I’ve been playing The Bee Gees like crazy for about a year. I removed most of their music from my Sansa Fuze+ MP3 player but still kept a handful of songs to enjoy.
The good people at Rhino put this 4CD collection together to commemorate the group’s 50th anniversary. With most Best-Of, Greatest Hits, Ultimate or Definitive sets, some songs can and will get omitted from the track listing. Such is the case with Bee Gees Mythology. The Bee Gees have countless cuts that could or should have been hits.
I will say that the omissions of World, Every Christian Lionhearted Man Will Show You and even One are glaring.
After multiple listens of Mythology, including now as I write this, I will not fault the creators too much because as the liner notes state, The Bee Gees themselves selected the songs.
This proves that individual tastes are unique and not everyone can be happy with a greatest hits package. Where the Bee Gees are concerned, there is more than enough to be happy with on one disc of their music let alone four.
