USED LIKE NEW. MINT CONDITION. NEVER PLAYED.
This 1973 compilation is less of an overt hitfest than its predecessor-- mostly because the Bee Gees popularity trailed off with the onset of the '70s (until their rebirth as disco gods). Consequently, this collection offers casual listeners the opportunity to delve a bit deeper into the band's catalog for some relatively obscure treasures. The selections that achieved chart success are among the band's finest--"How Can You Mend a Broken Heart" finds Barry Gibb playing soul man on a tale of exquisite heartbreak, and Robin never came so close to Orbisonesque grandeur as on the heart-tugging "Run to Me."
The lesser-known songs are just as memorable--"Melody Fair" is a lilting piece of '60s-sounding Britpop on a par with the best of the Kinks or Beatles, and the fanciful, folkish "Morning of My Life" showcases the band's idiosyncratic lyricism and unique three-part harmonies. For a non-stop flow of chart-toppers, turn to Volume One, but if you want to fully experience the glory of the Bee Gees, check out this consistently rewarding collection.
