  In January 1975, the Bee Gees performed "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart" during an appearance on "Midnight Special." At this point in their career, the band was experiencing a significant resurgence in popularity following the release of their 1973 album "Life in a Tin Can." Although "Life in a Tin Can" had moderate success, it was their 1975 album "Main Course" that marked a pivotal moment in their transition to disco, featuring hits like "Jive Talkin'" and "Nights on Broadway." The live performance showcased their harmonious vocals and emotional delivery, which were central to their sound. Additionally, the band's distinct blend of pop, R&B, and later disco would lead them to become one of the best-selling music acts of all time, with their influence thriving beyond the '70s. This performance is a testament to their evolving style and the impactful combination of songwriting and stage charisma that defined their career during this era.
