Mythology was originally announced for 2009, and has finally arrived after a year's delay. After that, a gorgeous boxed set devoted to the Odessa album materialized, but plans have otherwise stalled, excepting a couple of decent greatest hits repackages. While a remastered edition was released, it contained no additional material or new packaging, hardly the expected treatment for such a landmark recording. Then, the 30th anniversary of Saturday Night Fever was bizarrely overlooked. The promise of more such collections to come was particularly enticing. The Studio Albums: 1967-1968 contained expanded mono/stereo editions of the group's first three "canon" albums with a generous amount of unissued tracks. Fans and collectors were rewarded with that year’s release of a deluxe box set. When Warner Music Group's Rhino arm announced its licensing of the Bee Gees catalogue in 2006, hopes were high. The release of Mythology is something of a bittersweet affair. (Many of the Bee Gees’ songs were credited to all three brothers, but each disc selects the songs on which one brother may have stood out in the production, songwriting and/or lead vocal duties.) Mythology is designed in a unique format as each of its four discs is devoted to the core works of one brother. While Andy was never a member of The Bee Gees, his all-too-short recording career was frequently a family affair and he solidifies his credentials as an unofficial Bee Gee here. The collection is a particularly poignant tribute as Barry and Robin called in Maurice Gibb's widow, Yvonne, and Peta Gibb, daughter of Andy Gibb, to participate. Family was foremost on Barry and Robin Gibb's mind when creating Mythology, and the Gibb family crest adorns its cover. The Gibbs belong to the same tradition alongside the Everlys, the Wilsons, the Jacksons, the Carpenters, and so many others. There's always something unmistakable about a family's vocal blend.

The Bee Gees are celebrating half a century in the business we call show, and Rhino has invited fans to the party with the release of Mythology: The 50th Anniversary Collection, a new four-disc box.
