To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Amy Winehouse’s Back to Black, Republic/UMe will be reissuing the album in various formats which will include unreleased demos, rare B-sides, as well as a live performance from Paradiso, Amsterdam (February 8, 2007) from the Back To Black tour. The formats will also include never-before-seen photos by original album photographers Mischa Richter and Alex Lake, plus new liner notes from producers and friends Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi.
It will be released on October 23, just days before the 20th anniversary of the album’s original release date of October 27, 2006.
In the UK, the album debuted at No. 3 and later reached No. 1 on the Official Albums Chart before going on to be the best-selling album of 2007. The album, which has now sold over 4.5 million copies the UK, debuted at No. 7 on the Billboard 200, eventually peaking at No. 2 following Amy's five-Grammy haul. That night, she won Record of The Year, Song of the Year, Best Pop Vocal Album, Best New Artist and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance with “Rehab.”
Now 20 years on and a U.S. double-Platinum RIAA certification later, Back to Black has since topped charts across Europe—including Austria, Belgium, Germany and Switzerland — and has sold well over 25 million copies worldwide.
For the 20th anniversary, a special 3LP clear-vinyl edition and accompanying 3CD edition features four unreleased demos, plus rare B-sides alongside the deluxe tracks. The third disc features the live performance from Paradiso, Amsterdam, on February 8, 2007, from the Back To Black tour, never released in full on vinyl or streaming before.
These editions feature new alternative cover artwork, an image from Mark Ronson’s archives of Amy’s handwritten lyrics, and never-before-seen photos by original album photographers Mischa Richter and Alex Lake, plus exclusive liner notes from Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi.
To complete the anniversary suite of formats, limited edition 1LP variations of the original album include a 1LP “Chalkboard Marble” color vinyl, plus a webstore-exclusive 1LP Zoetrope vinyl featuring moving footage of Amy.
