Free Music Notes for The Ultimate Bee Gees (2 CD)

Free Music Review: No regrets
Hit: 5 Stars

Sometimes you buy a CD and, after listening to it, wish you hadn't bought it for whatever reason. Not the case here. Excellent music, good quality sound on two generously-filled CDs. I would recommend this to anyone who does not already own these songs on other albums. Very career encompassing. As one who was more into folk, rock and blues, I tend to favor the pre-disco era songs. I don't dislike the dance tunes, and some of them are quite good, I just prefer the older stuff. No one that I can recall had harmonies as tight as these three brothers. As a child, I listened to the Everly's and the early Beatles (how could I not) during the sixties and early seventies. The Bee Gees were the succesors to those two acts, so to speak.
After the mid-sixties, the Beatles had pretty much abandoned the harmony and were each doing there own thing. For those who claim that the earlier Bee Gees were Beatles knock-offs, I have one or two observations to make. To start, when the Beatles themselves hit the bigtime, first in Britain and then America, there were dozens of groups playing the same style (beat groups). Nobody was really copying anyone, that was the sound at the time! So when the Bee Gees hit the international scene in 1967 their sound was very similar to certain elements of the Beatles and others who embraced pop and psychedelia. However, anyone familiar with that era can tell you that the Beatles and the Bee Gees had their differences. The main difference is that, while the Beatles were becoming four creative and talented individuals creating records in the studio, the Bee Gees continued, for the most part, to remain a cohesive recording and performing act, lending their abilities to write songs with beautifully executed harmonies to the contemporary scene in the late sixties and early seventies. As such, they coud be seen as an extension of what the earlier Beatles had accomplished, or possibly what the Beatles would have sounded like in the same period if they had not fragmented (I know this sounds like a bit of a stretch coming from a HUGE Beatle fan and maybe some of you are already scratching your heads). But let's face it, the Beatles had dropped the Moon and June lyrics by '67. The Bee Gees sang what were wonderfully contemporary love songs dipped in that pop, soul, psychedlic mix that their beautiful voices and close harmonies accentuated. Great stuff. And considering they were barely out of their teens, some surprisingly introspective lyrics as well.
Let me introduce you to my wife. She loves to dance. She loves the disco stuff. Soooo, for I who have nothing (money, that is) this disc is a great buy. It has just about every great dance tune that she could want. She also likes some of the older stuff as well, her favorite being "How can you mend a lonely heart". So, this disc has the power to please fans of the older and newer Bee Gees music.
If you are heavily into the Bee Gees, then you probably already have their other albums and don't need this, but for everyone else it seems to be a good bet.

The Ultimate Bee Gees (2 CD) Poster

THE ULTIMATE BEE GEES is a double-disc career retrospective featuring the group's many hits and chart-topping singles, performances of a selection of hit songs they wrote for others, and liner notes by Tim Rice.
Tim Rice's liner notes accompanying THE ULTIMATE BEE GEES puts the group's extravagant popularity into perspective. 'Within this package is a collection of performances and songs that very few practitioners of popular music of the past could match for quality, originality, and emotion. It's the singing, the harmonies, the arrangements, the sound, the rivalry, the love, the intelligence, the determination, but above all it's the songs.'
