Bee Gees Greatest Bee Gees

Works perfectly

So much great music from one of music’s greatest groups! Stellar!

El auténtico recopilatorio de Bee Gees, pero ojo ! sólo contiene los temas de los 70 correspondientes a sus mejores ábumes: Main Course, Children of the World, Saturday Night Fever y Spirits Having Flown. Incluye las caras B de los singles de Saturday, a destacar la versión original de IF I CAN HAVE YOU que en Saturday la destroza Yvonne Elliman...y bueno que decir, yo tenia unos 12 años cuando salió el vinilo que aún conservo y era increible con aquella portada triple y sus fotos impresas en cada una de las galletas del disco. Ahora con el CD se pierde todo eso pero están los bonus tracks.Se puede decir que eran para chicas o ñoños, nada de eso, conseguid el álbum en directo HERE AT LAST. BEE GEES LIVE ! y ya veréis. A mi me gusta el rock progresivo y los grupos más duros como King Crimson o AC/DC pero los Bee Gees son los Bee Gees, temas como How deep is your love que es insuperable, o Night Fever o Love so Right o Nights on Broadway... Las nuevas generaciones tendrían que tener este disco. ------------------------------------ This is the authentic Bee Gees compilation, look out ! only contains thmes from their better four seventies albums: Main Course, Children of the World, Saturday Night Fever y Spirits Having Flown. Also includes singles B sides like If I cant have you or Rest your love on me, one unreleased theme and some SNFever remixes. I can still recall when I got the original album in 1979, I was 12 years old or so, it was a double vinyl with a triple cover and their faces printed over every side cooky, really great, now the CD ain't so "romantic" but we've got the bonus tracks. Maybe you can say: "bee gees are a girls band" not a bit of it! get the album: Here At Last, Bee Gees Live and you'll see... My prefer kind of music is rock or progressive rock, bands like King Crimosn or AC/DC but Bee Gees ARE THE BEE GEES, songs like How deep is your love, Night Fever, Nights on Broadway, More than A Woman, simply unsurpassable. New generations might have this album... Bee Gees forever! Robin, Barry and Maurice (Andy) wherever you were.

Of course, I think this is the best music. I love the BeeGees. What an awesome group. I remember when someone made it his mission to get rid of disco music. Ppl were together, enjoying fun music you cud dance to . Ppl were so happy they cud participate in togetherness that was great socializing. Dancing The Hustle required a partner, plus there was a learning curve but all of it was good fun. The someone , a Chicago disc jockey, decided disco music had to go. He made a BIG gathering at one of the ball fields. The jockey was in charge and his thinking was he hated ppl having fun. So he blew up a the disco records . Many 'followers' attended. And that was the end of great music like the BEEGEEs (and other groups too) So, it's really good to have these CDs. Perfect condition. And love listening in the car in rhe house, at the lake. Where ever. It's perfect. and you followers that participated, shame shame shame. My grandaughters music is tr*sh. She even says so. She says 'yall have a harmony and a beat. We dont". So, love having this CD!!

Received on time, and as requested. Would buy again from the seller.

While I definitely would rate the collection of songs here as 5 stars, as it covers the disco era of the Bee Gees very nicely (except for the absence of "Emotion" and "I Just Want To Be Your Everything"), I, personally, was disappointed in the remastering on the majority of the songs on this double CD. I know this is a matter of taste, and I am not such a music purist as to discount all remastering efforts (as some of my friends are) on all music from the past. However, having listened to this same music profusely in the 70's, the songs are ingrained into my both my heart and my mind. And, unfortunately, I found the remastering on the majority of the dance hits on this CD to be heavy-handed enough to significantly change the original recordings, and, not always for the better. Particularly, the first five tracks of the first CD, "Jive Talkin'", "Night Fever" (which at least they labeled a "remix"), "Tragedy", "You Should Be Dancing", and "Stayin' Alive" have a significant increase in the percussion portions of the songs (the underlying "dance beat"), that the vocals tend to get lost in the mix. (Interestingly, the 12" Promo version of "Stayin' Alive" on the first CD has a better quality of remastering than the track number 5 version.) I think they did a better job on some of the ballads on the CD, most notably "How Deep Is Your Love", and "Love So Right". The remastering effort is much more transparent, and the listener is left with an updated, quality version of the music that is completely true to the original recording. Both versions of "Night Fever" on this CD are labeled as "remixes", though the first one (Future Funk Squad Remix) comes closer to the original song. And, the packaging is very poor, as it is almost impossible to remove the CD's from the cardboard case without handling the underside of the CD's. As I mentioned earlier, whether one likes or dislikes a "remastered" version of a favorite song is a matter of taste. I am personally disatisfied enough with this set to look for an alternative CD or CD's to complete my Bee Gee's library. My final rating is closer to 3 and one-half stars than 4. I hope that those who are interested in purchasing this set will at least attempt to seek a way to listen to some of the tracks on these CD's before they buy them, perhaps through a music service on the web or by borrowing them from a friend, especially if the buyer loves and remembers well the original versions of these songs!

Love it ! Will order others.
