Alex Turner is set to make a guest appearance on Tony Christie's new album.

The crooner, most recently known for the Comic Relief re-release of '(Is This the Way To) Amarillo' in 2005, is currently making a new album with Richard Hawley, and the Arctic Monkeys frontman will be guesting.

"We've been looking at songs from Sheffield so I asked Hawley 'Is there anything from the Monkeys'?" Christie told NME.COM.

"I'm going to look at doing 'Only Ones Who Know'. Alex has told Hawley he's up for it and he'll pop in."

The album, due out in October, will also feature an appearance from Jarvis Cocker.
