Congrats to the brothers for trying a harder edged sound musically with "Tragedy", but the name of the track is sadly appropriate regarding Barry's obvious channeling of his inner chipmunk vocally. Even sadder is the twins following along. A perfect example of the old addage that just because you CAN do something, doesn't mean you SHOULD. Of course that's just my subjective opinion. This harbinger of the disco-era BeeGees might not be my cup of tea, but this album, along with hundreds of other disco records sure sold a lot of copies. For me, this record proved that the BeeGees "Spirit" had indeed flown.
