DOHERTY WANTS TO START ALBUM FROM SCRATCH

Rocker PETE DOHERTY is considering scrapping the songs he's already recorded for his forthcoming solo album - because his recent spell in jail has forced him to re-evaluate the musical direction of his new release.
The Babyshambles frontman was released from London's Wormwood Scrubs prison last month (May08) after serving 29 days of his 14-week sentence for probation violation relating to his previous drug and driving offences.
And he admits he is keen to start his album all over again by travelling to Portugal and Paris, France to find inspiration - if only he wasn't barred from doing so by his bail conditions.
He says, "I've re-thought everything about what I'm going to do with the solo record.
"(But) I'm not allowed out of the country until my probation licence is up, which is a little while."
Doherty has been working on the album for the past 12 months and is due to release his solo LP at the end of the year (08).
