Amy Winehouse Posthumous Album: Out this December
Her untimely death left fans shocked, but Amy Winehouse will live on in a forthcoming collection of previously-unheard recordings.
Lioness: Hidden Treasures is schedule for release on December 5th and will be comprised of 12 songs that were assembled by Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi.
A record company statement said, "It was said by all who worked with Amy that she never sang or played a song the same way twice. It quickly became apparent to Salaam and Mark that they had a collection of songs that deserved to be heard, a collection of songs that were a fitting testament to Amy the artist and, as importantly, Amy their friend."
Amy’s dad Mitch Winehouse told press, "I spent so much time chasing after Amy, telling her off, that I never realized what a true genius she was. It wasn't until I sat down with the rest of the family and listened to this album that I fully appreciated the breadth of Amy's talent, from jazz standards to hip-hop songs, it really took my breath away."
The track listing on Lioness: HIdden Treasures includes “Halftime,” “The Girl from Ipanema,” and “Like Smoke” featuring Nas. Proceeds from the sales will benefit the Amy Winehouse Foundation.
