Does anyone remember "Odessa" by the Bee Gees?
This was a 2-record set released in 1969. It had a fuzzy red cover! I absolutely love it and still listen from time to time. Now they have come out with a 3-CD Expanded Edition that looks interesting.

Does anyone else remember this album?

1. I sure do!
I was in middle school when Saturday Night Fever came out; a friend of mine was insane over the Bee Gees. Well, I wasn't that thrilled with the SNF soundtrack, but because of her I learned more about the Bee Gees and came to like them...when I picked up their LPs from the '60s and early '70s. I especially liked Odessa, 2 Years On, and Main Course.

And I still love "Run to Me" from To Whom It May Concern.

4. 2 Years On! I forgot about that one.
I remember liking that album too. Their first album was also great, as was "World". This was all before their disco/falsetto phase.

2. Yep. I was a big BeeGees freak in the late 70s (junior high school)
Couldn't get enough of Barry's feathery hair and gold chains. Lol.

But, I did like their older work before they went to the super-high falsettos.
