Forte, Mei Mei Luo, Gustavo Correa, Alfredo Oliva (violin); Tim Barnes (viola); David Cole, Chris Glansdorp (cello); Jason Carder, Jim Hacker, Kenneth Faulk (trumpet); Dwayne Dixon (French horn); Joe Barati, Joe Hutchinson (trombone); Ben Stivers (piano, organ, keyboards, programming); Steve Rucker (drums); Peter-John Vettese (programming, background vocals); Roger Lyons (programming); John Merchant (drum programming).Audio Mixer: John Merchant.Recording information: Area 21; Middle Ear Studios.Photographer: Randee Saint Nicholas.After years of high-gloss production, this album represents the Bee Gees' attempt to return to their roots; simple, harmony-based pop tunes recorded in a straightforward manner. Accordingly, many of the songs here are based around Maurice and Barry Gibb's own acoustic guitar strumming, and of course the trio's distinctive vocal blend. Nevertheless, this is hardly lo-fi stuff. Sophisticated keyboard and electric guitar textures and programmed beats are not in short supply; the roots retrenchment is more a mindset than an arrangement tactic.While most of the tunes here seem to fall into the adult pop mode the group began mining in its post-disco phase, "She Keeps on Coming" is a rockabilly-tinged number that wouldn't have sounded out of place on a Traveling Wilburys album, "Technicolor Dreams" is a quaint, vaudevillian song that harks back to the band's quirky baroque pop days, and "The Extra Mile" recalls the Bee Gees' mid-'70s soul balladry. Stylistically, THIS IS WHERE I CAME IN is more of a look over the shoulder than a giant leap backwards.

Haven't heard the whole album yet BUT if the title track is any indication, then this should be the BEST bee gees record in years.
A really great album. The Bee Gees are back with some really good songs. A return to the late 60's early 70's songs they used to write before the disco years.
I think that this album is a magnificent piece of work by the Bee Gees. There is great musical flexibility to be experienced throughout the 14 tracks, with each Gibb brother taking turns on tackling the lead vocals. The tracks which standout most are 'Wedding Day' - a possible future single, 'Embrace' - featuring one of Robin's best ever performances, and 'Technicolour Dreams' which sounds rather...
Before making such un-educated remarks, listen to the CD. This CD sounds like nothing they have done before, which holds true for all of their albums. They keep re-inventing themselves so as not to sound old and stalem, like so many other older groups. This album mixes rock with classic balladry and great R&B. Another great effort from a great team of songwriters/singers/musicians.
Wonderful album. The Bee Gees at their finest.
Just another reason why the Bee Gees are still riding high. Two platinum albums in the 90s. Not even to mention 30 years of hits. This album has a lot of great songs, Wedding Day, Sacred Trust and She Keeps on Coming Back For More to name a few. Don't knock it until you try it. I DARE YOU to lister to the whole album
TIWICI is a definitive album that shows the Boy's still have diversity and individuality. Unlike todays fame which has a manufactured almost formulaic quality The Bee Gee's are naturally talented and prolific Brothers who appeal to all ages and sexes all over the world - An unquantifiable achievement. They have had their knockdowns in the past some self inflicted but mostly from 'critics' and...
EXCELLENT!!!WHAT ELSE CAN ONE SAY. SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE AS OTHERS HAVE SAID!!! MAURICE SINGS LEAD ON MAN IN THE MIDDLE!!!YOU GUYS HAVE TO HEAR THAT!!SOOOO COOL! AND MY KIDS LOVE I DONT WANNA LIVE LIKE THAT,WHAT A SHOCK TO HEAR BEE GEES ROCK......AGAIN!!
I noticed that people just gave this album 1 star just so it wouldn't be listed as number one. I would bet my house, car, kids, and dog that they haven't even heard this CD. They just voted because it's the Bee Gees and they automatically think, oh it must a disco album. That is so ridiculous! Read the critics reviews and listen to the music and find out why this album is 5 stars.

This Is Where I Came In [Enhanced] (CD - 2001)
This is a return to the Classic late 60's early 70's Bee Gees style, and it's like they haven't even beem away from it. "She keeps on coming" is as good as "Bad bad dreams from "To whom it may concern" The title track is as good as anything from the "Bee Gees 1st" album. Overall I give it 10 out of 10. It's amazing that they still have so many great song ideas...
