The group takes a psychedelic turn, adding lush orchestral arrangements to the group's tight harmonies and narrative lyrics. The album was recorded at the famed IBC Studios in London. Barry Gibb commented that their recording process was one of impromptu creativity, in which they'd "think up a subject, then write a song on the spot." The instrumental parts were added later, adding a fullness to the songs. For instance, Bee Gee's 1st opens with strains of oboe and harpsichord on the whimsical "Turn of the Century," while "Every Christian Lion Hearted Man Will Show You" begins with dark Gregorian chants.

The Bee Gees, live on air 1967-1968. The Brothers Gibb arrived in the UK in February 1967, virtually penniless. They promptly signed with Robert Stigwood and -- together with bandmates Vince Melouney and Colin Petersen -- soon became the hottest new property in pop, fueled by their own unique songs. They performed their first BBC session that April, with several following over the next year, broadcast on BBC radio. These are gathered here, together with background notes and images, offering a remarkable glimpse into one of the most legendary acts in pop history at its outset. Digitally remastered. 180 gram, orange color vinyl; includes insert; hand-numbered.
