 The 30th Classic Remastered! September 20, 2007
Martin A Hogan (San Francisco, CA. (Hercules))
10 out of 10 found this review helpful
"SNF" sold over 35 million copies world-wide. It also garnered seven #1 hits in the USA alone. The Bee Gees also won several Grammys from this for production and vocal arrangement. A unique mix of disco, funk and orchestration, this album (now one CD and newly remastered to perfection) defined a generation and a lasting style of music (albeit with repercussions). If you are still stalling on buying this, consider that it has been remixed and if you ever want to listen to dance songs that actually contain interesting lyrics; this is the one.
The Ultimate 'Going Out' Album April 5, 2008

Saturday Night Fever was a phenomenon at the time of its release. The film and its soundtrack remain classic works. As well as the big hits from the movie there are a number of lesser known tracks here which featured in the film.
If you're heading out after a hard working week put this album on, turn it up, open a drink and let the good times roll.

I love the sound tracks on this CD - it reminds me of summer days and blue skies and Happy Days (no Fonz pun intended!) Recommend if you are a Saturday Night Era person - excellent acoustic playback and have saved the tracks now to my computer (just in case)!
Sound of the late 1970s July 24, 2007

This masterpiece has lost none of its appeal after all these years, proving the critics wrong and the BeeGees right. Part of its popularity must be due to the clever mix of fast dance numbers and lovely soaring ballads. The frenetic pace of e.g. Staying Alive and Night Fever is balanced by the serene pace of How Deep Is Your Love.
For fans of the old-style BeeGees ballads, this new direction with the edgy falsetto vocals and the nervous beat came as a shock initially, but those hits like Jive Talkin' and You Should Be Dancing soon enough swept one up in the disco fever. I love Yvonne Elliman's poignant ballad If I Can't Have You, while the tracks by Kool & The Gang, MFSB and KC & The Sunshine Band are great too.
But the real underground classic here is Disco Inferno by Trammps, nine minutes of burbling, bubbling, stomping, storming, gripping funk that is as anthemic as any great rock song by for example Bruce Springsteen. Come to think of it, most of the BeeGees tracks here can also be considered as anthems of the disco generation.
Besides serving as bridges between the classic hits, the filler tracks like A Fifth Of Beethoven and Salsation add authenticity to the overall listening experience and serve to strengthen the ambience. This album and the movie took disco out of the underground and reinvented it as a mainstream phenomenon.
While rock music was going through the convulsions of the punk and new wave revolutions, disco was having the party of the decade. And this album, along with the music of Donna Summer, Grace Jones, Chic, Giorgio Moroder, Boney M, Village People and others, provided the soundtrack to an era.
It's a must have July 4, 2010
M. C. Slade (Bath, UK)
It's definitely a must-have for everybody who was between the ages of 12 and 42 in the mid seventies. I was at the lower end of that spectrum but the songs of this great album pervaded the airwaves everywhere one went in '77 and '78. I remember listening to Yvonne Elliman's If I Can't Have You on the coach radio on a school trip to Brecon, just as I remember hearing Tavares' version of More Than A Woman on a trip to Weymouth Speedway in the school holidays!
My only wish is that these songs were presented in the order that they appear in the film. As an aficionado of the film I think it adds a bit more authenticity to the soundtrack when one can place the songs chronologically in ones mind whilst listening to it, rather than flitting backwards and forwards between scenes.
"I love to watch you dance. I LOVE to watch you dance!" So many lines such as this one evoke great memories for me, of a film that (lest we forget) Siskel and Ebert thought was as good as I did. Now that's some testimony.
