This album is the follow-up of Saturday Night Fever. And it does not disappoint!
The Bee Gees show off their wonderful talents on this album. With Barry mostly on vocals and excellent music as the accompaniment, these songs have alot to offer. This is the album that brought classics like Tragedy, Too Much Heaven and Spirits Having Flown to the music world.
Tragedy, the first track from the album, is a fast, upbeat song that the Bee Gees penned in an afternoon of experimenting- the same afternoon as Too Much Heaven, although this was released a while afterwards- with sounds. It is beautifully written, the lyrics keep pointing back to TRAGEDY! A song in which every corner you turn, tragedy will strike!
This marvellous album is a must-have for every one. If you don't like the Bee Gees- apart from being crazy- I can guarantee that you will do after sampling it!
This is an outstanding album, if, as Barry puts it, 'you can stand all the falsetto!'

Format:Audio CD
In the difficult position of having to top "Saturday Night Fever", the Gibb brothers surpassed themselves and created their biggest hit studio album of their careers, including three more #1 hits, making six #1 hit songs in a row! "Tragedy", "Too Much Heaven" and "Love You Inside Out" were all top hit singles. "Spirits (Having Flown)" was a large hit single overseas. All songs are Barry dominated vocals and he is at his falsetto best. However, "Stop (Think Again)" is a tad long and a little bit tedious, but the following tracks go right back to their upbeat best! Succeeding in avoiding any dance songs (disco), the Bee Gees out-do themselves. These songs are truly funky "R & B" numbers, a solid match for any rythym and blues band. "Until", the closing solo track may not be equal to their earlier hit "Words", but Barry's voice accompanied by the electronic harpsichord makes for a delicious ending.

When I bought this album upon its release on vinyl I thought it somewhat poor value. Now, a quarter of a century later I have had to reconsider. The tracks which formed the first side of the LP are truly brilliant. The rest are little more than fillers.
That said, the album is still good vfm. The chance to hear the title track or Love You Inside or Out in remastered form is worth the purchase price alone. Anything else that takes your fancy is a bonus!

Classic album!
I never understand why artists place all of their singles on one side of an album. However good the album may be; the opposing side will always appear inevitably 'weaker' as a... Read more

A work to be re-evaluate
I think this work should be re-evaluated. Great class in the arrangements with some gems like the title-track "Spirit having flown" and "Living together".

'Spirits Having Flown' is quite probably the one Bee Gees album that divides listeners more than any other and it all comes down to whether or not one is appreciative of the Bee... Read more
