Ha!
Murderer Charles Manson wants to collaborate with producer Phil Spector. Manson, who has been in prison since 1971, and Spector, are currently both at California's Corcoran State Prison.
Spector's publicist Hal Lifson told BBC 6music that his client had been "shaken" when he was handed a note from Manson by a prison guard suggesting that the two hook up to make music together.
Manson has made several records while in prison, including both music and spoken word albums.
In the note Manson called Spector the "greatest producer who ever lived".
"Phil Spector has been very, very alarmed and scared at the notion of Charles Manson contacting him for any reason," Lifson said, adding that the collaboration won't take place. "He is very worried that any association be made between himself and Charles Manson. He mentioned that he used to get phone calls from John Lennon and Tina Turner, and now it's Charles Manson. He said, 'Go figure'. It was kind of a dark humour comment."
