Craig marks five years since the death of Amy Winehouse by looking back on her music.

Craig Charles marks five years since the death of Amy Winehouse by looking back on her music and the remixes that have been released posthumously.

To mark five years since Amy Winehouse passed away, this week's programme will look back at the iconic singer's music and the remixes that have been posthumously released since her death on 23rd July 2011 at the tragically young age of 27.
Amy was a huge talent in the soul world and sadly only ever had the chance to put out two albums. She was a multi Grammy Award winner and her album Back To Black posthumously became, for a time, the UK's best-selling album of the 21stCentury. Tonight Craig will be looking back at the exclusive sessions Amy recorded for the BBC, including the one she put down for The Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show at Maida Vale. Craig will be sharing his memories of when he met Amy Winehouse along with the interview he recorded with her. Also, Amy's school friend and recording partner, Juliette Ashby, will be Craig's guest. Juliette featured in the film 'Amy' that broke the UK Box Office record for the highest opening weekend of a British documentary.
