Collective soul
LIONESS: HIDDEN TREASURES
Amy Winehouse
In her third album (albeit posthumous), the late great Amy Winehouse sings 12 tracks — a
combination of unreleased songs, alternative versions of classics, and a couple of her own
compositions. She duets with Tony Bennett on
Body & Soul,
her final studio recording, and
puts a unique spin on tunes like
Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow, Girl From Ipanema
(featuring
Nas) and the reggae-fied 60s hit,
Our Day Will Come.
As a testament to her brilliance, the
final track,
A Song For You
— her version of the Leon Russell melody popularized by Donny
Hathaway — was done in just one take.
