Subject: Re: Book to check out
I am assuming it is the Bee Gees chapter (in its entirety or abridged?)
from Stanley's book that today appears in, of all places, The Paris Review
(blog).

There's no room to cover their entire career of course
but what he has to say is on the mark and fits in with his
goal of marking their place in pop music history.
As the Slate reviewer says, Stanley's opinions give you
plenty to argue with, but that's why it's a good
read.
