    Tessa needs to realise how pop stars, their egos, and their media profiles function. It's Winehouse's tabloid coverage that enables her to maintain her popularity. In that sense her drug 'problem' is the very thing she's clinging to. I also don't like the idea that it's a 'problem' when Winehouse has more support and resources available to her Tessa needs to realise how pop stars, their egos, and their media profiles function. It's Winehouse's tabloid coverage that enables her to maintain her popularity. In that sense her drug 'problem' is the very thing she's clinging to.

    Winehouse's record has the feeling of being allowed to grow on its own--without being meddled with and fussed over.

    Frank is an honest, refreshingly personal record which, though very occasionally strays into easy jazz, has Gucci bags of personality.

    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]
