To quote Alice Cooper "The Bee Gees are brilliant."

meh. when you hear their name mentioned night fever comes to mind along with that disco 'wiket' type of music.
but i was getting my hair done and my stylist was piping some music through his bose... one song caught my ears... closer than close.
lo and behold it was beegees. it was different than the disco wicket music they are known for.

Big fan at one time; they wrote and recorded timeless songs and sold millions of records so you can't beat that.

Do you like them ? Personally i have never been fan of there music. They suck, pretty much, in both incarnations - pre-disco and disco. NY Mining Disaster song notwithstanding.

I don't know much about them but I do know that Jive Talkin' is a damn groovy song.

Yes, very underrated group. They're very famous for a small subset of their output that got a lot of cultural backlash, which contributes to an image problem. People think of them as being pretty far from "cool" and the bulk of their material is simply not known.
The Beach Boys have had similar problems at times, but they get a lot more respect overall now. The Bee Gees are in a similar niche to the Beach Boys for a few reasons, including the contrast between the relative complexity, sophistication and range (over the course of a long career) of their music versus their image. That's not to say that their music sounds similar. There are other similarities.

I like their early incarnation as a baroque pop group and even enjoy their disco hits from time to time.
