Yes! Was hoping someone knew more about this. Is this the best record for when they were making this sort of sound?

#12

I dunno that much either but i’ve got Odessa and it’s pretty good, think that’s their most acclaimed 60s album

#13

Chicken steak?

#14

I’m solely a greatest hits guy with the bee gees, but yeah, wall to wall classics.

wouldn’t call myself a massive fan but they’ve written some fucking amazing music and they really are good songwriters.
I’ve got no beef with the bee gees

I bloody love their albums up to, and including, Odessa (“I preferred their early stuff”).

#21

Main Course looks like a good album too.

The one with Jive Talkin’ on it.

You know how they lived near Brisbane early in their career, first becoming successful while in Australia, but by no means would you think of them as an Australian band?

Well not in Australia! They’re pretty much referred to as an Australian band. Check out any list of “Best ever Australian bands” and they’ll likely be in there, which seems a bit sad.

Also, the seaside town they lived in, Redcliffe, actually has a Bee Gees way full of statues, murals, their music blaring in the middle of the street and is #2 on Tripadvisor for things to do in Redcliffe (tbf, they’re no whales).
