  We study a multi-band Hubbard model in its orbital selective Mott phase, in
which localized electrons in a narrow band coexist with itinerant electrons in
a wide band. The low-energy physics of this phase is shown to be closely
related to that of a generalized double-exchange model. The high-temperature
disordered phase thus differs from a Fermi liquid, and displays a finite
scattering rate of the conduction electrons at the Fermi level, which depends
continuously on the spin anisotropy.
