Her two studio albums – 2003’s Frank and 2006’s Back To Black – both saw a noticeable jump following her death

Amy Winehouse is still proving to be one of the most popular British recording artists of modern time, with fans buying more than 1.7 million copies of her recordings in the year since her death.

The singer was found dead from alcohol poisoning in her north London home on July 23 last year at the age of 27.

But her voice has continued to be heard, with 1.2 million copies of her three albums being sold in Britain along with 500,000 of her singles in the past year, according to the Official Charts Company.

Her two studio albums – 2003’s Frank and 2006’s Back To Black – both saw a noticeable jump following her death, with her debut, Frank, peaking at number three in the charts in August last year.

Back To Black rocketed back to the top of the Official Albums Chart a week after she died, on July 31, having previously held the number one spot for three non-consecutive weeks in early 2007.
