In the now Deluxe edition (2016)/ Barry Gibb

"The last surviving Bee Gees second solo album (and first in 32 years) understandably echoes the bands world-famous music. Gibbs sons Stephen and Ashley fill the late Robin and Maurices giant shoes and reproduce trademark harmonies around Gibbs quivering lead vocals. However, where the Bee Gees catalogue runs the gamut from beat pop to disco, Gibbs solo songs rattle between balladry, country and rock. The production is generally safe but solid, and his ease with pop songwriting results in occasional cliches, but for the most part these are achingly sincere songs dealing with the aftermath of loss. "Star Crossed Lovers" pays lovely tribute to his wife, Linda, and few songs are as beautifully sad as "Shadows", "End Of The Rainbow" or "The Long Goodbye". The album carries a sense of rejuvenation and determination, and the triumphant "Home Truth Song" is the work of a man carrying on a huge legacy and doing his brothers proud." (Dave Simpson, The Guardian; 3 uit 5 sterren)
