Bee Gees
1st
2024 Endless Happiness

The group takes a psychedelic turn, adding lush orchestral arrangements to the group's tight harmonies and narrative lyrics. The album was recorded at the famed IBC Studios in London. Barry Gibb commented that their recording process was one of impromptu creativity, in which they'd "think up a subject, then write a song on the spot." The instrumental parts were added later, adding a fullness to the songs. For instance, Bee Gee's 1st opens with strains of oboe and harpsichord on the whimsical "Turn of the Century," while "Every Christian Lion Hearted Man Will Show You" begins with dark Gregorian chants.
