OKP News: 2 New Amy Winehouse LPs In The Works

In a conversation with the UK press (BBC 6 Music, to be exact) Amy Winehouse's father Mitch Winehouse revealed that there is enough material for at least one more posthumous LP to follow up this past year's Lioness: Hidden Treasures , if not two--although he was quick to add that he did not want to disappoint Amy's fans by putting out filler:

"I'm not sure that there is much more but I'm sure that we will get at least one other album out, if not two. There are loads of covers, loads of them, but the problem is we don't want want to rip anybody off. When her fans are so precious to us we don’t want to put out dross."

The announcement comes just about two week shy of the 1st anniversary of Amy's passing and shortly after the revered torch-singer's name trended globally on twitter several times over the July 4th holiday, a result of the leak of the song "Cherry Wine," a posthumous duet with Nas featured on his LP Life Is Good (although Terry Urban might have helped a little, too).
