Answered by Stephen King
The writer of dozens of best-selling novels, from The Shining to It, chooses his favourite and most influential artists including The Rolling Stones and KC and the Sunshine Band, in a new series called Paperback Writers, also featuring Man Booker prize winner Marlon James.
“One of the questions that defines a person is … ‘is it Beatles or Stones?’” says King, who says he “got into a lot of arguments in the 70s with rock purists who absolutely hated disco”.“I thought to myself, if people hate me and if they want to downgrade my musical taste, I’ll just have to live with that and cry hot tears of shame on my pillow. If I had more time here, I’d have put on one of the Bee Gees disco songs, but that’s another story.”
