According to Rolling Stone, a collection of unreleased material from the late Amy Winehouse will be released on December 5th. The album is reportedly titled Lioness: Hidden Treasures and will contain 12 songs recorded between 2002 and 2008 including covers of “The Girl From Ipanema,” “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?” and “Body and Soul,” her duet with Tony Bennett that is also featured on his new album, Duets II.

The album was compiled by producers and collaborators Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi along with Amy’s family. It’s also reported that a donation of £1 from the sale of each copy in the UK will be donated to the Amy Winehouse Foundation, a charity that her father Mitch opened in the wake of her death earlier this year. Hope they expand that donation to include U.S. copies of her album as well, but no word on that.

Crooner Tony Bennett only gets finer with age. The 85-year-old jazz singer’s “The Lady Is a Tramp” music video, which features Lady GaGa, has hit the interwebs in its entirety. Much like Bennett’s video with the late Amy Winehouse – “The Lady Is a Tramp” gives viewers a look at their recording session in the studio as the pair lays down vocals for the remake from the 1937 Rodgers and Hart musical “Babes in Arms.”

The song appears on Bennett’s latest album, Duets II, which also features appearances from the aforementioned Amy Winehouse, Carrie Underwood, Norah Jones, Sheryl Crow, and more.

We have your first listen to a clip of Tony Bennett’s “Body & Soul” featuring the late Amy Winehouse. As expected, Winehouse’s smoky vocals blend perfectly with the timeless crooner in this contemporary love song. Needless to say, the song is a sad reminder that regardless of all her problems, she had an incredible talent — one we will only experience in retrospect from now on.

“Body & Soul” is slated to appear on Bennett’s upcoming album Duets II, which is available for purchase September 20th. In addition to Winehouse’s cameo, the album features duets with K.D. Lang, Michael Buble, Lady Gaga, Sheryl Crow, Aretha Franklin, Carrie Underwood, Norah Jones, and more.  Listen to the song snippet after the cut.
