are not the very best songs of the Beegees, i.e. this one, 'stayin alive', 'tragedy', 'night fever''jive talkin',
1/ simply better on every level measurable than all the obscurer-than-thine 'underground disco' classics that your Brit/Euro (disco)noisseurs and (discog)noscenti types drool over and cough up cash for?
2/ almost,nearly, as epic/superhuman/eerie specimens of out-of-body bodymusic as the Michael Jackson of "Rock With You/Don't Stop/Lovely One/Shake Your Body"?
Got zero interest in the Sixties Brothers Gibb of Odessa etc though
