Mark Ronson who produced five tracks on Amy's latest "Back To Black" album (the five best tracks in my opinion) has released a new record of his own featuring a variety of my favorite Brit-pop lung launchers including Amy Winehouse, Lily Allen and Robbie Williams among others. Winehouse is featured on the Ronson reworking of "Valerie" an obscure recording by The Zutons, punched up by Ronson in classic Motown style. It's a brilliant track that caught my ear first listen reminding me of "The Supremes". If you love Amy you will flip over this track. Amy Winehouse also performs an intimate "live" version of the song that melts in your mouth, not in your hands. The new Mark Ronson album entitled "Version" is available in it's entirety at Amazon including the Import release.
