A Perth -born songwriter who is learning, recording and rewriting 892 Robert Burns songs is nearing the halfway stage of his immense musical rejuvenation project.
Come May 25, Eddie Cairney (70) will have completed song number 446 in his revamp of the National Bard’s lengthy musical discography.
The project was launched on July 21 last year to mark the 225th anniversary of Burns’ passing and will take until March 2023 to complete.
