Children Of The World
Next Thursday 8th June sees the release of Bob Stanley's new book, a definitive biography of the Bee Gees entitled 'Children Of The World'. The book - which is of course outstanding - is available to pre-order now via all good bookshops and Amazon.
To celebrate its release Bob and Travis Elborough are hosting a rare screening of 'Saturday Night Fever' from 6.30pm on Wednesday 7th of June at the Rio in Dalston, London. The screening will be followed by a Q&A and book signing and there's even an afterparty at the Marquis pub over the road where Pete Wiggs will be manning the decks. It promises to be a fun night and not to be missed.

The world is full of Bee Gees fans. Yet, for a band of such renown, little is known about Barry, Maurice and Robin Gibb.
The Bee Gees' extraordinary career was one of highs and lows. From a vicious but temporary split in 1969 to several unreleased albums, disastrous TV and film appearances, and a demoralising cabaret season, the group weren't always revelling in the glow of million-selling albums, private jets and UNICEF concerts. Yet, even in the Gibbs' darkest times, their music was rarely out of the charts, as sung by the likes of Al Green, Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton, and Destiny's Child.
Capturing the human story at the heart of the Bee Gees, this book is a lyrical and stylish read, delighting hardcore fans with its details while engaging casual pop readers who simply want to know more about this important and enigmatic group.
