 (3 Customer Reviews)
The late-'70s was an interesting time to be a Bee Gee. The trio had experienced a rebirth as disco kings via SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER even though their music at the time was closer to the Spinners than to Donna Summer. By 1979, disco's popularity ... Full Descriptionhad begun to wane, but this didn't affect the Gibb's much, since they were primarily just R&B/pop artists to begin with. On SPIRITS, the Bee Gees blend their Aussie take on Philly Soul (the transcendent "Too Much Heaven," the suggestive "Love You Inside Out") with contemporary pop ("Tragedy") and that unique sound that is theirs alone (the serene, glowing title track). The brothers' trademark harmonies and irresistible pop hooks were in evidence throughout, making SPIRITS HAVING FLOWN essential for those enamored of mid-period Bee Gees or R&B-flavored '70s pop.

Spirits Having Flown Music Review Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars)   The Ultimate Bee Gees Album
Spirits is the Bee Gees most successful album Apart From The SNF soundtrack. The album features three gigantic no.1s, Too Much Heaven,Tragedy and Love You Inside Out. The title cut was also a sizeable hit. Hopefully a proper remastered version with bonus cuts will be released in the near future.

Best harmonies ever
The Spirits (Having Flown) album contains the best harmonies ever recorded by the Bee Gees.
In fact, the first half of the “Spirits (Having Flown)” album, including the songs “Tragedy”, “Too Much Heaven”, “Love You Inside Out”, ”Reaching Out” and “Spirits (Having Flown” is so unique that the second half suffers in comparison.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  Falsetto, Falsetto, Falsetto
Most love this. It sold millions and millions. Too much falsetto. I love the BEE GEES, and consider this one of their weaker albums. Geez, buy 1st, Horizontal, Mr.Natural, Main Course, Living Eyes. These far exceed the contents here. Robin vocals are the ultimate for me, but I'd take Cucumber Castle over this.

Spirits Having Flown album
 $14.44  
Dream Theater's tenth long-player is about as dense and challenging as any album in the band's discography and emphasizes not only the virtuoso members' stupefying musicianship, but also their most aggressive and thoroughly metallic songwriting tendencies. The sixteen-minute opener "A Nightmare to Remember" quickly establishes this agenda via frequently thrash-paced staccato riffing, some of John Petrucci's most blistering guitar solos ever, and the return of drummer Mike Portnoy's syncopated growls, which provide contrast for singer James ...
