Ageless Sound, May 23, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: This Is Where I Came in (Audio CD)
This is where I came in is a primo cd. I haven't listened to the Bee Gees in about 20 years. After catching A&E's One Night Only, I ordered this CD. This is one of the best CD's I own. It has quickly become one of my favorites. My kids like it too. The Bee Gees' music is ageless. Everyone remembers them and kids are experiencing quality music and song writing at a time when most groups are re-recording anything they can pay copyrights for. They are an amazing group and this CD is incredible. The Wedding Day song makes me want to get married all over again just to have it played at my wedding. It's a shame that the Bee Gees aren't more popular in the US market. The States are missing out on one of musics classic groups.

To Import or Not To Import, August 4, 2001
This review is from: This Is Where I Came in (Audio CD)
This is a first-rate Bee Gees' CD, full of energetic, feel-good music. Pop ballads are interspersed with some very catchy up-tempo tracks; the result is a well-crafted album that is, in my opinion, one of their best ever. This review is specifically directed towards the two bonus tracks included on the import version. Both are gorgeous songs and well worth having, particularly if you're a fan of Robin's vocals. "Promise the Earth" offers a top-notch performance by Robin of a beautifully-crafted song. It has the strongest euro-pop beat on the album. In short, it's high energy and it's phenomenal! "Just in Case" is a lovely ballad. For those who've seen the Keppel Road video, this is the work-in-progress that was showcased there. Robin sings the verse, and Barry is the dominant voice on the chorus. The song turned out to be far more beautiful than I could've imagined. These two tracks (together with "Embrace," "Deja Vu," "Sacred Trust" and "Wedding Day") are my favourites on a CD that is full of great songs. If you like what you hear on the sample tracks, you'll not be disappointed with this CD. Get it and you'll see why these three brothers are among the best songwriters and performers of the 20th century!
