Subject: RE: Obit: Amy Winehouse (1983-2011)
Amy's was, I believe, the last CD I ever bought (2006-ish?). And before that, I hadn't bought a CD in a long time, much less a 'pop' (you know what I mean) CD.

Point is, I liked the music enough to go to a record store and buy a CD -- which is rare in this day, for someone like me.

I even departed from my regularly scheduled programme of 'rousing' shanties to perform one of her songs on my Youtube channel.

(No self-promotion here; far from it -- the singing is poor, and the guitar-playing worse. But a lot of 'folk' music people here will know that if you like a song, you just sing it! And hers were good songs.)
