Album Notes & Community Reviews
Before defining the disco era, the Bee Gees crafted a sprawling, heavily orchestrated, and deeply ambitious double album of orchestral pop. 'Odessa' is incredibly lush and wonderfully warm, utilizing fiercely melodic, gorgeous choral vocal harmonies and sweeping baroque-pop arrangements to deliver profoundly introspective, beautifully bittersweet narratives.
