Amy Winehouse album Back to Black re-enters US charts

Amy Winehouse album Back to Black re-enters US charts

The singer's Back to Black album will re-enter the Billboard album chart at No. 9, with 37,000 albums sold in the United States in the past week.

Those figures come from Nielsen SoundScan data released late Tuesday. Her debut album Frank sold 7,000 copies. All but a fraction of those sales were digital downloads.

Back to Black hadn't sold that many copies in three years. In the Telegraph's review of the album in 2006 Helen Brown wrote:

"Back to Black sees a triumphant Winehouse slamming the door on those laid-back lounge influences and strutting into a gloriously ballsy, bell-ringing bottle-swigging doo-wop territory.

Living with raw conviction through the emotional experience of each song on Back to Black, Winehouse proves herself a true urban diva."
