Bee Gees-Number Ones Full Album Zip
Viva Allor
Number Ones is a compilation album by the Bee Gees released in 2004. It includes 18 of their greatest hits and a tribute to band member Maurice Gibb, who died in 2003. It is the final Bee Gees album released by Universal Records.
Rhino Records re-released Number Ones worldwide in 2008 using the European track list. Combining sales of versions issued by two different record companies, it has sold 1,236,000 copies in the US as of August 2012.[2] The set, which peaked at No. 23 in the US on the Billboard Top 200 albums chart in 2004, re-entered the charts peaking at No. 5 in 2012. The following week, after peaking at No. 5, the album plummeted to No. 195, the second-greatest drop for an album that still remained on the chart in Billboard album history.[3] This gives the group a span of 44 years, 9 months since their first Top 10 album, 1967's Bee Gees' 1st, which peaked at No. 7 in November 1967. The only other groups with longer spans are the Beach Boys (49 years 1 week), the Beatles (47 years 7 months), and the Rolling Stones (45 years 6 months).[4]
Two of the bonus tracks were new recordings of classic Gibb compositions originally recorded by other artists, including "Islands in the Stream" (Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton), and "Immortality" (Celine Dion).
NEW YORK, Oct. 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Columbia Records releases legendary Grammy award winning singer/songwriter/producer Barry Gibb's In The Now album today. The 12-track In The Now is Barry's first-ever album with the label. The surviving member of one of music's most successful and revered bands, the Bee Gees, (formed with his brothers Robin and Maurice), he has kept In The Now a family affair, writing all the songs with his sons Stephen and Ashley. In The Now is available for purchase on iTunes and Amazon and for streaming here.
Produced by Barry and co-producer John Merchant, In The Now is only the second solo effort of Gibb's career and his first album of all new material since the Bee Gees final studio album in 2001. The new album is an impassioned solo effort that signals a welcome return of one of the most identifiable and versatile voices in the history of rock, pop, and R&B. The entire album was recorded in Miami with the same gathering of accomplished musicians Barry assembled for his acclaimed 2014 solo tour. Among the songs included on In The Now (full track listing below) are the stirring title track, "Star Crossed Lovers," "Home Truth Song," "Cross To Bear," "Shadows," "Diamonds," and the album's inspired closer, "End Of The Rainbow."
Barry is supporting the epic album release with a series of rare TV appearances next week, including The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on October 12, The Today Show on NBC on October 13, and CBS This Morning's Saturday Sessions on October 15. A once-in-a-lifetime special listening party for In The Now with Barry attending, himself, will be held at New York City's Joe's Pub (declared one of the Ten Best clubs in America by Rolling Stone) on October 14, 5:30 pm EST.
With a career that spans more than five decades, Barry Gibb stands as one of the most prolific icons in music history. As a record producer/songwriter, Barry has been instrumental in creating milestones for other artists, as well, ranging from Barbra Streisand's 'Guilty' album to Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers country record 'Islands In The Stream' also, Diana Ross 'Eaten Alive featuring 'Chain Reaction' as well as Dionne Warwick's 'Heartbreaker' album.
Barry returned to live performing in 2013-2014 with the Mythology Tour, celebrating the Bee Gees anthology release of the same name as a tribute to his three brothers. The acclaimed tour included shows in Australia, New Zealand, England, Ireland, and The U.S., garnering an outpouring of affection and critical praise from around the world.
