Amy Winehouse's dad releases jazz album

Well, lets hope that's all she got from her father or else we'll be reading tabloid stories about drunken antics and stints in rehab about 59 year old Mitch Winehouse.

The album, entitled Rush Of Love will feature 11 Rat Pack-style swing songs by the troubled singer's father. We are all too familiar with tales of woe about performers trying to follow in the foot-steps of their famous parents, but how is it in reverse?

Mr. Winehouse admits that he wouldn't be making the album if he hadn't a famous daughter, but it apparently wasn't even his idea!

"Am I cashing in on it ? 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. But you cannot deny the fact that I would not be bringing out an album if I wasn't Amy's dad."
