The early career of Amy Winehouse has been marked by critical acclaim and a strong following for her music but the troubled star has also made headlines for all the wrong reasons. This live concert recording should help fans to forget about the tabloid furor that surrounds Winehouse. The shows includes 17 tracks recorded live in London at the Shepherd's Bush Empire and finds Winehouse in her element as she performs songs such as "Rehab" "You Know I'm No Good" and "Valerie." Also included is a 50-minute long documentary on the singer which charts her sharp rise to fame.Format: DVD AUDIO Genre: MUSIC DVD/LIVE PERFORMANCES UPC: 602517497160 Manufacturer No: B0010249-09

Summary: Enablers, Inc.
Comment: Okay. The concert's not bad, if you don't mind unintelligible English, even when Ms. Winehouse is talking, not singing. If ever a video cried out for subtitles, its this one. The documentary has them, but the concert does not. And, yes, as "Back to Black" proved, Winehouse is a British blue-eyed soul talent in the mold of - if not necessarily the level of - a Dusty Springfield. She has talent and promise. But, she is pathetically out of control in the concert, drunk and drunker throughout the evening, and possibly, stoned as well. I don't want to seem holier-than-thou, but when I see teens singing "No, No, No" to rehab to a person clearly in need of just that - when I see that it was actually her enabling cab driver Dad who inspired that refrain, when I see the music industry types, featured in the doc, who apparently only care about wnat the singer can do for the label.... well, it's off-putting to say the least. So, talent aside, it's just too painful to watch someone self-destruct before one's eyes. If this concert existed in a vacuum, I'd give it 5 stars. But it doesn't. So, a somewhat generous 3 stars for a disquieting disc that will remain in my seldom played collection. I hope Amy Winehouse comes out of this phase, and fulfills her talent in the future.

Summary: amy Winehouse rocks!
Comment: this is an amazing concert- yes, she is trouble, but oh so talented. I saw this concert on Lufthansa in first class on my last month trip and loved it- even at 51 years old, I still like this music genre and I hope she cleans her act up and releases many more great CDs

Summary: Wow
Comment: I fell in love with Amy at the Mandela concert in June 2008. Had only heard she won several Emmys, never seen her, was unaware of a single title. But she blew me away with her sheer presence. I was pretty close to the stage, but I rate her presence up with some all stars - Santana, Jethro Tull, Bowie, Hendrix and JFK - does that really date me!
She is a great singer. Period. The range of music in her live concert is simply fabulous. The band behind her is equally fabulous and that is her musician recommendation. My recommendation is that I have watched her concert every night for the last 4 nights and I have only owned the DVD that long. I haven't seen the DVD to the end. Oh my and she likes Thelonious Monk - so do I.
But I am caught up in the fears surrounding her well being - if there were anything I could do to help her I surely would - she is such a plus to our world. Would love to meet her - she exudes.
