DVD Reviews of I Told You I Was Trouble: Amy Winehouse Live From London

DVD Review: Okay ...she's a mess but this is an outstanding presentation!
Summary: 5 Stars

lets ignore the fact that she is a mess of a human being....when it comes to art and music she is amazing! This is a hi-def version of the DVD already out in the US...and it of course looks better in hi-def but the big reason I ordered this UK import (which plays fine on my Sony player) is the bonus concert NOT included on the domestic DVD and it is worth it to me to pay a bit of a premium for the bonus content as well as the sonic and picture upgrade. recommended

DVD Review: SAD
Summary: 2 Stars

I love Amy Winehouse's music. However, in this particular show, she was totally out of this planet. I don't know if she was completely drunk or drugged or both, but she can't pronounce any word properly, let alone sing. She MUMBLES the whole show, and even for a native it's really hard to make out any word she is saying. SAD.

DVD Review: Great song writer
Summary: 5 Stars

This is another great gift for anyone who loves great singers and songwriters. Very original and fresh.

DVD Review: She's good!
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm seventy years old, and been to a few jazz concerts. Met Duke Ellington, never saw Billie Holiday, but have the recordings, and Amy Winehouse is as good, maybe better, since she writes most of what she sings, and most of it is jazz, but don't tell the young folks. Vocalization good, timing good, phrasing good, some slurs, which may be good or bad depending upon what caused them. Hopefully not what brought Billie down. Get her act while you can.

DVD Review: I just wish I understood what she was singing...
Summary: 4 Stars

There is no doubt about her quality as a singer but live...it is quite difficult to understand anything that she says...It is a beautiful tribute to jazz and I can't stop seeing it.

Description of I Told You I Was Trouble: Amy Winehouse Live From London

Already hailed as one of the decade's top live performers, Amy gives us fair warning with the devilishly titled I Told You I Was Trouble. The DVD features as its centerpiece a rollicking and emotive 60 minute concert performance filmed live from London's 104 year old Sheperd's Bush Empire. For Amy Winehouse fans, I Told You I Was Trouble also serves up a potpourri of bonus material including a 50 minute film chronicling her incredible rise as one of music's most colorful and acclaimed new voices; never-before-seen early performances; an interview with her father, and other rare, behind the scenes glimpses of the British siren. Showcasing her hit songs from her UK debut release Frank and the international platinum-plus release Back To Black (recently passing the 3 million sales milestone worldwide), the concert from Sheperd's Bush features "You Know I'm No Good," "Tears Dry On Their Own", Amy's cover of the Zuton's "Valerie", and her Billboard topping hit "Rehab," among others.
Amy Winehouse scored a UK hit with 2003's Frank, but her follow-up is another story. Released in 2007, Back to Black blew up worldwide. So, the bouffant belter took her soulful show on the road. It turned out to be a short trip; after only a few dates, she canceled her North American tour due to "severe exhaustion." Fortunately, I Told You I Was Trouble captures the petite powerhouse before personal problems sidelined her for the rest of the year. Recorded live at London's Shepherd's Bush, Winehouse and nine-piece ensemble, including two smooth-moving back-up singers, blast through 13 originals and four covers, including the Zutons' "Valerie" and the Specials' "Hey Little Rich Girl." Vivacious voice aside, Winehouse looks uncomfortable at times, alternately awkward and endearing. Yes, she drinks, but insecurity appears to be as much to blame as (possible) inebriation, though she does loosen up after awhile. And there's some good stuff here, especially the Ronettes-inspired "Back to Black" and "Rehab." As her albums attest, Winehouse is one of the decade's most electrifying artists, but the stage may not be the best showcase for her abilities--not yet, at any rate. While I Told You I Was Trouble isn't the triumph it could've been, it isn't a train wreck either. The informative 50-minute documentary features interviews with Winehouse, her proud papa, and the A&R representative who signed her to Island Records. One of the lady's more interesting revelations: "The more insecure I get, the bigger my hair has to be." --Kathleen C. Fennessy
