This Is Where I Came In is the twenty-second and final studio album by the Bee Gees. It was released on 2 April 2001 by Polydor in the UK and Universal in the US,less than two years before Maurice Gibb died from a cardiac arrest after surgery to repair a twisted intestine.
Size Isn't Everything is the twentieth studio album by the Bee Gees,released in the UK on 13 September 1993,and the US on 2 November of the same year. The brothers abandoned the contemporary dance feel of the previous album High Civilization and went for what they would describe as "A return to our sound before Saturday Night Fever".
"Jive Talkin'" is a song by the Bee Gees,released as a single in May 1975 by RSO Records. This was the lead single from the album Main Course. It hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and top-five on the UK Singles Chart in the middle of 1975. Largely recognised as the group's comeback song,it was their first US top-10 hit since "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart" (1971).
Still Waters is the twenty-first and penultimate studio album by the Bee Gees,released on 10 March 1997 in the UK by Polydor Records,and on 6 May the same year in the US by A&M Records. The group made the album with a variety of top producers,including Russ Titelman,David Foster,Hugh Padgham,and Arif Mardin.
Spirits Having Flown is the fifteenth album by the Bee Gees,released in 1979 by RSO Records. It was the group's first album after their collaboration on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack. The album's first three tracks were released as singles and all reached No. 1 in the US,giving the Bee Gees an unbroken run of six US chart-toppers in a one-year period and equaling a feat shared by Bing Crosby,Elvis Presley,and The Beatles. It was the first Bee Gees album to make the UK top 40 in ten years,as well as being their first and only UK No. 1 album. Spirits Having Flown also topped the charts in Australia,Canada,Germany,New Zealand,Sweden and the US. The album has sold more than 20 million copies worldwide.
"Love You Inside Out" is a 1979 single by the Bee Gees from their album,Spirits Having Flown. It was their last chart-topping single on the Billboard Hot 100,interrupting Donna Summer's "Hot Stuff",becoming the third single from the album to do so. In the UK,the single peaked at No. 13 for two weeks. It was the ninth and final number-one hit for the Bee Gees in the US,and the twelfth and final number-one hit in Canada as well. The trio would not return to the top 10 for ten years,with the song,"One".
Children of the World is the fourteenth studio album by the Bee Gees,released in 1976 by RSO Records. The first single,"You Should Be Dancing",went to No. 1 in the US and Canada,and was a top ten hit in numerous other territories. The album was re-issued on CD by Reprise Records and Rhino Records in 2006. This was the first record featuring the Gibb-Galuten-Richardson production team which would have many successful collaborations in the following years. Many consider this a "prologue" to the band's foray into disco,which would culminate with the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack the following year.

After the band's popularity had waned following the infamous Disco Demolition Night of 1979,the Gibb brothers had spent much of the early 1980s writing and producing songs for other artists,as well as pursuing solo projects,and E.S.P. was very much a comeback to prominence. The album sold well in Europe,reaching No. 5 in the UK,No. 2 in Norway and Austria,and No. 1 in Germany and Switzerland,though it failed to chart higher than No. 96 in the US. The album's first single,"You Win Again",reached No. 1 in the UK,Ireland,Switzerland,Germany,Austria and Norway.

The song marked the start of the group's comeback,becoming a No. 1 hit in many European countries,including topping the UK Singles Chart—their first to do so in over eight years—and making them the first group to score a UK No. 1 hit in each of three decades:the 1960s,1970s,and 1980s.
