Bee Gees Live One Night Only Buenos Aires, Argentina 1998
updated
Inspiration and recording
It was written by Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb, and Maurice Gibb. In a 2001 Billboard magazine interview with the Bee Gees, Barry claimed that.
We had a housecleaner named Fanny when we stayed at 461 Ocean Blvd. [in North Miami Beach] during the making of Main Course. We were sitting in the lounge at Criteria [Studios] writing the song with the lyric idea, 'Be tender with my love'. Maurice turned round and saw Fanny and said, 'Wouldn't it be a better song if it was a woman's name in there, and you're asking her to be tender?.
Recording for "Fanny" took place on 30 January, the same day as "Jive Talkin'", "Songbird", and "All This Making Love". Additional recording took place in February when Barry Gibb began to use his falsetto as a lead vocal in addition to Robin using his falsetto as well sharing the lead on "Fanny" and on backing vocals. The result of this song repeats on the idea of contrasting slower section of "Nights on Broadway". The complexity of falsetto and natural harmonies would become a Bee Gees trademark culminating with 1979's Spirits Having Flown. The key of this song in the end, was from keyboardist Blue Weaver. Weaver was influenced by Hall & Oates' 1973 LP Abandoned Luncheonette as he later admits, "The key change in 'Fanny (Be Tender)' was a complete rip-off from Abandoned Luncheonette from 'She's Gone' [also produced by Mardin], I only had it on tape, and I didn't know that Arif produced it".

Esta fue la gira más ambiciosa en la que se embarcaron los Bee Gees, hubo mucha preparación para la gira, desde un extenso calendario de ensayos (en el que los Bee Gees se perdieron los premios musicales Billboard de ese año, donde ganaron la asombrosa cantidad de 11 premios), puesta en escena y efectos especiales, merchandising y seguridad estricta.
La gira consistió en un calendario de 41 fechas que comenzó en Fort Worth, Texas y terminó en su ciudad de Miami, Florida. Los 3 hermanos Gibb estaban vestidos de manera idéntica con pantalones de satén blanco increíblemente ajustados a la piel y deslumbrantes chaquetas blancas durante toda la gira.
Durante el Show de Houston el 30 de junio, un barbudo John Travolta se unió a los Bee Gees en el escenario durante "You Should Be Dancing" para repetir algunos de sus juegos de pies de Saturday Night Fever. Travolta estaba en Houston filmando la película Urban Cowboy.
Además de la aparición sorpresa de Travolta en el concierto de Houston, muchas celebridades asistieron a muchos de los conciertos. Entre los 60.000 fans de Los Ángeles' Los Dodgers Stadium fueron Cary Grant, Barbra Streisand, Rod Stewart, Olivia Newton-John, Karen Carpenter, Jack Nicholson y Harry Wayne Casey de KC & The Sunshine Band.
Antes de su concierto del 24 de septiembre en Landover, los Bee Gees fueron invitados a la Casa Blanca donde el presidente Carter los felicitó por sus esfuerzos con UNICEF.

"If I Can't Have You" is a disco song written by the Bee Gees in 1977. The song initially appeared on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack in a version by Yvonne Elliman, released in November 1977. The Bee Gees' own version appeared a month later as the B-side of "Stayin' Alive".
The song later appeared on the Bee Gees' compilation Their Greatest Hits: The Record. The remixed version was released and remastered in the compilation Bee Gees Greatest in 2007 and marked the return of the Bee Gees to the US Hot Dance Tracks charts after 28 years. According to Maurice, this track was the first song they did while they were recording the other songs for the film. The recording was started at Château d'Hérouville as a basic track only and completed later at Cherokee Studios in Los Angeles.

Steve Dahl, presentador de radio de una emisora de Chicago, fue despedido de su trabajo cuando la emisora decidió dejar de programar rock para dedicarse a la música disco.
El periodista entró a trabajar en una nueva emisora y desde ella se dedicó a criticar la música de baile y a encender las rivalidades entre los seguidores de una y otra música. Por otro lado, el equipo de beisbol de Chicago, los "White Sox", acostumbraba a organizar iniciativas de todo tipo para atraer a los seguidores al campo.
A Dahl se le ocurrió organizar la "Disco Demolition Night". Toda persona que la noche del 12 de julio de 1979 llevase un álbum de música disco al estadio de los White Sox pagaría únicamente 0,98 dólares por la entrada. Y durante el descanso se procedería a la quema de los discos.
Los organizadores esperaban a 20.000 seguidores, y aparecieron 50.000. La mayoría de los asistentes habían venido a ver la explosión en lugar del partido y corrieron al campo después de la detonación, con lo que el espectáculo acabó en motín.

Vota la voce è stato un concorso e festival musicale a cadenza annuale, ideato da Gigi Vesigna nel 1973 e prodotto per ventisette edizioni, fino al 2000, con esclusione del 1999, nel quale comunque furono assegnati i premi.
Votazione
Si trattava di una specie di referendum popolare degli anni settanta, anni ottanta e anni novanta, indetto annualmente dal settimanale TV Sorrisi e Canzoni, della quale Vesigna era direttore. Inviando apposite cartoline pubblicate dalla rivista, i lettori decretavano i cantanti vincitori delle rispettive categorie, a ciascuno dei quali veniva assegnato un Telegatto come trofeo. Fra le schede di votazione pervenute ne venivano estratte a sorte alcune, e i mittenti si aggiudicavano premi quali macchine fotografiche, cineprese, registratori, radio portatili, dischi: i premi finali erano una moto Gilera di 125 cm³ di cilindrata ed un'auto Alfa Romeo modello Alfasud. A partire dalla metà degli anni ottanta, la cerimonia che prevedeva la consegna dei premi andava in onda sulle reti Mediaset. Cantanti con più vittorie sono stati Claudio Baglioni e Vasco Rossi tra gli uomini con 5 vittorie, Loredana Bertè tra le donne con 5 vittorie, i Pooh nei gruppi con 11 vittorie e per gli artisti stranieri Miguel Bosè con 3 vittorie.(Wikipedia).

Background
On 12 September 1968, the Bee Gees flew to Brussels and spent two weeks recording a television show directed by Jean-Christophe Averty to promote their album Idea on French television. It features the guest appearances by Brian Auger and The Trinity, Julie Driscoll and Lil Lindfors. Swedish singer Lil Lindfors performed "Words" in her native language. The Bee Gees performed the songs from Horizontal and Idea (1968). The special effects on "Indian Gin and Whisky Dry" to make it appear that the Bee Gees are bouncing up and down in the glasses. On "I Started a Joke" features floating question marks.
During the Bee Gees' stay in Brussels, the Belgian police would not allow their limousine to stop outside the hotel, The Metropole, due to a fashion show held there by French pop star Johnny Hallyday's wife Sylvie Vartan. Maurice's leg was injured as he attempted to get out of the car, leading to a formal complaint being filed with a chief of police by the Bee Gees' manager Robert Stigwood.
