Summary: A Must Have
Comment: This book can only be descibed as a real joy to any true Bee Gees fan. It is down to earth and very informative. It shows the brothers for what they are, just three ordinary guys, doing what they enjoy most, creating beautiful music and sharing their wonderful gift of song with the world. I have heard tell that another book is to be relaeased in the year 2000, I hope this is in fact so, as Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb deserve more recognition for all they have given to the world over the past 35 plus years. May they continue writing wonderful music for many years to come. If you haven't got this book already and you get the chance to purchase it, don't turn away as you will never know what you have missed.

Summary: The Definitive Bio on Bee Gees, so far!
Comment: Being a lifetime fan of the Brothers Gibb, known throughout the world as the Bee Gees --- Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb --- I have bought just about every biography written, both authorized or not, and have found David Leaf's book to be the very best. He seriously details the history of this fabulous group, from the time they were youngsters singing "Bye-bye Blackbird" and "Lollipop", their struggle to make it big in Australia, to their discovery by Robert Stigwood in 1967. This fine book shows that the Bee Gees are more than just a Disco group, but a genuine phenomenon that has thrived since the 60's.

This book also has hundreds of great photographs and a listing of all their recordings. Truly a well-written tome that rises above the mere popcorn candy bios with nothing but cheesy information. However, since this book was written in the late 70's, I can only hope that it will be updated someday, to include their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and their recent successes, like their international hit album, STILL WATERS. The Bee Gees continue to prove themselves a powerhouse around the globe, and not showing any signs of slowing down, at least not in this millenium!!

David Leaf's book is a treasure to own! And you don't even have to be a Bee Gees fan, but it does help!!! The story of the brothers Gibb Stayin' Alive with the Fever!!!!
