Corinne Bailey Rae sang the title track, and Lianne La Havas took “You Know I’m No Good,” uDiscover Music reported. Jorja Smith performed “Some Unholy War,” Jessie Reyez performed “Rehab,” and Yebba performed “Love Is a Losing Game.” The group FLO performed “He Can Only Hold Her.” The remaining songs went to Baby Rose, who sang “Wake Up Alone”; Sasha Keable, who sang “Just Friends”; Skye Newman, who sang “Addicted”; Terri Walker, who sang “Me & Mr Jones”; and Nia Smith, who sang “Tears Dry On Their Own,” according to the label’s rundown published by uDiscover.

All eleven vocalists returned to the stage together to close the night with “Valerie,” the Zutons song that Winehouse made her own on record, Universal Music reported.

Before “Love Is a Losing Game,” which he performed with Yebba, Ronson told the crowd that the song’s chords had been so complicated when Winehouse first played it to him that he had asked her to play it herself. “Amy’s musicality, she was like a monster, and I definitely want everybody to know that,” he said, in Parade’s account of the evening, published on October 24. In a statement released by Universal Music, Ronson said: “It’s crazy that six songs made in a fit of furious musical infatuation would matter so deeply to so many people twenty years later.” Remi said: “Amy was one of one. One-of-a-kind artist. One-of-a-kind spirit. One-of-a-kind soul.”

The Roundhouse, in Winehouse’s home neighbourhood of Camden, was the last venue at which she performed before her death in July 2011, at the age of 27, That Grape Juice reported in its coverage of the concert. Tickets for the one-night-only show had sold out within minutes of going on sale, The Sun reported.

Back to Black, Winehouse’s second album, was released on October 27, 2006, which makes Tuesday, October 27, the twentieth anniversary of its release, Universal Music said. The label said the album reached No. 1 in the UK, became the best-selling album of 2007 there and has sold more than 25 million copies worldwide. The album won five Grammy Awards, and Ronson received the Grammy for Producer of the Year for his work on it, Parade reported.

The performances were posted to the BBC’s YouTube channel on Saturday, October 24, and the filmed concert was broadcast on BBC Two the same evening, at 9.35pm, Contactmusic reported. BBC Radio 2 and BBC Sounds are to air the concert on Monday, October 26, within Jo Whiley’s show, Universal Music and uDiscover reported.

Expanded anniversary editions of the album were released on Friday, October 23, including a three-LP clear vinyl set and a three-CD set carrying unreleased demos, rare B-sides, a live set recorded at Paradiso in Amsterdam, previously unseen photographs, and new liner notes by Ronson and Remi, Contactmusic reported.
