Following the BBC4 doc on Saturday it's forced me to download some albums - my GOD they have some awesome funky album tracks. Not keen on the folky pre 75 stuff, but Main Course>Children of the World>Saturday Night Fever>Spirits Having Flown

Love You Inside Out

Warm Ride - An outtake from the Album that eventually became Saturday Night Fever.....

Reaching Out

You Stepped Into My Life

Can't Keep A Good Man Down

Now you've dug those out, go one step further & get Andy Gibbs solo albums from around the same time:

Shadow Dancing & After Dark. The Gibb Bros were involved in these albums too, same type of production. Gr8 tracks on both.

Aw, I missed that programme, hope they repeat it.

Love the Bee Gees, my favourites are:

Saved By the Bell
First of May
Don't Forget To Remember Me

I am just going to listen to the tracks you posted voodoochick.

They are musical treasures.

Awww, the Bee Gees.....

I love all of the above, and also this:

How Deep Is Your Love

:

oh yeah goes without saying - all the tracks from SNF rock + Tragedy and Too Much Heaven. Of the later tracks I like Alone

Reaching Out isn't funky!! I meant to put

Living Together

i caught the tail end of the documentary and it was a good watch. they have wrote so many hits to be fair and many for other artists too. bbc4 has been compulsive watching the last week.

I'm afraid I fancy 70's/early 80's Barry Gibb !!

Nights on Broadway:

Nah, hate the Disco stuff, the early records were much better (IMO).

they did have the tacky tag post `saturday night fever`, which is unfair in a way. like as if they were punished for its huge success. however, to be fair, they did come back time and time again with a big hit eventually. i remember when `paying the price of love` came out and i kind of liked it. however, the vocals were too high in parts and it was totally naff in its time in all honesty. then they released `for whom the bell tolls` and they had another hit against the odds.

Tragedy, Too Much Heaven and Love You Inside Out were the next 3 singles post SFN - by then "Disco Sucks" was in full swing and they lost all momentum

you know what i mean though, it was overexposure and it did make them seem a little naff.

Yeah of course...I was just saying about the time America went super anti disco/borderline homophobic with burning millions of disco records....and bringin back good ol' Rock N Roll for the hetero

yeah, i saw that on another documentary this weekend on bbc4. i did get your point and agree that didn't help their credibility at all. however, we are talking about the US and the rest of the western world collectively rolled their eyes. i think it was overexposure and perhaps the `death of disco`.

he epitomised everything wrong with 70's 'medalion men'... they were seedy scumbags who notched up sexual conquests and thought they were cool...no they were *****.


full agreement. i detest their disco material, but love their 60's material.

Somebody hates disco and the era - were you there in sme stadium pouring petrol with all the other rednecks??
and Barry was one hot sexy man!!

I loved this song and the whole Spirits Having Flown album. World class.

You'll probably have a 'penchant' for Kris Kristofferson too then...

Andy & Barry were the best lookin, poor old Robin was hit by the ugly stick!
