Album Notes & Community Reviews

Arriving amidst the band's massive comeback success, the Gibb brothers' eighth international LP is a gorgeously melancholic triumph of baroque pop orchestration. The record is famously anchored by the devastatingly beautiful, chart-topping heartbreak ballad 'How Can You Mend a Broken Heart'. It perfectly showcases their immaculate vocal harmonies before their eventual pivot to disco dominance later in the decade.
