The Bee Gees "Odessa" (1969)
Wow, so double albums seemed to be fairly popular back in the day. I
wonder if it was because there was (I think) a 50 minute limit to how
much you could fit on an LP/record, so as soon as bands went over that they
just thought "well okay, let's do a double album!"
Apparently this album was released shortly before the band broke up for a while. It was an attempt at a concept album based around the story of
the loss of a fictional ship... I don't have much time for concept
albums, unless I like the music. I don't mind the Beegees, but to be
honest, aside from the odd melody that worked its way under my skin, this
one didn't really impress me that much.
