Amy Winehouse Live on the BBC

Terry Lane — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 16:19:03 +0000

Family and friends including Mark Ronson and Kelly Osborne attended the funeral of Amy Winehouse at Edgwarebury Cemetery in north London today.

Amy Winehouse was just 27-years-old when she was found dead at her home in Camden, north London, last Saturday. The cause of death will not be known for up to four weeks as police await toxicology tests, following a post-mortem examination carried out yesterday proved inconclusive.

Anyone who has seen videos of her last concert in Serbia last month has witnessed what a state Amy was in. A stumbling performance that looks to be caused by a cocktail of alcohol and drugs.

Here is Amy Winehouse at her finest performing a live rendition of ‘Rehab’ on Jools Holland’s Later BBCtv show and singing ‘Valerie’ with Mark Ronson for the BBC Live Sessions concert.

Here is one of the best live versions of the Sam Cooke classic Change Is Gonna Come, performed by the incredible UK R&B artist Beverley Knight backed by the Jools Holland Rhythm & Blues Orchestra.

Slight Return was a great pop song released back in 1996 by London’s answer to the Madchester bands, The Bluetones. Looking fresh out of school and yet able to afford and play a Rickenbacker!
