Have you always wanted to like the Bee Gees, but they were too gay for you?

I'd rather be a wealthy rockstar (e.g., members of Kiss) vs a poor virtuoso (e.g., Allan Holdsworth who's my favorite guitarist, FWIW).
Holdsworth's family had to start a go fund me to help cover his funeral expenses. SMH.
It sucks that entertainers and pro sports figures are financially rewarded more than artists, doctors, etc., but that's reality.

...given a choice, I'd rather have Kiss' money and Holdsworth's talent.

That's not the core of what I was getting at, though
Because of the way the record industry worked back in the day (it's probably even worse now) record sales have almost no correlation with musical talent
It's more a demonstration of how marketing worked in the past vs how it works now
If you wanna say Kiss or whoever are marketing geniuses? 100% agree. Musically? No.

No joke, I bought that on vinyl from a yard sale as a gag. Listened to it sometime later & couldn’t believe how much I enjoyed it.

I always thought Tragedy was cool and would make an awesome metal version. The minor key and feel hits pretty hard.
I got my first stinky finger to How Deep Is Your Love…ah memories.

I think the Sat. Night Fever album still holds up. I'm 54. If you're my age or older, think back to when that came out. There was no VH yet. The other biggest album of the era was Frampton Comes Alive. If you were a Kiss fan, their albums were pretty big, but not as big on the radio. All were very different, but the SNF songs are in regular rotation in my iTunes library and I never skip past them. There are no weak spots in any of their songs - writing, arranging, musicianship, KILLER singing and production. Yes, they were the whole package. All honor to the Gibbs.

I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again
