Best later day Bee Gees album

High Civilization or Size Isn't Everything for me. The former is usually put down for being this arid pretentious Prince-swingbeat-AOR mess but I love any and all Gibb attempts at overt modernity, and those two (and E-S-P) have the highest quota of dance songs.

I hope there's some interesting discussion here, but there's not a single song I've heard on a couple of compilations (or on the radio) that's prompted me to listen further to anything later than 1979. At a pinch I'd pick "This Is Where I Came In" as best song.

Idk if I ever see the Gibbs discussed here?

Get thee to this thread:

DON'T FORGET TO REMEMBER: The Official ILM Track-By-Track BEE GEES 1968-1981 Listening Thread

Stops at 1981 though.

I actually love "One," partly because of the slight tension between the bass guitar, clippety-cloppety beat, and the vehement wussiness of those vocals and harmonies.

There’s good stuff on all of them but Size Isn’t Everything is the one for me - it’s fun, somewhat adventurous and the big hit is lovely in that Pebble Mill middle England way.
I have to mention the title track of Still Waters because I think Robin delivers arguably his best ever vocal performance on any Bee Gees record on it - and it lasts only a few seconds. It’s a two-line middle eight before Barry takes the mic again. Oh Robin.

DON'T LET HIM GET TOO CLOSE TO YOO-OOOUU

Also am gonna have fun going through the 68-81 thread
