Winehouse’s dad to unveil debut album

From ANI

London, May 27: British singer Amy Winehouse's father Mitch is set to release his debut album.

Mitch said that Amy encouraged him to record at the studio.

"Amy and I spoke about me doing an album six or seven years ago. The timing wasn't right since Amy wasn't well. Now she's better and the time is right," he added.

The album named Rush Of Love will be released in June, reports The BBC.

"Am I cashing in on it being Amy's dad? I suppose in a way, if the album sells, I will be. But that's not why I'm doing it. I'm doing it because Amy and I spoke about doing an album years ago," he said.

"But you cannot deny the fact that I would not be bringing out an album if I wasn't Amy's dad. It's true," Mitch added.

The album has 11 Rat Pack-style swing songs. It includes four new tracks written by Tony Hiller, best known for writing 'Save Your Kisses for Me', and 'United We Stand.'
