The Very Best Of The Bee Geescollects the brightest spots from one of pop's longest and ... more
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 rumour 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 calledSaturday Night Fever) didn't just resurrect their career, it made them the biggest group in the world.

Currently, the official BeeGees website is still not available as Barry and Robin are deciding what to do next after Maurice's death. However, they'll just use their own names for further material rather than the BeeGees moniker. They've had a chequered history and tragedy at times, as well as a bad reputation at others but the music speaks for itself.
The BeeGees were born in the Isle of Man and lived in Manchester but moved to Australia, apparently after their parents were concerned about the level of (somewhat illegal) mischief they were getting into. It was a bit dramatic to take them to the other side of the world but it's just as well for the world of pop that they did ...

't last and eventually they changed it to The BeeGees, which later in their music career they dropped the 'The' part and stuck with just BeeGees.
