NEW YORK—Death has landed Amy Winehouse back on the charts.

The British singer’s “Back to Black” album will re-enter the Billboard album chart at No. 9, with 37,000 albums sold in the United States in the past week. Those figures come from Nielsen SoundScan data released late Tuesday. Her debut album “Frank” sold 7,000 copies. All but a fraction of those sales were digital downloads.
