Background

Lioness: Hidden Treasures was announced for release on 31 October 2011 via Winehouse's official website. [5] Island Records co-president Ted Cockle has emphasised that Lioness is not in any way the planned follow-up to Winehouse's album Back to Black (2006). In fact, only two songs intended for the planned follow-up had been completed prior to her death. [6] The album is a compilation of recordings from before the release of Winehouse's debut studio album, Frank , in 2002, up to music she was working on in 2011. [7]

Producers Salaam Remi and Mark Ronson compiled the album with the consent of the Winehouse family. They worked together on listening to thousands of hours of vocals by Winehouse. Remi told NME that the album would not lead to "a Tupac situation", referring to Tupac Shakur, in whose name seven posthumous studio albums have been released since his death in 1996. He stated, "A lot of people, through the other antics that were going on with her personally, didn't get that she was at the top of what she did. Coming to Miami was her escape from all of that, and her writing process could document her life, whether it was recording the pain or the loneliness or the humour. It makes no sense for these songs to be sitting on a hard drive, withering away." [8]

Two tracks from Lioness: Hidden Treasures received world exclusive plays on BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 1Xtra on 3 November 2011. The Chris Moyles Show aired the first play of "Our Day Will Come", while DJ Twin B broadcast the world premiere of "Like Smoke", which features Nas. [9] The album cover was shot by Canadian rock singer-songwriter Bryan Adams in 2007. [10]

Singles

"Body and Soul", Winehouse's final studio recording and a duet with Tony Bennett, was released as a single on 14 September 2011, in commemoration of what would have been Winehouse's 28th birthday. It was released as the first single from Lioness: Hidden Treasures and Tony Bennett's Duets II album. Profits from the release of the single were donated to the Amy Winehouse Foundation. [11] "Our Day Will Come" was released as the second single from the album. The song was added to the BBC Radio 1 playlist on 2 November 2011, entering the C-list. [12] It was also named BBC Radio 2's "Record of the Week" for the week beginning 5 November. [13]

Lioness: Hidden Treasures received generally mixed to positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 65, based on 28 reviews. [14] Q called it "an admirable tribute if frequently deafened by the echo of its tragic catalyst." [21] Jon Pareles of The New York Times commented that the album "ekes out all it can from the archives" and found it to be "just the scraps of what might have been." [25] Andrew Ryce of Pitchfork wrote in his review, "There's little on Lioness: Hidden Treasures that sounds throwaway, or like it should have never been released; but there's equally little that sounds absolutely essential." [20] AllMusic editor John Bush felt that "only the songwriting and prevalence of covers or 'original versions' reveal that this is a posthumous collection", crediting Salaam Remi and Mark Ronson for making the album "strikingly uniform". [15]
