Words - The Bee Gees Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In September 1982, Dionne Warwick released 'Heartbreaker', an album produced by the indomitable Gibb-Galuten-Richardson team. With the chart-topping title track, and success with follow-ups 'All The Love In The World' and 'Take The Short Way Home', Dionne Warwick had reasserted herself as a leading artist once again after a career that had already seen many heights since 1962. Stuart and Cristiano delve into this R&B and adult-contempo album, as well as the demos and some leftover songs.

From the Odyssey Disco dancefloor to Pepperland and all the way to Rydell High, the Bee Gees' output across 1977-78 is unparalleled. With a chart topping soundtrack album, and a collection of songs which are renowned as some of the finest in popular music, the brothers Gibb were at an all time high that not even the failure of the fever dream 'Sgt. Pepper's...' project could diminish. Stayin' Alive, How Deep Is Your Love, Night Fever, More Than A Woman... for many, these songs define the Bee Gees, but as ever there's always a lot more to uncover from this period.

Preceded by the radio and dancefloor chart-topper 'You Should Be Dancing', and succeeded by further top ten album singles, 'Children Of The World' is as commercial as they come, whilst the double live LP 'Here At Last...' encapsulates the Bee Gees on stage and riding high on their newfound success. Stuart and Cristiano delve into these two albums, and are honoured to have Vince Melouney answer their questions on 'Let It Ride', a song which he co-wrote with Barry Gibb in 1976. "What you doin' on your bed on your back?" the Bee Gees ask, and quite right too, as 1976 is as productive a year as ever for the Brothers Gibb. We should all be dancing!

Stuart and Cristiano discuss the Bee Gees’ breakout release from 1975. The realisation of Barry’s falsetto, the developing R&B and disco influences, and the input from new surroundings in America and collaborators Blue Weaver and Albhy Galuten result in a commercial, critical and chart success of an album for the Brothers Gibb. It’s time for the ‘Main Course’…

Stuart and Cristiano return to pick up where they left off, starting in 1974 with 'Mr. Natural'. Working with the prolific and renowned R&B producer and arranger Arif Mardin, the Bee Gees uncovered a new sound, and one which would come to define their music forever. Soft keyboards, luscious strings and breathy vocals, all blended with Mardin's R&B and American touch, results in one of the most fascinating Bee Gees albums. In Part 1, Stuart and Cristiano go through the album and the story of its recording. There's a lot to say about this one…

Stuart and Cristiano reach the end of their travels through the Bee Gees' formative years in Australia, and wrap up Season 2, by discussing the rest of the brothers' music and activities of 1966. Throughout the remainder of this year, the Bee Gees gave a large amount of material to other artists, and they recorded a collection of covers of musical standards remaining as productive and prolific as ever. All of this before they set sail for the UK in 1967, and the rest is history…

It’s 1966, a revolutionary year for the commercial music landscape, which has dramatically changed since the Gibb family arrived in Australia. The new studio space and endless time spent there allows the Bee Gees to let loose and produce a vast and eclectic amount of material over the course of this year. Maurice has his first compositions and collaborates with Nat Kipner, Robin also debuts his solo compositions and develops his unique style, and Barry continues to adapt to his musical surroundings. Stuart and Cristiano go through the first half of 1966, detailing the Bee Gees’ second studio album ‘Spicks and Specks’, as well as a collection of additional material.
