Terrible, terrible news from the Guardian. Michael Jackson has been at work with some British celebrity I've never heard of, David Gest, on an album whose lyrics will be the poetry of Robert Burns, Scotland's most celebrated versifier. "He [Gest] explained that he and Jackson were originally planning to do a musical about Burns's life, but decided instead to turn his poetry into show tunes." I guess that's a small blessing, anyway.
But all is not dour. The article ends on a happy note, saying, "There are no current plans to release the recording as an album."--David E
