That's an interesting thought, that it is difficult to be fan and enjoy the book, but I think that is true now that you mention it. I guess I was disappointed that Collins focused more on how Lightfoot got to the top through persistence and business skills (which are good things to have, BUT....) and didn't realy talk about the fact that he is a brilliant songwriter. If Collins were asked it seems he would say G.L. got where he did by accident or something, not by the fact that he is amazing. I mean, Collins dissmisses a number of albums as being a result of G.L.'s alcoholism and not very good. Well, I damn well thought they were good and so did a lot of other people. So there. Ok, will stop ranting now. Chris, thanks for discussing with me.
