@sneakypete Yes, they were. As you said, they where not a "Disco Band." They already had a number of hits well before Disco.
All my friends that I was a nerd because I was listening to the bee gees before they hit it big.Songs like He ain't heavy, he's my brother and Just gotta get a message to you.They were all into rock.I was also into the Association, Gary Lewis and the playboys, Peppermint rainbow.🤣I Knew the Bee Gees were going to be Big one day!I guess I was a nerd but I got even!All those friends became disco freaks and loved the Bee Gees later!😂
Yes, most certainly, the Bee Gees were a Disco Band!
Number 6 of that old fart's quiz made me laugh.If you had a kid, would you make them work over the summer? And the choices of work were all reading and writing stuff.Ha! A real old fart would tell the kid "get out in that field and start haying!"
My tasks were mostly maintaining our yard and the exterior paint on the house. When I was in the 6th grade my dad took me over to my grandpa's and told me to cut the huge limb off the mulberry tree that crossed into the neighbor's yard. He had rented a chainsaw for me to use. Once I cut it, I had to go over the chainlink fence and cut that limb into pieces small enough to lift over the fence and carry to the street. I whacked and bundled the small limbs using a handmade machete, like a Condor Makara, but made from a saw blade. That was until that blade glanced off a limb and the blade tip cut thru my thumb. My task was almost done, but went to a neighbor to get a band ade, but she took me to the hospital for stitches. That doctor made me scrub all that tree sap off my hand before he stitched me up. That cut opened a week later when the baseball coach at school said for me to bat. One swing is all it took. I think some of those stitches didn't even go from one side of the cut to the other side.

Yes, indeed!
America was good.
Something very profound to that remark, isn’t there?
The BeeGees were great, because they had already made their oats in the 60's.
The other day I learned Warren Zevon wrote Werewolves of London about Barry Gibb. Seems the BeeGee's were touring in England And warren saw them and thought who's this hairy gent with the perfect hair!Other web sites offer a different explanation.
I miss that Excitable Boy! Taken from us way too soon.
Amen.
Such a distinct and beautiful voice!
