It’s still hard to wrap our heads around the fact that Amy is gone. An unspeakably sublime singer who left this world way too young, Winehouse sparked a whole new era of throwback soul, even as she stood alone with her starkly personal songs and unwaveringly defiant spirit. For those who prefer their Winehouse served on a turntable, the new collection "12x7" is something you’re just going to have to have. It brings you every single from Amy’s albums "Frank" and "Back to Black" and from her posthumously released compilation "Lioness: Hidden Treasures." Individual picture sleeves house the 12 7" vinyl singles, which come with a set of art cards and a 20-page lyric booklet. Inside the deluxe box you’ll find Amy’s luminous performances of "Stronger Than Me," "What It Is," "Take the Box," "Round Midnight," "In My Bed," "You Sent Me Flying," "Pumps," the MJ Cole remix of "Pumps," "Rehab," "Do Me Good," "You Know I’m No Good," "Monkey Man," "Back to Black," "Valerie" (Jo Whiley Live Lounge), "Tears Dry on Their Own," "You’re Wondering Now," "Love Is a Losing Game" (original plus Kardinal Beats remix), "Body and Soul" (with Tony Bennett), "A Song for You," "Our Day Will Come," "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" and "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus." To get all three aforementioned albums in their entirety, go for the 5-CD set here, which also includes a disc of 15 remixes (one by Hot Chip, one featuring Jay-Z…killer stuff here) and Amy’s 2007 show at Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London ("Rehab," "You Know I’m No Good" and many more of the songs above plus "Me & Mr. Jones," "Some Unholy War," "Just Friends," "Cherry," "Wake Up Alone" and more). Those last two discs make their CD debuts here; both sets are stunners, befitting such a rare and towering talent as Amy Winehouse. Republic.
