Amy Winehouse's father has no plans of releasing new tracks from the singer.

Mitch Winehouse admits he's in possession of unheard vocals recorded by the singer, but he doesn't want to "rip off" fans by releasing them to her loyal supporters.

Speaking to BBC News, Mitch said: "We're not about to put out new albums with different takes on 'Back To Black'. She probably did 15 different versions of 'Back To Black' but we wouldn't do that, it's not fair. We don't want to rip people off. There is no more new music."

Meanwhile, those who have opposed a life-sized statue in tribute to Amy - unveiled this weekend in Camden, North London - have earned a response from Mitch.

"Let them come and take it down.

"They'll have to fight their way through millions of fans who do think it should be there."

Mr Winehouse had previously admitted "bursting with pride" over the statue.

"I'm bursting with pride because Camden, along with other councils, won't allow a plaque or statue for at least 20 years after the person has passed away and they've allowed this straight away.

"So, it's a fantastic testimony to Amy, her love of Camden and Camden's love of her. It's wonderful. It's great to be a part of it."
