Spirits Having Flown   by Bee Gees

As strange as it may seem, in 1979 the Bee Gees released the fifteenth album of their career, Spirits Having Flown. Disco music was at its peak that year, and the Bee Gees were certainly one of the major protagonists of this musical trend.

Spirits Having Flown contains two of the most characteristic songs of the Bee Gees, Tragedy and Too Much Heaven, which open the album. A major successful tour in the United States of America followed to promote Spirits Having Flown.

Spirits Having Flown was the last album by the Bee Gees to achieve immense success in the U.S., as well as in the rest of the world. It reached No. 1 on the Billboard chart, the United Kingdom, and many other countries. The album's total global sales have reached 20,000,000 copies.
