Super producer Mark Ronson has reportedly rejected Amy Winehouse’s bid to repair their working relationship as he is still angry at the ‘Rehab’ star.
The two worked together on Winehouse’s multi-million selling album ‘Back In Black’. Without doubt one of the most successful albums of recent times, it won Winehouse a record number of Grammies and launched Ronson’s reputation into the stratosphere of the pop world.
However recent sessions attempting to record a Bond theme ended disastrously as the producer stormed out of the studio. Since then the two have barely spoke, with a source telling British newspaper the Daily Express that “all Mark needed was Amy’s voice to make their Bond dream come true so when the movie came out Amy called Mark and said, ‘Let’s do something bigger than Bond. It’s a shame we haven’t got our names up there.'”
“Mark was furious – he’s still upset about the loss of Bond. The partnership is badly damaged.”
The Winehouse / Ronson partnership were the bookies favorites to write the theme to the new Bond movie ‘Quantum Of Solace’ – an honor that went to Jack White and Alicia Keys.
Following those disastrous sessions Ronson said at the time: “We did work on it but we never finished. I don’t think it will happen unless by some miracle it gets recorded and someone sings on it. I’m not sure Amy is ready to work on music yet.”
