Joe, Jim Malcolm doesn't use a modernized version of the Burn' melody. His version is exactly the same as printed in Vol 5, #413 of Johnson's Scots Musical Museum as submitted by Burns. The only difference is the key. In the book it is D major but Malcolm sings in A. And as previously posted, Burns knew BOTH airs, he just chose the first part of the traditional one supplied by Ramsay and 'tweaked' it slightly.
