Finally, our uber-Dean Martin enthusiast, Dino Martin Peters poses this question about March 7 blog covering biographies of the singer-actor:

Hey pallies, Mr. Frank and Mr. Joe likes …now you got me wonderin’ by your words, ‘Well, Dino in his inimitable prose style surprised us with the following…’

Gotta ‘fess up that I am likes totally totally surprised that youse all were ‘surprised’ by my Dino-reflections on Nick Tosches’ tome. Might I ask you to say more ’bout what surprised you and why?

We were a tad surprised, given your feelings about Martin, to read of your unqualified enthusiasm for author Nick Tosches’ 1999 biography Dino: Living High In The Dirty Business Of Dreams.

Unlike books about the late actor-singer by his children, Tosches’ takes a tougher stance towards Martin, and doesn’t hesitate to criticize him. Give your enthusiasm for Dino, we thought this might not sit well. Glad it does.
