Frank Image
  • Summary: Amy Winehouse's debut album is finally out in the US four years after it was first released in the UK.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 9 out of 11
  2. Negative: 0 out of 11
  1. Frank is a superb debut album that announces Amy Winehouse as a major young talent. With hardly any weak tracks on here, it's frightening to think what she could produce in the years to come.
  2. Her first album--a UK smash in '03, now being issued here-- bristles with fiercer intelligence, though it lacks the classic soul-warmth of the Mark Ronson-produced Black. [16 Nov 2007, p.79]
  3. Hearing 2003's Frank the first time around, I can't say I was knocked out by Amy Winehouse's supper club jazz singing, and the album hasn't improved with age.

    This is a fantastic album, exposing the contemporary music industry for the fake that it is. Ms. Winehouse is one of the few true artists in the world today, complete with human frailty and beauty. Ms. Winehouse's jazz-advent album proves that with enough talent and creativity, music can be fun again. For those stuck on her battle with drug addiction, take a look at some of your favorite artists, starting with classical. . . Expand

    Amy has a nice voice, but her songs don't do anything for me. I can't recommend this album to anyone.
