Alright, the Bee Gees are my guilty pleasure.
I love rock, metal, etc.......but I think those guys are brilliant songwriters.
I love their pre-1970 albums.....
If you listen to their 1960's work, there is a lot of Beatles influence - lots of musical styles, great harmonies, etc.
I love the Odessa album - its the pinnacle of their 1960's sound for me.
Of course, I dig the R&B and Disco flavored stuff......Stayin Alive is one of my favorite songs.
Even in the 1980's when they were villified by everyone, they just wrote #1 hits for other artists.
Yes, they have put out their share of schlock, but I think their catalog speaks for itself.
