Subject: RE: Obit: Amy Winehouse (1983-2011)
I tend to agree with Rob there. I never really dug Amy myself, I found her singing - however skilled - to be somewhat uninteresting and derivative. However, that's purely a personal response. I'm not knocking her, and of course now we'll never know how innovative she could have become if allowed to bloom into full maturity - Jazz after all, of all genres, is the medium for grown-up female artists. It's genuinely sad that she will not able to be rocking the world of Jazz fans well into her Sixties, as she should.
