On her death one of my first thoughts to how she may have died turned to alcohol withdrawal. She tried to quit alcohol far too quickly by going cold turkey.
Not a great idea.
That's a good point. Alcohol withdrawal can be lethal and people need medical treatment to manage the symptoms safely:

Alcohol withdrawal syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The severity of the alcohol withdrawal syndrome can vary from mild symptoms such as mild sleep disturbances and mild anxiety to very severe and life threatening including delirium, particularly visual hallucinations in severe cases and convulsions (which may result in death).

Treatment of alcohol withdrawal syndrome can be managed with various pharmaceutical medications including barbiturates and clonidine. Certain vitamins are also an important part of the management of alcohol withdrawal syndrome.

Because it's a Lockerbie.

R.I.P. Amy Winehouse. Wish she could've had more music to expose people to the talent she had

Her firs album, Frank, was pretty good. I am not sure about her second, never a big enough fan to really dive into her work. However, I will say that a few tracks, especially the hidden tracks Cherry and Mr. Magic, were damn good.

Moving the conversation alone, how good is Back In Black?

Rhetorical question. I know; it's brilliant.

It's one of those critically acclaimed albums that may actually live up to the hype that has preceded it.
Winehouse's vocals and sorrow-drenched style is sublime on the record.
Recently, got the deluxe edition, which includes some interesting more up-beat tracks than one would consider the norm of Amy's work to have been.
Although to me it's clear her best work was the downbeat soulful tracks like Tears Dry on Their Own, You Know I'm No Good and Back in Black which lends its name to the album.
