I could not get into this book. It's a shame because I love the Bee Gees. The way it was written didn't work for me. It felt very impersonal and dry. If you want to read a good book about the Gibb family I recommend Arrow Through the Heart: The Biography of Andy Gibb by Matthew Hild. That was much better.

I haven‘t posted in a bit because I have been working nonstop. But I missed you guys, and I‘m looking forward to being more present this month. Starting with my next read. Needed a bit of a palate cleanser from all the dark romances, though I have a lot on this month‘s list to. I picked this up last year in Texas, I think it‘s about time I read it. Yes, I know, not all the bands depicted in this post were part of LookOut, but they‘re my favorite.

Yuval Sharon‘s passion for his topic shines through on every page of this engaging, accessible book. While he does assume you‘ve got some basic opera knowledge, there‘s enough context here for even neophytes to follow along with each of his points—and to interrogate those points against their own experience of the performing arts. I had an excellent time doing just that, and now I‘m all fired up to explore EVEN MORE OPERA. Highly recommended.

My hold finally came in, just in time for #TuesdayTunes! Love the Bee Gees!

Thanks to @dabbe & @TheSpineView for the #TLT #ThreeLineThursday tag.🤗

Pretty happy with this score. I watched a lot of movies growing up & movie music is a favorite!

Some definite favorites on this list:
1. The Way You Look Tonight (one of my favorite songs ever)
2. Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas (fave Christmas song/version)
3. Rainbow Connection (gets me every time!😢)
4. Let the River Run (great movie & anthem)
5. Moon River 💙

Thanks for the tag @BookwormAHN ! Surprisingly knew more than I thought. I listen to a lot of folk and alt now, so not surprised I didn‘t see anything from my usual playlist, but these three have got to be my fav from the 100.
