A time machine to the past
Wonderful tunes that come back as fresh as when first listened to. The BeeGees were very clever composers before they took to the whole disco "Saturday Night Fever" style. Their melodies were far more complex than those of other bands of the day and even though some of the lyrics were rather mystical at times, they conveyed a love of music and an understanding of musical structure and harmonies. The only things missing on this CD are the scratches, pops and dust that I had on the vinyl disc. Great stuff!

Good music
I bought this album for my mother, who is a huge Bee Gees fan, as a birthday gift. I bought it as a digital download and was very well satisfied. Not only did I not have to wait for it to ship and arrive, but I also found that the download went quite painless and the quality was excellent. It also saved me having to rip it to my computer to put it to her MP3 player that we got as well. Digital downloads are how I am going to buy my music from now on.

One of my favorite early BGs
One of my favorite early BGs. Contains the classic "I started a joke" and the underrated but great "Kilburn Towers"

Love it!
Love it! Reminds me of the old days with my 71 Chevy Nova and my old 8-track player cruisin' on down to West Covina.

Bee Gees Idea
Most people remember the Bee Gees from the disco era but they had a whole career before and after. This is from their pre-disco days. The sound is very dated from the late 60's British scene. Lots of horns, violins, and electric guitars. I personally think the lyrics from this time period in their careers is much more interesting than the music. Also if you like Robin Gibb's voice as much as Barry Gibb's, he features more prominently in this period as a lead vocal. If you dig the Bee Gees, Idea is a must for your collection!

Must have for your collection
These were the songs that made me love their music ! Old school sure, but that's why they call them oldies but goodies.
