Considered one of the most iconic music festival performances, Amy Winehouse's Glastonbury set made a mark on British fans who attended the show. This year, her entire set will be enshrined as an album.
According to Uproxx, the late singer took the Pyramid Stage during a rainy and muddy performance at the world-renowned festival.
At the time, Winehouse was accompanied by two backup singers/dancers and a full jazz band.
Today, it was announced that her "Live At Glastonbury 2007" would be getting an exclusive vinyl release on June 3. The record, which will mark the 15th anniversary of her show, would include her entire 16-song set.
Yahoo! Entertainment reported that the album would be pressed on 2xLP black vinyl. It will also come in a crystal clear edition.
The album art features Winehouse standing on stage in front of teal theatrical curtains. The singer donned a casual green top paired with black pants.
Her album "Back to Black" had been released less than a year at the time, but it made an impact on future generations, especially her iconic songs "Rehab," "Tears Dry on Their Own," and "You Know I'm Good."
Although she performed in a smaller set at the Jazz World Stage later that day, fans can recall her Pyramid Stage as the most memorable performance.
In a liner note, Glastonbury co-organizer Emily Eavis recalled the time she witnessed the artist on stage, saying she was a concertgoer "through and through."
"She either came and played or, when she wasn't working, came and camped. She played in the blistering heat and the heavy rain, and there were so many magical moments to her performances," Eavis said.
Marking 15 years since Amy took to the stage at Glastonbury, Amy's 2007 set will be released on vinyl for the first time. June 3rd.

The latest release comes two years after Winehouse box sets were released as collector's items.
To honor the singer and her legacy in the music industry, Halcyon Studios will be producing an unauthorized biopic based on Daphne Barak's 2010 "Saving Amy."
The story will reportedly revolve around the last years of her life.
However, despite the good intentions of honoring Winehouse, the singer's father, Mitch, denounced the biopic, saying it's "100 percent not allowed" as the late songstress' estate controls the rights to her likeness.
Amy Winehouse died at the age of 27 on July 23, 2011.
