Rolling Stone mourned the loss of Amy Winehouse this week. In addition to memorializing the extraordinarily talented British singer, we surveyed the response of musicians and critics to the news of her death, looked back over her troubled life and published touching tributes from Jared Leto and Ronnie Spector, who also gave us an exclusive stream of her recording of the Winehouse hit "Back to Black."

Rolling Stone also chatted with Kelly Rowland about the success of her single "Motivation," talked to Rage Against the Machine's Tom Morello about his upcoming comic book series Orchid, learned that Dennis DeYoung is open to the possibility of a Styx reunion, interviewed Pete Townshend about his plans to take Quadraphenia on tour again and caught up with Linkin Park's progress on their next album. We also reviewed hot concerts by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Allman Brothers, Young Jeezy, Bon Iver, the stars of The Voice and the Weeknd.

Plus, indie rockers the Elected performed a brief set at our office, enigmatic hip-hop collective Shabazz Palaces were named our latest Band to Watch, we analyzed this week's pop charts, listed off the most exciting new tour kickoffs, looked back on this week in rock history and, as always, we reviewed all the week's biggest new releases.
