AMY WINEHOUSE - WINEHOUSE AND DOHERTY COLLABORATE

Amy Winehouse and Pete Doherty have collaborated on a new track, it has been revealed.

Though the former Libertine has not confirmed the Back to Black star's role on the new song, his guitarist Mik Whitnall has revealed that the band recorded with Winehouse in Wiltshire last week.

Whitnall told NME.com that the band had been blown away by Winehouse's talent, commenting (confusingly): "She plays better than James Brown playing acoustic guitar. She thinks she's sh*t, but she's not."

He added: "I've never met a girl who plays like that, let alone a man."

Doherty discussed the potential duet in an in an XFM interview to be aired at 22:00 BST tonight.

After six weeks in rehab and a well-publicised reconciliation with his father, the Babyshambles frontman told DJ John Kennedy: "To be honest it's just good to be at liberty again, well, fingers crossed."

In an interview to be aired at 22:00 BST tonight, Doherty revealed that a track entitled 1939 Returning was one of the new songs Babyshambles were working on.

"I'm going to try and get Miss Winehouse to help me with it hopefully", he explained, before Amy's husband Blake Fielder-Civil, sitting on the interview, interrupted with a "Mrs!"

Winehouse had a wobbly return to live performing this week, with a comeback show in Berlin, while Doherty has been staying in the sleepy Wiltshire town of Marlborough, after leaving the Clouds rehab clinic.
