LOS ANGELES, Dec. 3 (UPI) -- U.S. television host Jimmy Fallon says his new album of comedy songs will be out in the summer.

Fallon this week announced he has signed a record deal with Warner Music Records for a compilation of tunes in the same vein as the songs he has been performing on his "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" show on NBC.

"Having a new album coming out soon on Warner Bros. means so much to me," Fallon said in a written statement. "Mostly, it means I should probably start writing some songs."

The Los Angeles Times said Fallon has sung duets on his show with stars including Mick Jagger, Justin Timberlake and Bruce Springsteen.

The upcoming CD will include numbers never heard before and others that "became instant classics after performances by Jimmy and his guests," the statement said.

Topics: Jimmy Fallon, Mick Jagger, Justin Timberlake, Bruce Springsteen
