Details: Product description brand new Amazon.ca The Very Best Of The Bee Gees collects the brightest spots from one of pop's longest and most singular careers. When The Bee Gees released "New York Mining Disaster 1941", their first single, the easy melodicism and flawless three-part harmony--sung in broad North-of-England accents--sounded so like The Beatles that a rumor went around that it actually was the Fab Four in disguise. A back-handed compliment, but a telling one: from the start, The Bee Gees had real quality, and a feel for commercial pop that at least stood comparison with the greats. Ten years on, their transformation from earnest, tuneful geeks to hirsute, laid-back disco kings (around the time their manager happened to be producing a low-budget pop movie called Saturday Night Fever) didn't just resurrect their career, it made them the biggest group in the world. It's those songs that remain The Bee Gees' crowning glory: instantly appealing, produced and performed with the kind of precision that would shame NASA. --Taylor Parkes
