This review is from: The Bee Gees: A Photo-Bio (Paperback)
This book was written right before their last successful album (at least for awhile) was released, Spirits Having Flown. But it's quite thorough. It tells all about the brothers' beginning, when they left Australia to go to England for some success, all the way to the Saturday Night Fever story. Some things I never knew were that Barry married his producer's (Robert Stigwood), secretary. Robin married the Beatles' producer's secretary. Another thing is that they never knew for what type of a movie they were making the Saturday Night Fever songs for. They just produced their best in 2 weeks and handed it to Stigwood. They write all their songs in minutes to hours and can't even read music! There's alot to learn in this book, although you'd probably want to buy a newer book. Kim Stevens mentions that they probably won't split up again, but right after the 1981 album Living Eyes, they do. Much to learn in newer books, but not bad for its year.
