Bienvenidos a La Diez Capital Radio! Están a punto de comenzar un nuevo episodio de nuestro Programa de Actualidad, donde la información, la formación y el entretenimiento se encuentran para ofrecerles lo mejor de las noticias y temas relevantes. Este programa, dirigido y presentado por Miguel Ángel González Suárez, es su ventana directa a los acontecimientos más importantes, así como a las historias que capturan la esencia de nuestro tiempo. A través de un enfoque dinámico y cercano, Miguel Ángel conecta con ustedes para proporcionar una experiencia informativa y envolvente. - Miguel Ángel González Suárez te presenta el Informativo de Primera Hora en 'El Remate', el programa matinal de La Diez Capital Radio que arranca tu día con: Las noticias más relevantes de Canarias, España y el mundo, analizadas con rigor y claridad. Hoy se cumplen 1.296 días del cruel ataque e invasión de Rusia a Ucrania. 3 años y 189 días. Hoy es lunes 1 de septiembre de 2025. Día Mundial de los Primates. Cada 1 de septiembre se celebra el Día Internacional de los Primates, con la finalidad de destacar la importancia de conservar estas especies mamíferas, así como alertar sobre las amenazas de extinción de algunas de ellas. Entre las principales amenazas se encuentran la deforestación de su hábitat, factores ambientales, enfermedades virales, caza ilegal, explotación con fines comerciales y de entretenimiento. 1914: la ciudad rusa de San Petersburgo cambia de nombre a Petrogrado. 1917: el Imperio ruso es abolido y convertido en una república. 1918: En Fort Riley (estado de Kansas) comienza la pandemia de influenza (gripe española), que causó cerca de 20 millones de muertes en el mundo. Tal día como hoy, 1 de septiembre de 1939, las tropas alemanas invaden Polonia enviando 1,5 millones de tropas al mismo tiempo que la Luftwaffe alemana bombardea los aeródromos polacos. El ataque se produjo sin ninguna declaración de guerra por parte de Alemania. Gran Bretaña y Francia enviaron a Hitler un ultimátum para retirar las fuerzas alemanas de Polonia o enfrentar a las dos naciones en guerra y dos días después, Gran Bretaña y Francia declararon la guerra a Alemania. 1958: En Nueva York (Estados Unidos) comienza sus funciones la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS). 1962: la Organización de las Naciones Unidas anuncia que la población mundial ha alcanzado los 3000 millones de habitantes. 1985: una expedición franco-estadounidense descubre los restos del buque británico Titanic, hundidos en el océano Atlántico desde 1912. El 1 de septiembre de 1989, Toyota lanza nuevos autos de lujo como una nueva marca: el Lexus, con la esperanza de competir con otros importantes fabricantes de autos de lujo en todo el mundo. 2015.- El papa Francisco concede que se absuelva el pecado del aborto durante el Jubileo. Santos Arturo, Sixto, Régulo y Gil. La Flotilla Global Sumud parte desde Barcelona hacia Gaza para establecer un corredor humanitario. Rusia lanza su tercer ataque a gran escala contra Ucrania esta semana, alcanzando Odesa y Jersón. Putin llega a China para una cumbre clave de seguridad regional. Albares pide a la UE una respuesta fuerte sobre Gaza porque "no hacer nada no ha resuelto nada". Feijóo asegura que el Gobierno "huele a rancio" y se compromete a sacar a España "del bucle de la incompetencia". Canadá ha decidido excluir al submarino español S-80 de Navantia en su proceso de renovación de flota, valorado en aproximadamente 43.440 millones de euros. En su lugar, ha seleccionado a las empresas alemanas ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) y coreanas Hanwha Ocean Co. para presentar ofertas definitivas para el Proyecto Canadiense de Patrulleros Submarinos (CPSP), con la intención de operar el primer submarino en 2035. Canarias recibe más de 4 millones de turistas invisibles: el verdadero total supera los 22 millones anuales, no como nos indican de 18 millones en 2024. Los empresarios canarios habían puesto sobre la mesa solo 160 millones y Baleària se impone y adquiere por 215 millones el negocio de Armas en Canarias. El ‘sueño’ de varios empresarios canarios y del propio Ejecutivo regional de convertir a Naviera Armas en la “Binter del mar” se desvanece. El grupo Baleària, presidido por Adolfo Utor de origen marroquí, se queda finalmente con el negocio canario de la naviera, tras cerrar una operación valorada en 215 millones de euros, libre de deudas. La compra incluye también las rutas de Alborán y El Estrecho, compartidas con la compañía danesa DFDS, aunque la operación está sujeta al visto bueno de la Comisión Nacional de los Mercados y la Competencia (CNMC). Unos 20 menores migrantes viajan a la Península en el sexto traslado desde Canarias. En total han salido 32 (a los que habría que sumar los 20 de este domingo) Solo 52 de más de 1.000 asiliados. El milagro de las uvas canarias: siglos de historia sin filoxera, nunca existio en Canarias, pues ya la tenemos aqui. Socimi vende el Hotel Bahía del Duque a Lopesan, La operación rondaría los 320 millones de euros, la socimi hotelera participada por Bankinter, ha cerrado la venta del Hotel Bahía del Duque, uno de los establecimientos más emblemáticos de Canarias, al grupo Lopesan. Vuelo directo de Tenerife a Nueva York… desaparece. Este ajuste responde a razones comerciales, no a los aranceles de Trump como indican algunos políticos en Canarias. Los aranceles afectan más al comercio de mercancías que al turismo aéreo, y su impacto directo en Canarias es muy limitado. 1 de septiembre de 1942 nació Barry Gibb (de los Bee Gees) → influyente en el pop y disco. - ¿Cansado de la actualidad políticamente correcta?

Our summer tradition at Here’s the Thing continues, as staff members choose their favorite conversations from the archives for our Summer Staff Pick series. This week, we revisit Alec’s conversation with Barry Gibb, the last surviving member of the legendary Bee Gees. Barry reflects on the group’s rise from childhood dreams of stardom to becoming one of the best-selling music acts of all time. He speaks with Alec about the brothers’ signature “blood harmony,” their songwriting legacy, and navigating the highs and lows of fame and family. Barry also shares how he continues to honor the Bee Gees’ music—most recently through the HBO documentary How Can You Mend a Broken Heart and his Nashville-inspired album Greenfields: The Gibb Brothers Songbook (Vol. 1).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Stephen Gibb – “Kill the Robot” Ignites with New Single as Rock Veteran Steps into the SpotlightStephen Gibb, the name that might first catch your ear as the son of Bee Gees legend Barry Gibb, has long carved out his own raw, relentless path in the world of heavy music. Now, he's stepping further into his own spotlight with the new single from his band Kill the Robot, delivering a blend of molten riffs, industrial aggression, and haunting lyrical intensity that refuses to be ignored.A Career Forged in Metal and GritStephen's career spans decades of evolution and hard-hitting contributions to the metal and rock world. Cutting his teeth in the Miami music scene, he played in various local bands before making a global mark with acts like Saigon Kick and the doom-laden outfit Crowbar, where he laid down guitar work that fused melody with muscle.He's perhaps most well known for his time with Black Label Society, playing alongside Zakk Wylde and touring extensively as part of the band's fearsome live presence. His tone was unmistakable—thick, swampy, and emotionally charged, equally capable of violence and vulnerability.Later, Stephen took a significant role in Kingdom of Sorrow, the side project of Jamey Jasta (Hatebreed) and Kirk Windstein (Crowbar), again contributing razor-sharp guitars and deep, introspective songwriting.Kill the Robot – A New ChapterWith Kill the Robot, Stephen is no longer just the hired gun—he's front and center, commanding a project that reflects his own vision. Their latest single [insert title here if known] is a slab of dark modern metal with electronic edges, blending industrial influences with classic metal guitar tone and apocalyptic vocals. It's a sonic punch that feels equal parts Nine Inch Nails, Pantera, and something uniquely Gibb.This isn't music for background noise—it's a sonic purge, a wake-up call in a world numb with repetition.Legacy Meets FutureDespite his musical pedigree, Stephen Gibb has always done it the hard way—earning his place through relentless touring, collaboration, and dedication to craft. “Kill the Robot” isn't just a new band—it's a declaration: that experience, struggle, and passion still matter in a music industry dominated by trends.Listen, Watch, and Follow Kill the Robot:

Vielleicht wäre die Geschichte unseres heutigen Gastes selbst mal Stoff für eine mehrteilige Serie und vielleicht würde sie sogar Regie führen, das nämlich steht nach eigenem Bekunden noch an im Leben von Alexandra Maria Lara, die 1978 in Bukarest geboren wurde - als Kind einer im kommunistischen Rumänien unter Ceausescu durchaus privilegiert lebenden Familie, aber was hilft es, wenn die Freiheit fehlt? Die Eltern fliehen mit der damals 4jährigen Alexandra, nach Kanada soll's gehen, in West-Berlin schließlich findet die Familie eine neue Heimat. Früh steht das Mädchen vor der Kamera, mit knapp 16 als Hauptfigur in der ZDF-Serie "Mensch, Pia!". Dann aber doch noch Abitur, Schauspielausbildung, erste kleine, bald schon große Rollen in großen Filmen und Serien. Und das geht bis heute so, auf nationaler und internationaler Ebene. "Der Tunnel", "Nackt", "Der Untergang", "Control", "Rush", "25km/h", "Der Fall Collini", um nur einige zu nennen. Zudem war Alexandra Maria Lara Präsidentin der Deutschen Filmakademie. Und wir sind gespannt auf die Musik und Geschichten ihres Lebens. Playlist: Barbra Streisand & Barry Gibb – Guilty Paul Simon - You Can Call Me Al Womack & Womack – Teardrops A Tribe called Quest ft.

In 1984, Barry Gibb released his first studio album, 'Now Voyager'. This was accompanied by a film consisting of music videos from the album tracks, all strung together by an abstract and dream-induced narrative. Failing to make a large commercial impact, and possibly curtailing the multi-album deal which Barry had signed, the album and film have become a curio of the time, often overlooked or disregarded like so many Gibb projects of the period. Stuart and Cristiano discuss the story behind the project and its ambitious origins, as well as the songs on side one, and the film and its storyline. It's a mystery that is the universe, ten times the speed of sound. It's Now Voyager. Find us on social medias @wordsbeegeespodcast. Email us: wordsbeegeespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

CNN, HBO MaxLegendary US singer Dionne Warwick 2025 Inductee Class in the Rock & Roll Hall of FameThe news came shortly after the 82-year-old star became one of the latest recipients of a Kennedy Center Honor, alongside comedian Billy Crystal and actor Queen Latifah.The Don't Make Me Over tour will begin its UK leg at Gateshead's The Glasshouse on Sunday 5 May, 2024, with tickets going on sale via Ticketmaster. In 2023, we saw the debut of her Documentary that aired on CNN New Year's Day featuring Legendary Music Icons like the late Burt Bachrach, Jerry Blavat, Chuck Jackson, as well as Berry Gordy, Quincy Jones, & Smokey Robinson. She began singing professionally in 1961 after being discovered by a young songwriting team, Burt Bacharach and Hal David. She had her first hit in 1962 with “Don't Make Me Over.” Less than a decade later, she had released more than 18 consecutive Top 100 singles, including her classic Bacharach/David recordings, “Walk on By,” “Anyone Who Had a Heart,” “Message to Michael,” "Promises Promises,” “A House is Not a Home,” “Alfie,” “Say a Little Prayer,” “This Girl's in Love With You,” “I'll Never Fall in Love Again,” “Reach Out For Me,” and the theme from “Valley of the Dolls. ”Together, Warwick and her songwriting team of Burt Bacharach & Hal David, accumulated more than 30 hit singles, and close to 20 best-selling albums, during their first decade together.Warwick received her first GRAMMY® Award in 1968 for her mega-hit, “Do You Know the Way to San Jose?” and a second GRAMMY® in 1970 for the best-selling album, “I'll Never Fall in Love Again.” She became the first African-American solo female artist of her generation to win the prestigious award for Best Contemporary Female Vocalist Performance. This award was only presented to one other legend, Miss Ella Fitzgerald.In 1970, Warwick received her second GRAMMY® Award for the best-selling album, “I'll Never Fall In Love Again,” and began her second decade of hits with Warner Bros. Records. In 1974, she hit the top of the charts with “Then Came You,” a million-selling duet with The Spinners. She then teamed up with Isaac Hayes for a highly successful world tour, “A Man and a Woman.”In 1976, Warwick signed with Arista Records, beginning a third decade of hit-making. Arista Records label-mate Barry Manilow produced her first Platinum-selling album, “Dionne,” which included back-to-back hits “I'll Never Love This Way Again,” and “Déjà vu.” Both recordings earned GRAMMY® Awards, making Warwick the first female artist to win the Best Female Pop and Best Female R&B Performance Awards.Warwick's 1982 album, “Heartbreaker,” co-produced by Barry Gibb and the Bee Gees, became an international chart-topper. In 1985, she reunited with composer Burt Bacharach and longtime friends Gladys Knight, Elton John and Stevie Wonder to record the landmark song “That's What Friends Are For,” which became a number one hit record around the world and the first recording dedicated to raising awareness and major funds (over $3 Million) for the AIDS © 2025 Building Abundant Success!!2025 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASAmazon ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy: https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

Pat Arnold has had quite a life. Born in 1946 she grew up in LA, and was in an abusive marriage with two kids while still a teenager. In 1965 she got a chance to audition for Ike and Tina Turner's band as an “Ikette”. She got the gig and left her children in the care of her parents. This eventually took her to London where she fell into the orbit of The Rolling Stones, and she decided to stay behind there to establish herself as a solo artist, signing to Stones' manager Andrew Loog Oldham's label Immediate Records, home of the Small Faces, members of whom ended up writing songs for her and backing her on some of her recordings. She also toured with them, and is the backing vocalist on Itchycoo Park and Tin Soldier, two of their biggest hits. She had hits under her own name too, including her recordings of Angel Of The Morning and The First Cut Is The Deepest. She also recorded with Rod Stewart. In the 70s she appeared on recordings by the likes of Nick Drake, Graham Nash, and Nils Lofgren. She toured with Eric Clapton and recorded with Barry Gibb although most of these recordings remained unreleased for decades. She sadly lost a daughter in a car accident in the mid-70s, and along with not being able to further her career as a solo artist, she seems to view this as somewhat of a lost decade. As well as being cast in Starlight Express, the 80s saw her work with Steel Pulse, The Beatmasters and Roger Waters, as well appearing on Peter Gabriel's smash hit Sledgehammer. She first came into my orbit in the late 90s through her collaboration with Ocean Colour Scene, and the early 2000s saw her tour extensively with Roger Waters. In recent years she finally completed the album she started with Barry Gibb and Eric Clapton decades earlier, as well as a brand new studio album recorded and produced by former podcast guest Steve Craddock of Ocean Colour Scene and Paul Weller fame. She has a new career spanning box set entitled “Soul Survivor - A Life In Song” and I had a fantastic time talking to Pat about her life and career. Instagram: @sendingsignalspodcast

Youngmi Mayer says she hates doing research but, in our conversation and in her new memoir I'm Laughing Because I'm Crying, she does a lot of digging into the events of her life and what they all meant. Youngmi grew up in Saipan and Korea, the daughter of a Korean mother and a White American father, and had to deal with discrimination, harassment, and abuse. Later on, she moved to America with $700 in her pocket and no real plan in order to escape an abusive relationship and had to find a path that included a place of prominence in the restaurant scene, a life of comedy, and a severe depression disorder.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

Barbra Streisand ist Schauspielerin und Sängerin und sowohl mit der Musik als auch der Schauspielerei unglaublich erfolgreich. "Guilty" war Barbra Streisands erfolgreichste Platte überhaupt. Und mit auf dem Album war auch ihr größter Hit "Woman In Love", spannend ist, dass das Album eigentlich vielleicht nicht so ganz typisch für die Sängerin und Schauspielerin war. Eigentlich, so erklärt unser ehemaliger Kollege Christian Pfarr im Podcast, kommt Barbra Streisand ja aus der Musicalecke, wo sie schon in den 60ern sehr erfolgreich gewesen ist. In den 70ern hat sie dann einen musikalischen Ausflug in die Discomusik gemacht und hier auf dem Album "Guilty" hat sie sich mit Barry Gibb von den Bee Gees dann noch einen echten Disco-King und sehr gefragten Songwriter aus der Zeit zu der Arbeit an ihrem Album dazugeholt. Der größte Hit ihrer Karriere und des Albums war der Song "Woman In Love". Christian Pfarr erklärt sich den großen Erfolg des Songs "Woman In Love" so: "Man hat nicht das Gefühl, sie schlüpft hier in eine Rolle, sondern das ist sie". Ihre Stimme und das intensive Vibrato gehen hier perfekt ineinander, ohne aber dabei übertrieben zu wirken, das macht den Song aus. Sie legt sich mit ihrer ganzen Stimmgewalt in diese in Moll-gehaltenen Melodien und das wirkt intensiv und einfach sehr echt. Außerdem hat Barbra Streisand in dem Song einen Rekord aufgestellt, nämlich den Ton in einem Popsong, der am längsten gehalten wurde. Zwölf Jahre lang wurde der Rekord nicht gebrochen. Wer Barbra Streisand dann schlussendlich doch noch übertroffen hat, das verraten wir euch im Meilensteine Podcast. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Guilty" wird im Podcast gesprochen (03:04) – "Guilty"(12:40) – "What Kind Of Fool"(17:04) – "Woman In Love"(24:52) – "Promises"(29:36) – "The Love Inside" __________ Über diese Songs wird außerdem im Podcast gesprochen: (04:48) – "Enough Is Enough" von Barbra Streisand und Donna Summer(07:42) – "Nightfever" von den Bee Gees(20:47) – "I Will Always Love You" von Whitney Houston(23:20) – "You Don't Bring Me Flowers" von Barbra Streisand und Neil Diamond__________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge "Guilty" findet ihr hier: https://www.swr.de/swr1/rp/meilensteine/barbra-streisand-guilty-102.html __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

This week's show, after a 1968 Dave Davies dip: The Descendents, Dummy, Healees, Linda Lindas, Rifles, Brief Candles, and Royal Headache, plus Pete Ham, Fats Domino, Kaleidoscope, Hank Williams Sr., Paul McCartney, 1970 Barry Gibb, and Adelyne Hood & V...
Kansas was at the height of their prowess and popularity as a prog rock-leaning band in 1978 when they released their first live album, Two for the Show. Recorded during tours in 1977 and 1978, the double album gives the listener a glimpse into the energy of the band at the time. The songs span the first five studio albums released by the group, from the eponymously named "Kansas" to the highly successful "Point of Know Return."Kansas would have a number of personnel changes over time, but this lineup would be the classic one. Steve Walsh is on keyboards and vocals, Robby Steinhardt is on violins and vocals, Kerry Livgren is on guitars and keyboards, Rich Williams is on guitars, Dave Hope is on bass, and Phil Ehart is on percussion.In addition to the complex metered songs and excellent harmonies, Kansas also features Robby Steinhardt on violin in most of their songs. The unusual use of violin in a rock band would create one of the signature sounds of Kansas. Kansas would go on to have a number of hits in the 80's. In 1982 front man Steve Walsh would leave the group and be replaced by John Elfante. In 1983 both Livgren and Hope would leave the group to form the contemporary Christian band called AD. Later Elfante would also leave the group to join the Contemporary Christian music genre, replaced by a returning Steve Walsh.Bruce presents this live prog rock masterpiece for this week's podcast.. Song for AmericaThis long-form masterpiece from the album of the same name was written by Kerry Livgren. Its 3+ minute instrumental prelude did not make it onto the single release, but was a staple of FM rock stations at the time. Livgren was inspired to write the song after viewing the country from a plane flight.Dust In the WindThe big hit from "Point of Know Return," went to number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100. Livgren originally wrote the music as a guitar exercise, and his wife encouraged him to develop it into a song. The lyrics for this ballad come from the Bible, where the Preacher from Ecclesiastes says "everything he (man) has accomplished is futile - like chasing the wind." This live version concludes with an acoustic guitar outro performed by Rich Williams.Lonely WindThe live version of this song from their debut studio album begins with a piano solo from Kerry Livgren. Steve Walsh penned this melancholy track about loneliness, with the wind personifying that feeling. "Cry for me, sigh for me, sad breezes blow. Stay for me, play for me, the song my friends will know. My lonely wind must blow." ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Grease by Frankie Valli (from the motion picture "Grease")John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John star in this blockbuster musical set in a 50's high school. 50's icon Frankie Valli performs the title song, written by Barry Gibb. STAFF PICKS:Strange Way by FirefallWayne goes more mellow than normal to start the staff picks. This was the first track and big hit from the third album by Boulder, Colorado's Firefall. It talks about a relationship based on relaying sorrow or self-pity, and not being able to move the current relationship forward. Straight On by HeartRob brings us a well-known song from Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart. This was the first single off their album "Dog & Butterfly," and became their third top 20 single, hitting number 15 on the Billboard Hot 100. The lyrics compare love to a game of chance, where you have to take some risks if you want to win.Fat Bottomed Girls by Queen"Get on your bikes and ride!" Lynch features a hit written by Brian May with Freddie Mercury in mind, knowing that Mercury appreciated women of "substantial girth." It was a part of a double A side release with "Bicycle Race," and the songs reference each other in the lyrics. How Much I Feel by AmbrosiaBruce's staff pick is a soft rock hit that went to number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100. Front man and co-founder David Pack wrote this song about a long-lost love that the singer will never truly get over. Pack would go on to perform on the Kansas album "Vinyl Confessions" in 1982. NOVELTY TRACK:Y.M.C.A. by the Village People All skate, everyone skate for this fun throwback that tells a young man where he can go when he's short on the dough.

Deep into the pandemic, drummer AC Paterra and his musical partner in Zombi, bassist-keyboardist Steve Moore also went deep; deep into the sounds and songs that created who they have become today as a pillar of Relapse Records, a label often associated with noisy artists. However the songs that moved AC and Steve over these covid days were the yachti-rock based sounds of Gerry Rafferty, Paul Davis, Steely Dan and Barry Gibb. So faithful were these renditions that many assumed they were singing over the original tracks. This attention to detail doesn't escape their own original music they make as Zombi, a band releasing it's 7th album, Direct Inject, again on Relapse in late March '22. Sure, their band reflects the sounds of the 90's Pittsburgh heros such as Trans AM and a dash of Don Caballero, (to wit Phil Manley of TA guests on Direct Inject) but it would be short-sighted to assume this band is a cookie cutout of those giants. AC goes out of his way to avoid math in his deep grooves. In fact, Zombi continues to expand their sound and even include a touch of the yacht into their songs with Steve Moore's sax. AC is also busy as keyboardist for Grails and tours with them as well. He is living his best life as a full time musician who also happens to be making the best music of his life.
CNN, HBO MaxLegendary US singer Dionne Warwick has announced she will perform at eight special shows in the UK.The news came shortly after the 82-year-old star became one of the latest recipients of a Kennedy Center Honor, alongside comedian Billy Crystal and actor Queen Latifah.The Don't Make Me Over tour will begin its UK leg at Gateshead's The Glasshouse on Sunday 5 May, 2024, with tickets going on sale via Ticketmaster. In 2023, we saw the debut of her Documentary that aired on CNN New Year's Day featuring Legendary Music Icons like the late Burt Bachrach, Jerry Blavat, Chuck Jackson, as well as Berry Gordy, Quincy Jones, & Smokey Robinson. She began singing professionally in 1961 after being discovered by a young songwriting team, Burt Bacharach and Hal David. She had her first hit in 1962 with “Don't Make Me Over.” Less than a decade later, she had released more than 18 consecutive Top 100 singles, including her classic Bacharach/David recordings, “Walk on By,” “Anyone Who Had a Heart,” “Message to Michael,” "Promises Promises,” “A House is Not a Home,” “Alfie,” “Say a Little Prayer,” “This Girl's in Love With You,” “I'll Never Fall in Love Again,” “Reach Out For Me,” and the theme from “Valley of the Dolls. ”Together, Warwick and her songwriting team of Burt Bacharach & Hal David, accumulated more than 30 hit singles, and close to 20 best-selling albums, during their first decade together.Warwick received her first GRAMMY® Award in 1968 for her mega-hit, “Do You Know the Way to San Jose?” and a second GRAMMY® in 1970 for the best-selling album, “I'll Never Fall in Love Again.” She became the first African-American solo female artist of her generation to win the prestigious award for Best Contemporary Female Vocalist Performance. This award was only presented to one other legend, Miss Ella Fitzgerald.In 1970, Warwick received her second GRAMMY® Award for the best-selling album, “I'll Never Fall In Love Again,” and began her second decade of hits with Warner Bros. Records. In 1974, she hit the top of the charts with “Then Came You,” a million-selling duet with The Spinners. She then teamed up with Isaac Hayes for a highly successful world tour, “A Man and a Woman.”In 1976, Warwick signed with Arista Records, beginning a third decade of hit-making. Arista Records label-mate Barry Manilow produced her first Platinum-selling album, “Dionne,” which included back-to-back hits “I'll Never Love This Way Again,” and “Déjà vu.” Both recordings earned GRAMMY® Awards, making Warwick the first female artist to win the Best Female Pop and Best Female R&B Performance Awards.Warwick's 1982 album, “Heartbreaker,” co-produced by Barry Gibb and the Bee Gees, became an international chart-topper.

OK, it isn't rock music, but the Soundtrack to "Saturday Night Fever" was a tremendously successful album both commercially and critically, and it had a major impact in popular culture of the later 70's. The theatrical release of the movie actually went back to December of 1977, but it was the winner of the Grammy Award for Album of the Year in February 1979, one of only three soundtrack albums to do so. Composed by the Bee Gees and prominently featuring that band, this soundtrack is the second-best selling of all time behind "The Bodyguard." The Bee Gees actually didn't get involved with the film until it was in post-production. John Travolta was dancing to Stevie Wonder and Boz Scaggs when the scenes were filmed. Columbia Records refused legal clearance for Scaggs material because they were pursuing another disco movie at the time, and the Bee Gees were commissioned to write the songs for the film. The brothers Gibb wrote the songs primarily in a single weekend. The resulting success would change the trajectory of both the Bee Gees and actor John Travolta. The Bee Gees would become a group often compared to the Beatles in the late 70's. Travolta, already well known for his role in the television series "Welcome Back, Kotter," would become an A-list celebrity and a household name.In 2013 the album was added to the National Recording Registry in the Library of Congress for preservation.Lynch is responsible for this travesty, as the other participants do so under protest. Support your local rock band, folks! Night FeverThis song was originally called "Saturday Night," but Robin Gibb was concerned about that name because of the number of songs already bearing the name. "Night Fever" was inspired by Percy Faith's "Theme from 'A Summer Place'", and it spent 8 weeks at the top of the Billboard charts.How Deep Is Your LoveThis pop ballad was released in September of 1977, ahead of the movie. It had hit the top of the Billboard Hot 100 by Christmas Day of 1977, remained there for 3 weeks, and spent 17 total weeks in the top 10. Barry Gibb has commented that this is his favorite Bee Gees song. It won Best Pop Performance by a Group at the February 1978 Grammy awards.You Should Be DancingPrior to their involvement with the "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack, the Bee Gees first released this track on their album "Children of the World" in 1976. This is the song playing when Travolta takes over the disco dance floor. Jive Talkin'Here is another song that had been previously issued before the soundtrack was released. The lead single from the album "Main Course" was released in May 1975, long before "Saturday Night Fever." The song was originally called "Drive Talking," and the rhythm was inspired by the sound the band's car made crossing the Julia Tuttle Causeway as they traveled to the studio in Miami. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Dancing Queen by ABBAA mockumentary called "ABBA: The Movie" was in the theatres at this time in the U.S. STAFF PICKS:Is She Really Going Out with Him by Joe JacksonWayne gets the staff picks going with a song that asks why good looking women date horrible men. Joe Jackson is often confused with Elvis Costello, another artist releasing albums at the time. This is Jackson's debut single from his debut album, "Look Sharp."The Gambler by Kenny RogersBruce brings us Kenny Roger's signature song. Songwriter Don Schlitz wrote this song in 1976 and it was recorded by several musicians including Johnny Cash before Rogers took it to number 1 on the country charts and number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100. The gambler looks through life through the lens of poker, knowing "every hand's a winner, and every hand's a loser," and of course "you've got to know then to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em."Stumblin' In by Chris Norman and Suzi QuatroRob's staff pick is the sole top 40 hit by female rock pioneer Suzi Quatro, and Norman's only hit outside of his previous band, Smokie. This duet made it to number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. Both singers have a smoky vocal sound.Do You Think I'm Sexy? by Rod StewartLynch notes Stewart's ability to surf the waves of popularity with this staff pick. While Rod Stewart honed his craft in the rock genre, he achieved both popularity and notoriety with his polarizing choice of embracing disco music in the late 70's. Today this song remains one of his most popular tunes. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Pegasus by The Allman Brothers BandThe Allman Brothers were decidedly NOT a disco band in this instrumental jam.
