  • Guilty
    Mar 24 2024

    The vocal prowess of Barbra Streisand with the production and songwriting talents of the Gibb-Galuten team... it's a match made in music heaven. And the results prove it. The album 'Guilty', released September 1980, stormed to number one all over the world, accompanied by chart-topping singles. Closing off Season 3 with style, Stuart and Cristiano discuss this masterful album, comparing the finished product to Barry's demos, whilst also exploring Streisand's earlier work, to understand how this project came to such magical fruition.

  • Sunrise
    Jan 21 2024


    In May 1980, Jimmy Ruffin released his seventh and final studio album, 'Sunrise'. This often-overlooked album consisted of compositions by Robin Gibb and Blue Weaver (with contributions from Barry, Maurice and Andy), with the pair also producing the album. 'Sunrise' is a fascinating combination of the distinct Robin Gibb lyrics, Weaver's trademark arrangements and Ruffin's motown style. When Marcy Levy's vocals and 1970s soul sounds are added in, the result is a charming and totally unique album in the Gibb catalogue. Stuart and Cristiano delve into 'Sunrise', as well as some surrounding material from Robin.

  • After Dark
    Dec 3 2023

    Stuart and Cristiano delve into Andy Gibb's third and final studio album, 'After Dark', released in early 1980. The discouse which often surrounds this album focuses on the overdubs and input from Barry (who also pens almost all of the material on this album), due to Andy's declining vocal capabilities and his absence from recording sessions. However, there's a whole new side to 'After Dark', as Stuart will explain...

Great Bee Gees podcast by father and son

I'm so glad Stuart and Cris decided to launch this podcast. I'm sure it's a lot of work to research, but you can tell it is a labor of love. The Bee Gees are criminally under-represented in the podcast space, but this father-son dynamic duo help fill the void, and they know their stuff well! I am a big fan of the Bee Gees, have every thing they ever released musically and just about every book ever published about them. I own the Andrew Sandoval Day by Day book, but it's more like a daily journal. I haven't gone through that one completely. Anyway I have learned a lot of interesting bits from listening to Stuart and Cris' podcast (episodes 1-7). The podcast is very well done. Not a bunch of loud opinionated hot air, but thoughtful objective reviews presented in a relaxed and easy to listen to manner. I am eagerly looking forward to the next one! Thank you for doing these!
