Absolute Radio: Discover real music

In 1993, the "Bee Gees Songbook" was compiled and released with twenty covers. This collection only has seventeen, but they are all exquisite covers from well known artists. The only strong song missing is "To Love Somebody". The following is the list until a regular one is implemented. Most of these songs are known to the readers, however, the Love Unlimited Orchestra really does a rousing rendition of "Night Fever", Daniel O'Donnell gives a strong flair to "Don't Forget To Remember" and Blockster's "You Should Be Dancing" does the Gibb Brothers justice. The only cut that one might skip is Tom Jones and Paul Anka. They sing off each other as if they really aren't interested in the song as much as they are in their collaboration. It sounds silly. If that is the only complaint one can find here, that's a really great sign that this collection is worth buying.
