Day 2207 - Amy Winehouse "Back To Black" - 06.06.17

Amy Winehouse's "Back To Black" is a masterpiece record.  I have loved it since I first heard it back in the day.  I have had this on my list of vinyl records to pick up for at least that last six months when I started seeing it in stores.  This is a record that has such a retro feel to it that is seems perfect for the vinyl format.  The funny thing is that I doubt it was recorded in analog.  Be that as it may, it just seems like it is the type of music that should be spun on a turntable. 
I gave it a listen this weekend.  It is strange how since I watched the "Amy" documentary last year, I have a whole new feeling when I listen to "Rehab".  The song now is tragic to me.  The line about my her father saying she doesn't have to go, which at one time seemed rebellious or defiant, not seems sad and tragic knowing the full backstory.  The poor girl was surrounded my horrible men who exploited her and the fact that even her father was essentially a monster who cared not that his daughter needed help, but cared only about how he could make money off her.  I'll never listen to the song in the same way again. This is something I saw today.
