Her creative partner on the new album is Albert Hammond, a New York-based British singer, songwriter and producer whose songs have been performed by the Hollies, Leo Sayer, Tina Turner, Whitney Houston, Julio Iglesias and Willie Nelson, as well as having hits in his own right with songs such as It Never Rains in Southern California. He is 66, Duffy is 26, but she describes him as one of her best friends. (One of her other close friends, incidentally, is her hairdresser, who is 59.)
