'Where' They've Been
"We're not a pop group that falls out of fashion and comes back a gain --
we're a songwriting team," says the Bee Gees' Barry Gibb of the brotherly
group's new album, "This Is Where I Came In" (Polydor), which debuted
at No. 4 on the Eurochart Top 100 Albums survey earlier this month. The group
remains one of the most enduring in popular music, having placed 43 singles
(including nine No. 1s) and 28 albums on the Billboard charts over the past four
decades.
The new album speaks to every strength the Bee Gees have: love songs, danceable
cuts, narrative classics, folk-ro ck ballads, and rock-pop anthems. "This
album for us is variety," Barry Gibb says." "We just thought,
'How many different kinds of songs can we do?' And then we gave each other the
space to go away individually and come up with things ourselves -- which w e
used to do without any feelings of malice. So we did four songs together, and
three or four each, and chose from them. It's our definitive
album of our collaborations and their diversity."
