Not only is this the WORST biography on the Gibb family, it is the worst biography I have ever read. I just found exaggerations of rumors and whispers. There is no new information or great revelations in this book that are reliable. It is like he took The National Enquirer and just reworded every article ever printed on the Bee Gees and Andy Gibb. Meyer has enraged Gibb fans all over the world. Da Capa Press, the publishers of this book should be ashamed of themselves to allow such a travesty to be put to print. I could go on and on about the mistakes in this book.
This are but a few of the factual errors to be found. This song was released after Andy's death on a greatest hits album. Also, one of the weirdest errors was the identification of the song "Man on Fire" as being included on the After Dark album.
BEE GEES DOCUMENTARY JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE FULL
Other errors within the same chapter include the author identifying Andy's full name as "Andy Roy Gibb". And, yes they were brown, not "piercing, sparkling blue." His brown eyes were the last thing I saw when I went to sleep at night and the first thing I saw in the morning. I know this because those brown eyes looked down on me every night for many years. Andy had BROWN eyes like all of his brothers.
On the second page of this chapter, not only does the author mis-identify the color of Andy's eyes as "piercing, sparkling blue eyes", he goes on for the rest of the page talking about how those "piercing, sparkling blue eyes" entranced many a television interviewer. I was prepared for whatever crap Meyer had to fling. I have to admit, when I got the book, I skipped to page 225, the chapter "Andy Gibb", the love of my teenage years.
But I have to admit, my curiosity got the best of me, I had to have Bee Gees the biography by David Meyer.Īs stated by other reviewers, this book is riddled with not only spelling errors of the worst kind (ie Barry Gordy for Berry Gordy), but also factual errors that even the casual reader could spot. I was told by Barry Gibb himself on Twitter that this book was trash.
