Timeless: The All-Time Greatest Hits is released on 2LP vinyl on 26 October. All three brothers in the group were awarded CBEs in 2001. The Bee Gees have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Songwriters Hall of Fame, BMI Icons, the Vocal Group Hall of Fame and the Dance Music Hall of Fame.
The power ballad duet proved to be a big success, reaching number 5 in the UK and giving the group their most recent top 10 hit to date.
Their trophy cabinet also includes a BRIT Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music and a Legend Award from the World Music Awards. The Bee Gees wrote this song for Celine Dion 's 1997 album Let's Talk About Love, and also provided backing vocals.
The trio won five Grammy Awards as well as the Recording Academy’s Lifetime Achievement Award and Legend Award and five American Music Awards. In its original form, this double-LP compilation was a very generous repackaging of four years' worth of hits and notable album tracks, plus the Andy Gibb -authored ' (Our Love) Don't Throw It All Away.' It was a perfect distillation of the sound that had put the Bee Gees on top of the pop music world from 1975 onward. Although there are many other songs, these songs, I feel, are the songs that Maurice, Robin, and I would be most proud of.”ĭuring their active lifetime, the Bee Gees recorded 22 studio albums and racked up no fewer than 23 top ten hits on the Billboard Hot 100, including nine No. In his introduction for Timeless, Barry Gibb writes: “There is a spirituality about this album and these songs always meant the most to us.
