4.0 out of 5 stars The Last Studio Album, May 29, 2001

"After Dark" is Andy Gibb's last studio album and all the songs were written or co-written by brother Barry. Andy only contributed writing on two sings. No matter. All ten songs showcase his singing talents. The Gibb brothers all sing together on the top hit "Desire" and Andy handles a nice duet, "I Can't Help It", with old family friend, Olivia Newton-John. Rock/Funkiness shines through on songs, "Wherever You Are", "Warm Ride" and the title track. Most of the remaining songs are true Gibb tearjerkers, but "Dreamin' On" is a stand out and a great finale. Not a bad swan song at all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Andy third and final album of all-original recordings, January 24, 2005

In early 1980,Andy Gibb's third and final album of all-original recordings was released. Andy's contract with RSO records was nearing expiration and was never renewed. In November 1980,his final hit TIME IS TIME debuted on the radio,according to Norm N. Nite's Rock On Almanac. That song was either an outtake from this album or recorded after the release of this album. Around 1980,Andy was romantically involved with actress Victoria Principal,who was then a cast member of the CBS drama DALLAS. Hits from this album include:I CAN'T HELP IT,a duet with Olivia Newton-John(ONJ is courtesy of MCA Records) and DESIRE,with moral support from Andy's brother Barry. Also there's REST YOUR LOVE ON ME which was also recorded by the Bee Gees themselves and the late Conway Twitty. Sadly,Andy's career was slowly starting to falter. He had a cocaine and heroin addiction that would last until his death in 1988. As the eighties began,there was less mention of him in teen magazines than in 1977 to '79. All the other songs are good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Memories, March 25, 1999

I just received this CD in the mail and I listened to it immediately. When I was about 15 years old I owned this album and now in my 30's I bought it again and still remember the words to these songs. Great album, great guy. I just wish we could hear more from him than the 5 albums he left us with.
