Bee Gees - Collected Broadcasts 1967-1996 [4CD] Limited Box Set (import)
Limited Edition 4CD Box Set!
Superb 4CD set featuring rare live and studio recordings from the Gibb brothers!
Originally formed way back in 1958, the Bee Gees worked in so many styles and guises through their extraordinary career that there can barely be a music fan alive who doesn't appreciate at least some of their work. There is of course, also, the vast majority who appreciate nearly all of it, such was the supreme ability of the Brothers Gibb to compose and perform one of the most joyous and exceptional back catalogues in musical history. And this 4CD set, which features live and studio recordings made for radio and TV broadcast at various points in their career, is directed loudly and proudly at just such a fan.
Â
Featuring, on Discs 1 and 2, tracks recorded for BBC Transmission on the (then) newly formed Radio One in 1967 and 1968. Disc 3 continues with a show the group recorded for the soundstage programme in 1975, made shortly before the Bee Gees became one of the most famous and cherished pop groups in the world during the disco boom of the late decade. Concluding this collection, Disc 4 contains the brothers' VH1 Storytellers set, recorded for both TV and Radio broadcast in 1996.
Â
Includes the tracks 'I've Gotta Get A Message To You', 'Stayin' Alive', 'Words', 'How Deep Is Your Love', 'New York Mining Disaster 1941', 'Massachusetts', 'To Love Somebody', 'Jive Talkin'', 'Run To Me', 'Nights On Broadway' and many more!
