Upon hearing the news of the passing of Maurice Gibb I immediately went online and ordered this CD. I have been a huge fan of the BEE GEES and was very saddened by the news. This CD is excellent. The quality is superb and since my BEE GEES collection are on albums I wanted to update to a CD. Crisp, clear, (as CD's are) and the selection of songs are perfect. If you are a fan of the BEE GEES then this CD will not disappoint you. One of the best groups ever. Heartfelt sympathy goes out to the family of Maurice Gibb.
Rating: - BG's Ultimate Collection!!!
Aside from the 1991 box set, this is the best Bee Gees' CD you can buy if you want the whole picture.From their late 60's tunes, to their slight comeback of the early 70's, to the Disco era where they dominated the charts, through to the 80's comeback tracks "You Win Again" and "One", up to the 90's tracks that culminated to the decade ending "This Is Where I Came In"...this is the Ultimate collection of Bee Gees tracks. All of your favorites are here! Spicks and Specks, New York Mining Disaster 1941,To Love Somebody, Holiday, Words, I've Gotta Get A Message To You, Lonely Days, How Can You Mend A Broken Heart, Run To Me, Jive Talkin', You Should Be Dancing, If I Can't Have You, Saturday Night Fever tracks, To Much Heaven, Tragedy, Guilty, One, Alone, plus new recordings of Bee Gee classic recorded by other artists! Plus more! All of them are here! This CD does not leave my CD player unless I take it out - which I haven't. Bottom Line: If you are interested in the Bee Gees and don't want to spend the extra cash for either the box set of the 3 Best of packages, then get this. It is the Ultimate Bee Gees Collection!
Rating: - Completely glorious!
I agree with a previous review that a third disc could of easily been added with Living Eyes, The Woman In You, Paying the Price of Love, Ordinary Lives, many more. But with the UK version, you still get 42 wonderful Bee Gees songs, including new versions of Heartbreaker, Emotion and Islands In The Stream...sure, you don't get Dionne, Samantha or Dolly, but you get the gorgeous lead vocals from the writers of those songs, the Bee Gees. Plus you get the hard to find My World, a minor US hit from the early 70's. This is a bargain (42 songs) and a nice companion to their previous GREATEST CD set (20 songs), which includes You Stepped Into My Life. A must for any Bee Gees fan, you'll get lost in these songs and remember why they were such huge hits.
