I saw a track listing today that shows this new Rhino release of the Bee Gees double CD "Greatest Hits" will feature the long 12" Promo Only version of Stayin' Alive as a bonus track.

EXCELLENT! I cleaned up the vinyl on that one several months ago, but it will be nice to finally have it direct from the master tapes.

According to Rhino's official web site, the street date is currently Tuesday the 18th... After reading BillCahill's initial post last night, I immediately went over to Google, hoping to find the complete track listing myself, since it wasn't posted here. But entering "Greatest Hits", as given above, kept turning up only 2001's "Their Greatest Hits: The Record". But truth be told, it turns out the collection in question will actually be a re-issue of 1979's "Bee Gees Greatest", remastered and w/ bonus tracks... Oh, and here's that track list, for those who may also be interested: Jive Talkin' Night Fever Tragedy You Should Be Dancing Stayin' Alive How Deep Is Your Love Love So Right Too Much Heaven (Our Love) Don't Throw It All Away Fanny (Be Tender With My Love) Warm Ride Stayin' Alive (Promo 12” Version) If I Can't Have You You Stepped Into My Life Love Me More Than A Woman Rest Your Love On Me Nights On Broadway Spirits (Having Flown) Love YOu Inside Out Wind Of Change Children Of The World You Should Be Dancing (Jason Bentley/Philip Steir Remix) If I Can't Have You (Count Da Money Remix) Night Fever (NRG Remix) How Deep Is Your Love (Supreme Beings Of Leisure Remix) Stayin' Alive (Teddybears Remix) |

I picked up a copy of the Bee Gees remaster, and it's definitely better than the older version. I always found that the original slightly faded in the intros on some of the tracks. The new version corrects this problem and adds some nice bonus tracks.
For me, the highlight is having the promo 12" version of "Stayin' Alive." While this new-to-cd version sounds excellent from the master tape, it should be noted that it runs much slower than the promo 12" vinyl. The version on Greatest seems to run at the same speed as the LP version, while the vinyl version runs pitched up by about 2% when compared with the LP version. |
