  In April 2001, during the A&E Cable channel's "Live By Request," the Bee Gees were in a reflective phase of their career, just two years away from the passing of Maurice Gibb in 2003. Leading up to this performance, their most recent studio album was "Still Waters," released in 1997, which had received a mixed response but included the hit single "Alone." The performance captures Maurice Gibb in a poignant light, showcasing his enduring vocal contributions and stage presence. This live showcase stands as a testament to their legacy, especially considering it was one of the last significant public performances by Maurice. Moreover, the Bee Gees' history of blending pop, rock, and disco elements is evident even in this later work, reflecting their evolution from the 1960s and 1970s into the 21st century. This recording serves not only as an audiovisual reminder of their talent but also as a meaningful farewell to one of pop music’s iconic voices.
