The group was also music's most successful brother act. Barry Gibb, born on September 1, 1946, in Manchester, England, and his fraternal twin brothers Robin Gibb and Maurice Gibb, born on December 22, 1949, on the Isle of Man, were three of five children. The three of them gravitated toward music, encouraged by their father, who saw his sons at first as a diminutive version of the Mills Brothers. The three Gibb brothers made their earliest performances at local movie theaters in Manchester in 1955, singing between shows. The family moved to Australia in 1958, resettling in Brisbane. Now known as the Brothers Gibb with Barry writing songs they attracted the attention of a local DJ, and eventually got their own local television show. It was around this time that they took on the name the Bee Gees (for Brothers Gibb). The trio was astoundingly popular in the press and on television, but actual hit records eluded them. This is their second only album release and the first under the title of "Bee Gees” only. Excellent vocal laden Baroque, sunshine pop.
Tracks: Monday’s rain/ How many birds/ Play down/ Second hand people/ I don’t know why I bother with myself/ Big chance/ Spicks and specks/ Jingle jangle/ Tint of blue/ Where are you/ Born a man/ Glass house.
There are a few marks on labels as pictured not major. Record looks clean and plays well with only a few light surface marks and is in VG+ condition. Gloss cover with back flaps is fairly worn though in tact and in G- condition, there is a small tear at the top of the cover and some fading in the left corner.
