  This is one of the best breakdowns of an incredibly intricate song that too many just write off. Brilliant songwriting and execution.

  This production just jumps out of your speakers. To deny its greatness is to be asleep.

  Thank you! So good! It still amazes me the fact that Maurice was a monster bass player but is still incredibly underrated!

  It&apos;s probably the best production I&apos;ve ever heard and I&apos;m a rocker from way back.

  that Maurice Gibb bassline is profound, so good and syncopated. And it&apos;s a Rick bass!

  Blue Weaver on keys. &nbsp;Everything he added was amazing. &nbsp;Sounds like ARP Solina stringer phased with the strings.
