My first impression was that it sounds like something off "Robin's Reign!"

As a Bee Gees fan, let me tell you why it sucks. There are no Bee Gees albums that you can download at iTunes other than about 8 songs. Usually when you download an album from your computer (within the last eight years) they are imprinted with the album photo cover and the album song details. Not so with Bee Gees albums - right up to "This Is Where I Came In". SHAME!!! If you go to iTunes, you will read rants from dozens of Bee Gees fans DEMANDING Bee Gees music. Its a trip. I also learned that when you download a GOLD disc, it take about 8 times longer to download, I think because of the compression for better quality sound (anyone know about this?) As far as the Studio Albums - I can't wait! Marty From SF P.S. Please do not download any sing-a-longs of "Jumbo" to the words mailing list. My week has been rough. :) ------=_NextPart_000_0005_01C6E0DA.810EF010-- ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 25 Sep 2006 22:42:25 EDT From: Compoccias@aol.com Subject: Re: Bootlegs - that Horrible topic!

While I'm sure they made contributions, it was always the brothers running the show. Vince seemed to have an influence on "Horizontal", but it was limited. Having said that, they should have photos of them in the boxset and I'm sure they will.
