A Bee Gee

Just had to create a post on the Bee Gees after Robin Gibb died today.
I've two Bee Gees, no make that three, Bee Gees memorable anecdotes.
The first was going down the street from school with Janice and Eileen to buy the "Best of the Bee Gees" (on cassette) from Brashs, but since they didn't have it in stock, had to climb the hill to Myers. Hence we were back late and got gated for the rest of the year.
The second was watching the film Melody and listening to "First of May" and "To love somebody" in the graveyard scenes - beautiful. I still fondly remember the film for the music - the Bee Gees and then C.S.N&Y "Teach your children" at the finale.


The final was going with a group of Res students to see Saturday night fever at the Regent Cinema, with the Bee Gees rebirth in the disco era. But instead of the Bee Gees clip, here is the best version, the Goodies spoof.
