Has there been bootleg releases of A Kick In The Head?

I am trying to complete my Bee Gees collection. Has anyone ever made a CD of the Kick In The Head album, and be willing to sell it?

On another note, I think the album is great. I'm very surprised it got canned over Life In A Tin Can, which I think is far inferior. It has way more variety overall, and the entire album feels very unique to me. It touches on many styles. I feel like Elisa and Wouldn't I Be Someone are already better than entire Tin Can album. But Harry's Gate, Losers and Lovers, Castle In The Air are all great.

Also, is Dear Mr. Kissinger the only time The Bee Gees did anything overtly political? I wish they did more tracks like that. I love the High Civilization cut with speeches in-between

Bee Gees Elimination Game: Round 26

And So begins Week 26 of the Bee Gees Elimination Game. This includes all 22 of their Studio Albums, Their 3 Live Albums, The Soundtracks to Saturday Night Fever & Staying Alive, The 2 'Best Of' Albums and NOW, the Comp Albums that contain new tracks. I should add that the 2 'Idea' Albums are the US & the UK Presses.

This Challenge is weekly so you have a week to decide.

My vote goes to 'To Whom It May Concern’

Based on what is known about The Bee Gees do you think they would’ve booted Alan if Vince had decided he wanted to rejoin?

Do you think they’d consider since Vince was there at their mainstream inception that he’d earn the spot over Alan. Since they fired Alan abruptly during Living Eyes it leads me to guess they could’ve done it again, earlier as well. Though I wonder if they thought that Vince couldn’t match his contributions to their most successful period.

I know he left voluntarily and it seemed like they were all good terms. I’d be curious to hear how Vince would’ve added to their disco period. I do think he’s a much more creative player than Alan. His riff on the 3rd verse of Birdie Told Me is incredibly unique and creative. He always knew how to play just enough and not steal spotlight away from their voices. I like Alan but his contributions and phrases always seemed like pretty standard lead guitarist stuff that most people could come up with and play. I feel like his lines weren’t ever all that creative, not compared to Vince.

Reissues of albums

Hey guys, as a vinyl and cd enthusiast IVE always wondered why the bee gees discography is severely overlooked, I was wondering that in your opinions do you think that some day bee gees vinyls and CDs will be more widespread then just main course- spirits, that seem to be re issued on vinyl more, I know that they recently did a really spectacular re-release of how old are you but I’m sure you and I can agree that the bee gees need to be more widespread and have their discography fully appreciated. If you do believe that there could someday be re issues what albums would you like to see the most?

Closer Than Close - Live in Pretoria (South Africa) 1998

This is the best version imo. Maurice's voice is so good there.

Barry and Michael Jackson

I just learned that Michael Jackson's younger "son" whom he always referred to for some reason as Blanket is really named Bigi (pronounced Bee Gee, according to Google). I know that Michael and Barry were close friends in Miami for a while and that Michael was the godfather of Barry's son, also named Michael. Was Bigi named after Barry Gibb or the group itself, or am I reading too much into this? Does anyone know?
