"One evening in the early
"One evening in the early 70s, a trio named the Bee Gees took the stage to play to a hometown crowd It was supposed to be a fun show but it turned out to be a demoralizing indicator of where their career stood at that moment. The attendees were more interested in getting drunk, then listening There was no question about it…the Bee Gees were at a crossroads… With 3 straight albums that were commercial failures. They were in a bad place but the adversity made the bond between the brothers Barry Gibb. Maurice Gibb and Robin Gibb was stronger than ever. It’s the story of how one of the most successful acts of the Rock Era reinvented themselves when Barry found his falsetto and the #1 hit Jive talkin came from driving over a bridge and the sound the tires made on the road...

IT’S TIME FOR ANOTHER editions of our show breakthrough where we breakdown songs, albums or events that kicked open the door to an artist or band’s career. On previous episodes we have covered Do You Believe in Love by Huey Lewis and the News, Boys Don’t Cry by The Cure, and West End Girls by Pet Shop Boys. Today we’re doing a little something different… This band already had broken through but then began to fade into obscurity but then they had a second breakthrough that would make them one of the biggest groups ever.
It was a beautiful afternoon in August of 1970, when Robin Gibb went over to his brother Barry’s house to reunite after a falling out between the two caused an 18 month breakup of The Bee Gees.
It felt really good to get back together as brothers, and to rekindle their artistic collaboration. The elation they enjoyed during that pivotal visit led to the writing of an emotionally-charged ballad titled “How Can You Mend a Broken Heart.”
Robin & Barry phoned Maurice, Robin’s fraternal twin and the ever-congenial third member of the trio, and soon the Brothers Gibb went to a studio to create the song. Their first thought was to offer the tune to popular crooner, Andy Williams, but they decided to record it themselves, as the foundation to an album of new material. The following year, in August of ’71, Barry & Robin’s reconciliation piece “How Can You Mend a Broken Heart” went to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and the Adult Contemporary chart:
It was certainly an exciting time for The Bee Gees. They had the rush of having the #1 record in America, and a smash across the world, but when the euphoria faded... the band floundered, with no idea of where they were going next. Barry put their state of mind in perspective when he admitted that if The Bee Gees were not brothers, they would’ve broken up. It was their BROTHERHOOD that kept them going.
On the heels of the huge success of “How Can You Mend a Broken Heart,” the Bee Gees label at the time, Atlantic Records, begged for more of the same. So the guys, in an effort to give the label what they wanted, continued to write, what Barry called “dreary ballads.
