    Amy Winehouse Thrown Off Quincy Jones Tribute Album

    Amy Winehouse has reportedly been dropped from a tribute album to legendary producer Quincy Jones after failing to finish the track.

    Winehouse and producer Mark Ronson were personally invited to contribute to the record by Jones but with the song unfinished nearly a year later it has apparently been removed from the tracklisting.

    Ronson told the Mirror: "The track isn't finished and she's not around. If she's not here then, unfortunately, there's nothing we can do about it."

    A source added: "Basically after Amy's horrendous gig in St Lucia, and then pulling out of the Island 50th Birthday gig, everyone realised she wasn't going to get it together.

    "Quincy Jones is one of the most respected men in the music industry, so it was a huge honour for Amy to be asked to record for him.

    "To snub him is a big no-no. The frustrating thing is what there is of the track sounds really good, but it looks like no-one will ever get to hear it."
