Rulers of the disco era, the fraternal purveyors of nine #1 hits, including “Stay- in’ Alive” and “Night Fever,” seemed destined to have their songs trotted out for nostalgic purposes only — on Oldies Night, say, in the lounge of the airport Holiday Inn. But then Al Green cov- ered “How Can You Mend a Broken Heart” so well no one else had to sing it again. And songs like “How Deep Is Your Love” showed stay- ing power with their delicate sense of melody. But this is 2016, and the new release up for consid- eration is “In the Now.” It comes from the last surviving Bee Gee, Barry Gibb, who soldiers on without his late brothers, Robin and Maurice. Gibb, who did a nostalgia tour a few years ago, is do- ing something braver now: offering original music. The songs, co-written with his two sons, are sometimes corny and too wordy. But Gibb still has a striking sense of melody, and there are poignant lyrics here — most notably on songs that are themselves nostal- gia trips, like “End of the Rainbow” and “Home Truth Song.” Gibb seems to honor his brothers on that one when he sings: “We stand together in a one-man show.” Will the new songs hold up? Hey, no predictions here. A lot of us were wrong the irst time. Bruce Springsteen talks depression, family and his new memoir By JOCELYN GECKER ASSOCIATED PRESS SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Bruce Springsteen credits his music with helping him navigate depression and says playing marathon shows un- til he was exhausted helped chase away the blues. The legendary rock star spoke to a sold-out crowd in San Francisco Oct. 5 in a one-hour, 20-minute on-stage interview as part of a nationwide tour for his best-selling new autobiogra- phy “Born To Run.” “The Boss” has a story- teller’s knack for recounting the past in vivid detail, with quick wit and humor. He discussed the labored process of writing the book, which took seven years, his troubled relationship with his father, sweet memories of raising his children with wife and longtime backup singer, Patti Scialfa, and his history with depression, as he does in the book. “I think music was the way that I medicated myself in the beginning. It was the irst thing that centered me and chased away the blues,” Springsteen said, seated in an armchair beside his interviewer on stage at the historic Nourse Theater. “I found that the experi- ence of playing cleared my mind and gave me a brief moment of respite from the things that tended to disturb me,” he said. “I found out that exhaustion was my friend. Because if I got myself tired enough, I was simply too tired to be depressed.” Dressed in his uniform of jeans and a black leath- er jacket, Springsteen is a youthful 67. The only visible nods to his age: A slightly re- ceding hairline and a need for reading glasses — he calls them “cheaters” — when asked to read from his book. He joked about the seven-year writing process for his 508-page book: “Yeah, that sounds like I did a lot more work than I did,” drawing laughter. He wrote when it moved him, dictating one section at a time to an assistant, “who would put it in the comput- er.” He edited and rewrote until he igured, “Well, that’s as good as I can do without somebody’s help.” PHOTO BY GREG ALLEN/INVISION/AP, Bruce Springsteen The father of three said he tried to keep his stardom away from home. “There wasn’t any memo- rabilia around the house, we didn’t have any of that stuff out. We had some guitars and a piano,” Springsteen said. “We never made a big deal of it in the house.” Well into their teens, his children were “relatively unfamiliar with most of the work I’d done,” he said, “which is very normal. I mean, I wasn’t out there looking for three more fans,” pausing for laughter. “Your job is you’re sup- posed to be their audience. They’re not supposed to be yours,” Springsteen said. The book “Born to Run” came out in late September and has risen to the top of best-seller lists. But Spring- steen doubts he’s got a sequel in him: “I think this is my swan song. I can’t imag- ine writing another one.”
