Winehouse goes to rehab to collaborate with Babyshambles

British singer Amy Winehouse travelled to Pete Doherty's rehab clinic to prepare for their latest track.

The Rehab hitmaker, 24, has teamed up with the Babyshambles to record a "ska-type" single close to Doherty's clinic in Wiltshire, England.

Winehouse will play the guitar for the collaboration - and her efforts have impressed Babyshambles' guitarist Mik Whitnall.

He says: "She plays better than James Brown playing acoustic guitar.

"She thinks she's s**t but she's not. I've never met a girl who plays like that, let alone a man."

Doherty has spent weeks at the Wiltshire retreat to battle drug addiction.
