For the first time, Robin and Maurice joined Barry as instrumentalists. Robin played a solo on melodica, a mouth-operated keyboard instrument, while Maurice played one of four guitars featured on the recordings. Robin continued contributing keyboards until the end of the sixties, after which he stuck mostly to singing. Maurice, on the other hand, went on from here to become proficent on guitar, bass and keyboards, contributing greatly to the group's instrumental backing throughout their career together. -wiki

Today’s Video:  Bee Gees - Battle Of The Blue And Grey


"The Battle of the Blue and the Grey" is the Bee Gees' first single, backed by "The Three Kisses of Love" and released on March 1963. Like all the Bee Gees' output prior to 1967 (with the notable exception of Spicks and Specks) it was only released in Australia and did not chart although the group performed both songs on Australian television. In September 1963, it was included as the third track on their first EP The Bee Gees. Neither song appeared on an album until the mop-up compilation Turn Around, Look at Us in 1967 but both are included on the 1998 compilation Brilliant from Birth which collects most of the Australian material. -wiki
