I know where to end - 1975's "Jive Talkin'." That was their last good moment, otherwise I'm sticking with everything before then. No disco for me!
lol - i don't want to be too precious about it and i'm not a disco fan, but they kinda transcend the genre, no? as mentioned above, their harmonies are incredible...sets them apart in fact...no?
Not really. Those were still bad disco-pop records no matter who was doing them, and I'll listen to KC (for real, not joking!) if I want Caucasian disco. "To Love Somebody" is FAR superior to "Night Fever," IMO...
Yes, the Bee Gees are . I celebrate the entire catalog...Children of the World is an underrated blue-eyed soul masterpiece LP IMO.
Anyone heard their unreleased post-psyche/pre-disco album A Kick In The Head Is Worth Eight In The Pants? Got some nice tunes in the Trafalgar/To Whom It May Concern steez.
Massive childhood nostalgia vibes might tint my specs, but responsible for some fantastic tunes. The kind of shit not knocked out on the demo version of Fruity Loops.
Playing 'Too Much Heaven' on guitar, with heavilyoverdriven crunch distortion, stadium reverb and chorus maxed out is one of life's lesser known but greatest pleasures.

Dudes who dismiss the Bee Gees out of disco hatt can be converted. They just need to hear the songs in a different context. And that context is heavy metal.
