The book also explains more of the creation of Cher&#39;s Laverne character. One of my favorite stories was how they had to bribe 250 people from the farmers market next to CBS Studios with food to attend the first taping. Howard also summarizes the initial reviews of the show and the types of fan mail the show received. Hair guru Gary Chowen said the show was about 3 things: Cher\u2019s put downs, fashion, and hair. Chowen even elaborates on the odd ways the hair constructions were put together.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing as I had just seen the Sandy Duncan episode (and noticed something vaguely discomforting about it), I was amazed to read that Cher and Sandy Duncan had then fought over Duncan&#39;s come-on to Sonny and that Truman Capote had made a pass at Sonny as well (Philip Seymour Hoffman RIP). It was also fun to read about visitors to the set, like Sammy Davis Jr., over from taping <em>All in the Family<\/em>, the POW, Ronald Reagan, and more about S&amp;C&#39;s mysterious 21-room mansion on the old-Hollywood Owlwood compound.&#0160;<\/p>\n<p>The book also lists Cher&#39;s occasional award nominations, from the Grammy for best pop performance by a duo for the&#0160;<em>Sonny &amp; Cher Live<\/em> album by duo to the best pop vocal performance nomination for &quot;Gypsies Tramps &amp; Thieves,&quot; and Howard elaborates on the vocal changes Cher was going through, losing her \u201cteenage angst whine\u201d and taking on a \u201cnew sultry, low-register, contralto accentuated by a dancing vibrato.\u201d Howard also details more about the <em>Bittersweet White Light <\/em>album including the discrepancies on the back cover credits and he interviews the songwriters to some of Cher&#39;s biggest hits of the early 1970s, hearing their later-day opinions of her versions. He also captures some interesting old reviews, including the fact that&#0160;<em>Rolling Stone <\/em>Rolling Stone thought her voice (with its country sound) was attractive and that <em>Creem<\/em>
