Lady GaGa and Gary Barlow are among a number of guests who will pay tribute to Amy Winehouse's classic album Back To Black tonight (November 22).
The stars will join Zane Lowe on Radio 1 when he gives the Winehouse LP the 'Masterpiece' treatment, which will hear him play the record in full on radio.
Celebrity fans will explain what Back To Black means to them, while the show will also feature interviews with the people who helped make the record.
Lady GaGa explains: "It's interesting that celebrities sometimes get such a bad wrap for being sad but in truth Amy was incredible at singing the blues – she lived the blues, she lived jazz. I believe she will be remembered as a musical legend."
Meanwhile, Barlow likens Winehouse to Beatles icon John Lennon and Mark Ronson explains the influences behind the album's sound.
Zane Lowe's 'Masterpieces 2011' session with Back To Black will be aired tonight (November 22) from 7pm on Radio 1.
