I'm not sure how to classify this early Amy Winehouse song, jazz or soul, or a beautiful blend of both. I think she was 19 when she wrote and recorded this demo.

One of the best debut albums ever, and it wasn't re-released on CD. The cover art on all these videos is wrong, BTW. I have two copies of the original.

Anecdote: "Chuck E's" sounds exactly as "Tjockis" in Swedish, which means "Fat F*ck"... at parties we used to sing "Tjockis In Love" loud and clear when playing this song, silly yes, but fun back then... those were the days... :)

Well I'm glad you like them, but we can't get these YT songs in "our country" (USA)

Yep! Rafferty and Stealers Wheel put out some incredible stuff. Flawless production values in Baker Street, including the great Sax.
