Was Bee Gees’ 1978 an All-Time Great Year?: Greatest Pop Stars Podcast
It’s difficult to talk about the Bee Gees without acknowledging their extraordinary success in 1977, but it’s undeniable that 1978 was a year of immense greatness for this legendary trio. At the peak of their fame and artistic influence, the brothers – Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb, and Maurice Gibb – had become unstoppable.
With the release of Saturday Night Fever in late ’77, the Bee Gees’ trajectory shifted dramatically. They would go on to spend the next year reigning supreme at the top of the charts with an unprecedented string of 17 consecutive No. 1 hits, a feat that has yet to be matched by any other artist.
