Irvine thumbs-up for Jacko's Burns tunes
THE DIRECTOR of the Irvine Burns Club has revealed he is pleased at the news Michael Jackson has set the Bard's lyrics to music.
Sam Gaw was reacting to a statement from a friend of the troubled pop star, saying the pair had recorded an album of Rabbie's work with a modern backing.
Sam told the Times he "could well understand" why the King of Pop was a fan of the Ayrshire poet - but stopped short of lending his support to a musical based on Rabbie's life.
Check out the Times for more on Jacko's Burns appreciation.
