Steyn on Peggy Lee and music biographers

Mark Steyn has a hilarious piece on Peggy Lee, and the faltering efforts of music biographers to tell her story, in the latest Maclean’s magazine. He begins like so: “Writing about music is, as they say, like dancing about architecture. To be honest, I’d like to see more of the latter, as I’d find it hard to believe Dame Margot Fonteyn interpreting the CN Tower could be worse than the average music biography.” And it just gets better from there.
