In the second halfof 1979 Barry and Robin wrote the first set of songs together,followed by another set by Barry and Albhy, and lastly a song bythe three brothers.Īt the same time Barry wrote and recorded a third Andy Gibb album, andRobin and Blue Weaver started recording an album for Jimmy Ruffin. The high-profile project was an album of songs for Barbra Streisand,proposed this year after she saw them perform in Los Angeles, or possibly a year earlier- accounts differ. Toward the end of 1979 Barry and Robinstarted on three projects. The Bee Gees' plan for the future- and they had decidedthis by late 1978, before the backlash took hold- was to besongwriters and producers. Their success was their weakness.Barry's music had dominated the charts, so he was a prime target. This should not necessarily have doomed artists as musicallydiverse as the Bee Gees, but the public have a short memory and discowas what they were identified with. They anticipated thattheir time in the spotlight was up, and they were right about that.The ‘disco sucks' movement took hold in mid-America in thesummer. The Bee Gees spent most of 1979 rehearsing and playing live shows inlarge venues. The concert on Januraised a hundred milliondollars for the cause. This led to two things: late in the year they donated to UNICEFthe income from the song on their new single ‘Too MuchHeaven', and they put together an all-star concert at the UnitedNations. They spoke of donating the income from a hit song, and ofpossibly doing something else as well to raise money for children inneed. At the time, it did elicit some unspoken resentment from older fans who knew their hits from the 1960s, but as a collection of first-rate '70s dance music it was unimpeachable.īarry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb held a press conference in May 1978 atthe United Nations headquarters in New York in which they praised thework of UNICEF and spoke about wanting to give back something to theworld.
It was a perfect distillation of the sound that had put the Bee Gees on top of the pop music world from 1975 onward. Gibb Songs version 2by Joseph Brennan, copyright 2006-2013 New Listing Bee Gees Greatest Hits Original 1979 LP Dbl Album - New/Sealed.
