The Bee Gees, 20th Anniversary Compilation- 2 CD set. Approx. 40 songs. My wife’s newest addition to our collection of music. I never thought that I was a Bee Gees fan until I recently watched a documentary on them. That has changed, or at least my respect for their body of work has. They were largely overlooked however they have made quite a cultural impact on music. Their career began in the mid 1950’s. According to Wikipedia they recorded:
22 studio albumns
2 live albumns
15 compilation albumns
83 singles
4 soundtracks including Saturday Night Fever which was one of the best selling albumns in history.
Oh and don’t forget about Andy Gibb who held 3 positions simultaneously on the American Billboard charts at once and one song being at #1. "I just want to be your everything"
As there writing and touring career slowed and they drifted apart for personal reasons. Then they decided they needed to regroup and get productive so they became song writers. Notably here are some artists and songs that the Gibb brothers wrote. For instance.
They wrote "Grease is the word" for the movie performed by Frankie Valley
They wrote for Otis Redding
The song "Islands in the stream" huge hit that Kenny Rodgers and Dolly Parton performed
Barbara Streisand’s number one hit "Guilty" and "Woman in Love"
"Emition" by Samantha Sang
"If I can’t have you, I don’t want nobody, baby" performed by Yvonne Elliman
"Heartbreaker" performed by Dion Warwick
"Immortality" performed by Celine Dion
After listening to the new CD I came across two tracks that were recently released written and recorded by the Bee Gees and I really like them. I think you will too if you give them a chance or aren’t familiar with them.. I know that this is a departure from my normal genre but I am very open to all forms of talent. The two tracks are called "This is where I came in" and "Still Waters". I hope you enjoy the music.
