Ronson And Winehouse Reteam For Album

MARK RONSON and AMY WINEHOUSE have reunited to record an upcoming album in honour of music industry legend QUINCY JONES - two years after the pair was originally slated to start the project.

The superproducer was at the mixing deck for Winehouse's 2006 global smash Back to Black and the pop star returned the favour the following year (07) by singing Valerie for Ronson's covers compilation Version.

Ronson was then due to return to the studio early last year (09) with his muse to record a new version of Lesley Gore's You Don't Own Me for the Jones album, but that plan was dropped as Winehouse escaped to the Caribbean for an extended sunshine holiday.

But now the former collaborators have patched up their friendship and working relationship - Winehouse's father Mitch has confirmed the artists are busy working with Jones on the project.

He says, "Over the weekend she did three tracks for Quincy Jones. She's doing great."

" ...to record an upcoming album..." - a whole album!...of covers?

The sparse information trend as to her own album and this Quincy Jones tribute is shared by most, if not all news sources, but at least they all repeat the same quote from Mitch, like also MTV UK, and they should know their business (I say should, I don't say they do):

Wino & Ronson Record Three Songs

So says showbiz dad Mitch...

Amy Winehouse and Mark Ronson have recorded three tracks together.
However the music looks set for a tribute album to legendary producer Quincy Jones, rather than the star’s own solo disc.

Ronson recently revealed that he was in the studio with wayward Wino and that fans could expect something soon.

However it looks unlikely to be something from her own album. Amy’s dad Mitch said: “Over the weekend she did three tracks for Quincy Jones. She's doing great.”

Winehouse’s follow up to Back To Black is long delayed, although she did reportedly record some songs for the record in St Lucia last year.

Meh, whatever it is, I can't wait to hear it. She did a hell of a job with Cupid and Monkey Man, so I'm sure this will be just as good as those, if not better.

Hope it all works out, would be great to hear something - anything - new...

Jordan Rubin and Molly McAleer's quite recent (?) podcast interview with Mark Ronson and Alex Greenwald, which is for the most part silly, but in some parts Ronson talks about his old and recent collaborations with Amy, like for the Quincey Jones album (at 24:35).
