Back in the day, The Rolling Stones set the standard for rock n roll excess, and now the man who once led the charge, Keith Richards, has been handing out advice to a more recent rock hell-raiser.

In today’s Soundbites, our quick take on news, reviews and tabloid gossip, Bruce Dickinson moves into marketing, we look at The Walkmen’s new album and Robbie Williams has a giggle at a naked woman. There’s also news of a new Queen biopic, and some Christian students get a bit uppity with the New Pornographers.

Amy Winehouse used every celebrity’s favorite weapon (the twitter account), for hitting out at Mark Ronson.

The NME reports that the often troubled, soulful rock star used a barrage of tweets to attack her former producer today.

She wrote: ‘Ronson you’re dead to me- one album I write and you take half the credit – make a career out of it? Don’t think so BRUV.’

In today’s Soundbites we look at a disappointing weekend for Amy Winehouse, one of the many highlights from the 2010 Glastonbury festival, how The National nearly closed down an airport, and there’s the latest news from Laura Marling, Pulp, The Libertines and Mystery Jets.

British trio The Klaxons have been talking up their new album today, declaring it ‘like the first record times a thousand.’

If recent reports are correct, we might have some new music via an Amy Winehouse and Mark Ronson collaboration coming our way soon. Amy visited Ronson  at the Mayfair Hotel to pick up some lyrics and the pair was said to have spent 90 minutes working on new material.

According to Island Records Co-President, Darcus Beese, Winehouse will ‘hopefully’ release the follow up to Back To Black next year. He has confirmed to BBC News today that he has heard some demos and has been blown away by them. “I have heard a couple of demos that absolutely floored me” Beese said today, adding that the album has been recorded in fits and starts.

Its been nearly 4 years since the release of Amy’s huge second album, Back To Black. Her private life, that has been publicly displayed in the national tabloids, has definitely been a huge factor in the delay of her third album. Rumours were she did start work with Mark Ronson again sometime in 2008, but due to her erratic behaviour, the sessions were scrapped soon after.
