(Blank / single-sided record) MUSIC COLLECTOR NOTES ON THIS VINYL RECORD ALBUM / SINGLE:
- The Bee Gee's were a soft Rock group fronted by the Gibb brothers, Robin Gibb, Maurice Gibb and Barry Gibb and hailed from Australia.
With the help of Robert Stigwood and RSO Records the Bee Gees were thrust into the emerging Disco spotlight with songs such as "Jive Talkin'," "Night Fever" and "You Should Be Dancin'" for the Saturday Night Fever movie soundtrack of 1977.
Besides their own material, the Gibb brothers either as a group or individually, also wrote numerous songs for others such as "Ain't Nothing Gonna Keep Me From You" for Teri DeSario and "You Stepped Into My Life" for Melba Moore and later Wayne Newton .
Featured here is a rare single sided 12" Disco promo on RSO Records of "You Should Be Dancing," a really good Bee Gees song.
Didn't want to put the Bee Gees here in the Disco Records Vault, but I finally did. It's not that the Bee Gees are hated, It's simply that we've all overdosed on them and Disco got a bad rap primarily because of the Bee Gees. There are even some misguided souls who think this is all Disco ever was and neglect Disco's true roots and sounds. "Earth to misguided soul: The Bee Gee's did NOT invent Disco, they merely jumped on the bandwagon after it had been around for years."
Having said all that about the Bee Gee's, they are still required listening just tell those wann-be retro DJs to play other things besides the Bee Gees and the Village People and dig a little deeper into real Disco music for a change.

Reader Comments on Bee Gees
WOW, you blamed the BEE GEES for the demise of DISCO??? WRONG, the BEE GEES were DISCO'S good will ambassadors. They helped give DISCO credibility. They pour fuel on a fame and created a huge fire. That that fire eventually burned out, has nothing to do with the the guys who poured the fuel. OVER-SATURATION of a product on the American market will create a negative backlash from that same market. DISCO is a classic example of that fact. We gave them so much of it, so fast, in such quantity, that it made the AMERICAN MARKET SICK. They ate so much of DISCO, that it made them vomit and they got sick of it!! That is why the term DISCO is looked down upon like a virus! Today DISCO still exists, it is called DANCE MUSIC, TECHNO, HOUSE something along that line. I still refer to it as what it really is, DISCO!----- Now as for this song. In 1976 and 77 in New York/New Jersey, this song ruled! Number one song for like four-months. I personally remixed it twice a night for about twenty minutes each time. No-one left the floor, instead the Dance floor would over-flow. Number one PRIME TIME song in the mid-seventies. Fantastic percussions, vocals. I loved it. My favorite DISCO BEE GEE song, by far! On my scale from 1-10, easily, a very strong TEN!!!
