Now, I feel people look back and think it might have been too omnipresent, but at the time everybody wanted that sound on their records. Karl and Albhy have often said they were My guess is that the feminist theme of 'Woman in Love' probably informed them using Maynelli, McCall, and Matthews vs. his voice, although Barry could have easily modified and multi-tracked his to create whatever kind of chorus he wanted.

Has he ever explained that in any interviews? Has anyone else? On Barbra's "Woman in Love," the backup vocals were predominantly female. Was it the female-centered lyrics that prompted that decision? Or did Barbra put her foot down? It just seems odd that Barry Gibb the Record Producer always seems to end up being Barry Gibb the Backup Singers as well. .
