Will anybody be buying the 'Amy at the BBC' boxset? I will be!
Been waiting for a collection like this.

I loved Amy's music and prefer listening to her live versions and recordings. Even though she didn't leave a large back catalogue before she passed away because of her Jazz influence and the personal nature of her songs, she rarely sung a song the same way or with the same arrangement - which turned out to be a good thing.

Amy sung some amazing covers over the short space of time she recorded and performed, this doesn't disappoint:

Original recording I think is by Donny Hathaway, enjoy.

I want to get the boxset, but I may wait until after Christmas.

Amy's brother has spoken about her here:

He shares some details about her struggle with an eating disorder. She was really up against it in life.

It's been 4 years today since we lost a real talent in Amy.

I've been listening to her music a lot since watching "Amy" in the cinema, I recommend it to any fans that haven't seen it yet, it's heartbreaking but very interesting and it made me like Amy even more.
