    You really need to watch their documentary on HBO Max “How Do You Mend A Broken Heart” to understand why being categorized as Disco was their downfall. There is nothing wrong with disco, it’s just dance music that made people feel good...But The Bee Gees were so much more, you really need to listen to the earlier stuff (showcases Robins beautiful voice) “I Started A Joke” “Massachusetts” The Bee Gees were music chameleons but they loved R&B which you can hear a lot in their music. Maurice played the bass, guitar, and keyboards, and Barry played the guitar.

    The Bee Gees were around way before Disco. They did a few songs that worked for the Disco genre and suddenly, they became the face of Disco. So when the Disco craze ended, their careers took a deep nosedive. Their catalog is amazing and covers many genres. And you might be surprised to find out that Robin sings lead, also. So glad you're discovering them. And BTW, I love Disco, so no disparagement from me :)

    Oh young Grasshopper, you have so much to learn, especially about The Bee Gees. This song was a hit for them around 1975. By this time they had already been performing together for nearly 20 years. What do you think they were doing before and after their Saturday Night Fever days (the only period you have even touched on so far)? Perhaps you will truly understand the magic that is The Bee Gees after you hear another 100 songs or so. Even then there will still be much to learn!

    Disco would have never catapulted to the the heights it did without the Bee Gees. I love Disco and always will. You'll find that so many of their songs can fit in so many categories. They reinvented themselves all the time but once they discovered Barry's falsetto it became a signature sound for them because it was different than anyone else's. Andy was 12 years younger than Barry but they were so much alike they were like twins. You'll understand completely when you hear Andy. He had three number one hits in a row. At one time Andy started growing a beard and he looked just like Barry.

His very famous, much older brothers already had a decade of international success before we even heard of Andy. We thought of him as their baby brother, a "mini Barry" &/or a solo artist, but not as part of the group. Now, after his drug use so tragically destroyed his health & career, in early 1988, his brothers announced he would become a Bee Gee, beginning with their next tour (which I believe was to be 1989), but sadly he died before that happened.

You should also check out their 1960s & early 1979s stuff and you’ll see why Jive Talking was such a shock to everyone. We said “wait, THIS is the BeeGees!?” LOVE IT!

    "Saturday Night Fever" was considered a disco song, and this song was considered kind of funk. Like most of the other musicians you've covered, the Bee Gees changed their sound with the times, so on songs from the mid-seventies like this 1975 one, it'll have the funk or disco sound that was in at the time, while their stuff from the late 1960s sounds like that era, with some psychedelic influence, songs like 1967's "In My Own Time." And if you really wanna hear a great funk-disco song from their mid-seventies period that'll have you dancing, try "You Should Be Dancing" from 1976, a huge hit.

  • @jb8280
    @jb8280 6 месяцев назад +2

    This track was their big breakthrough into their second phase of their career. They were Beatlesque top 40 band in the 60s, but as the sixties became the 70s, nothing they were putting out was resonating with anyone or selling. They moved to Florida and this was a new sound and they fully embraced a new sound and it opened a whole new audience for them. This is pre-disco era by a few years.
    Andy was their younger brother. He looked like Barry and so Barry treated him sort of like his twin coz Robin and Maurice were actual twins. Barry wrote and recorded for Andy and he became a teen heartthrob and had many Barry penned top forty hits. Sadly, addiction took him too soon.

    Bit of history - the Bee Gees wrote and recorded about 5 songs in a few days in the middle of doing an album (separate from the album) after their manager requested it for this movie (Saturday Night Fever) he was associated with. That's where the disco vibe comes from - but they're always borderline disco anyway.

      Yes, totally agree. Most of the stuff that people know is just the stuff that crossed over, but it isn't the hardcore disco that was played in the serious disco clubs. The Bee Gees are great, but they themselves said that they never considered themselves a disco act, and I agree. They are extremely talented beyond just disco.

    Andy is their youngest brother, and had his own solo career. He was a teen hearthrob because he was only around 20 when he became famous and very cute. Sadly he was the first to die at age 30 in 1988. His first three songs went to number one, they are,, “I Just Want To Be Your Everything,” “Shadow Dancing,” and “(Love Is) Thicker Than Water. A great dance songs of the Bee Gees is " You should be dancing' and Andy is in the video singing with his brothers. Interesting story about "Jive taking" they were originally going to call it Drive talking because a bridge like formation they crossed on their way everyday to their recording studio in Florida made that sound they have in the song in the intro. Jive was slang back then for dont be kidding or joking around .
