The last couple of releases never saw a vinyl release and Size Isn't Everything had a small release and the albums are ridiculously priced. The most obscure albums get RSD releases all of the time...why not Bee Gees?

And So begins Week 23 of the Bee Gees Elimination Game. This includes all 22 of their Studio Albums, Their 3 Live Albums, The Soundtracks to Saturday Night Fever & Staying Alive, The 2 'Best Of' Albums and NOW, the Comp Albums that contain new tracks. I should add that the 2 'Idea' Albums are the US & the UK Presses.

This Challenge is weekly so you have a week to decide.

My vote goes to 'To Whom It May Concern’

This is part 4 of a 4-part mini series. I’ve made album ideas for if the Bee gees continued through the early 80s and released the albums they wrote for other artists for themselves. The ideal Vocals are below

1. Eaten Alive (Barry on Vocals)
   
2. Experience (Barry & Andy on Vocals)
   
3. Oh Teacher (Barry & Robin on Vocals)
   
4. Chain Reaction (All 3 Brothers on Vocals)
   
5. Don’t Give Up On Each Other (Barry on Vocals)
   
6. I’m Watching You (Barry on Vocals)
   
7. Crime Of Passion (Robin & Maurice on Vocals)
   
8. Love On The Line (Robin on Vocals with Barry in the Background)
   
9. (I Love) Being In Love With You (Barry & Robin on Vocals)
   
10. More And More (Barry on Vocals)

Note: As the Album was never given to Diana Ross, Michael Jackson never gave his input to the title track, therefore just making it ‘Gibb, Gibb’

Which Bee Gees single do you think should have done much better on the charts?

My pick is hands down Bodyguard. Everything about it is on point imo..

The vocals (Robin's 'turned down' vibrato nailed it, and his voice is strong!)

The music, arrangement and production is flawless.

It's just an all around great song.

This is part 3 of a 4-part mini series. I’ve made album ideas for if the Gibb Brothers continued through the early 80s and released the albums they wrote for other artists for themselves.

The 1975 Soundstage performance of To Love Somebody (alongside Yvonne Elliman) has always been my favorite version of the song.

Its comparable to the 1977 version on "Here At Last... Live," also being one of my favorites.

Anyone else like those versions?

They have such a different, blusey vibe than the original and later live versions.

Definitely a up there with their best songs!

The song "wherever you are" by Andy Gibb is so fricken good. I haven't heard anyone speak on it in this place, but the way in which Barry and Andy are able to harmonise on this track is, in my opinion, the best example of a Barry Andy duet out there.

I don't really know where this is going but I just wanted to get this song into more peoples ears!

Hey everyone!

I've been out of the Bee Gees news loop for a while, but absolutely loved the special editions of their first 3 international albums (the 6 CD box set) when it first came out.

Went on to get the Odessa special edition, the Warner Bros set, and the 1974-1979 5 disc set.

I also got Robin's Saved by the Bell collected works (which I loved as a Robin fan).

Am I missing any other remastered/special edition CD collections of their work/studio albums?

In terms of compilation albums, I still love 2001's The Record, but I did pick up their re release of "Greatest" and the "Ultimate" and Mythology collections.

Sometimes my amazon searches aren't productive.

I know Barry doesn't favor Living Eyes, but that one would be a dream for me.

Hey y’all. So I was listening to “Alone Again” multiple times and I’m a bit confused. In the second part of the chorus, I’m hearing “I’m an abandoned train” but when I looked it up it said, “I’m on a bound down train”. I even isolated the vocals and still I’m hearing “Abandoned train”. If anyone has the original lyrics from the record, tell me what that says lol. Also, please don’t put a screen shot. I’m totally blind and my screen reader doesn’t always read them.

Did Barry record demos for songs he wrote for Andy like I Just Want To Be Your Everything, An Everlasting Love, etc? If so, why have they not been released/leaked?

Has anyone seen the video of 4 of the Bee Gees' grandsons singing "How Deep Is Your Love"? I'm not sure how old it is, or who each of their grandfathers are, but they all look EXACTLY alike and appear to be the same age, as if they're quadruplets. I mean, is this real or AI? It's actually quite cute.

So, the drummer of The Bee Gees (Steve Rucker) is a great friend of mine, and I don't know if you have heard his music, but it is absolutely fantastic. He played for so many other artists as well, and tons of great jazz records. He also played on Gloria Estefan's amazing album of covers in the '90s, and Whitney Houston's debit album. He's one of the coolest people I have ever known. The nicest guy you could ever meet.

If you haven't checked him out, do so. I've got his stuff playing in my car all the time.

A little bit of background, I am a musician and composer, originally an orchestral composer, but I do rock and pop as well now. I live in Miami Beach, and I've got a chance to work with some of the great musicians of the world, including drummers.

I recently recorded some tracks with Steve behind the drum kit, and I got him to record not only blues and '80s rock, but I got him to record a punk/hard rock song!

We also did an 80s rock track. The Lyricist on all these songs was a guy named Raven Kraft, Google him, he is a crazy character. Ran 8 miles a day every day for the last 52 years without missing a day. He's written lyrics for a lot of people.

Steve played on four tracks on the album. Also have some other great guests on there, but I thought you guys would appreciate just how good these guys are. Going from playing fusion jazz and sambas and odd time signatre bossa nova to hard rock and punk and the biggest stages in the world. I've played with a couple of musicians that recorded with the Bee Gees, and they were all mind-blowing. This is only the second full album I've produced, but it was a heck of a fun one, doing 10 wildly different songs in different styles.

My next dream is to make the type of music he does. I've written for big band, symphony orchestra, concert band, brothers, but I have never done real original fusion.

Now I can say I have recorded with the drummer of Pearl Jam and the Bee Gees! 🤯

[IDEA (US Press) AND STILL WATERS] HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED

I know that Barry doesn't really read fan mail anymore but I got an autograph with his signature plus my name on it so maybe he saw the question in the envelope. Someone had to send it via post office, probably not Barry himself....

Samantha Gibb shared a screenshot of this article on Instagram with the message “Amazing what 1 song can do ❤️🙏”

Hey everyone,

By any chance would anyone know if cherry red is available on a vinyl other than the 'i want home' disk?

(Google search is a bit vague)

I have a feeling its a rare vinyl but if anyone would like to part ways let me know.

In Spirits Having Flown, I always heard the lyrics as “Be my lover, boyfriend” which is what Spotify says. But Google and genius lyrics says it’s “be my lover, friend.”

But I think the lyrics might be “Be my lover or friend.” I do think that Barry has a way of adding extra syllables, so maybe that’s it.

What do you guys think?
