Amy Winehouse Dead at 27

Shouldn't have said no to rehab...
 
I saw an AP report yesterday that said at one time she was diagnosed as manic-depressive but refused to take the prescriptions that coincided with the diagnosis. I wonder if she'd followed through, if that would have helped her at all...or she may have felt like those meds would have messed her music groove up? Who knows now, I guess....
 
I never even heard of Winehouse as a singer. I only heard of Winehouse on the cover of Rupert Murdoch's tabloids, Harvey Levin's TMZ front page with headlines "In Rehab" whenever Harvey Levin does not feel like going after Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Spears and Mel Gibson. and Murdoch puts her there when ever he does not want to talk about his political agenda.

Greatness on superbly produced studio recordings.....

But bringing her act live to the public, well that was a mixed blessing......

I've never had much respect for artists that can't deliver consistently live, and deliver only/mostly in the studio. But even then, greatness engineered on record... will and should hold up, decades later, without the benefit of a touring act to support it.

I think most of us would be hard-pressed to name even one song that Winehouse sang. I'm reminded of the time when Al Gore supposedly met Courtney Love, claimed to be a fan of hers, but when challenged by her, couldn't even name a single song of hers!

I suggest this thread be deleted. Has nothing to do with Dallas Radio.
I'd move it to Off the Air, but there is already a thread about her there. Rest assured that this thread will be like Winehouse's life, in other words, relatively short-lived.

She was booed off the stage at her last public appearance.
 
Amy Winehouse and Dallas/Ft. Worth Radio DO have something in common... They are both dead.
