Background

edit

In early 1988, the Bee Gees began recording One as their studio album after E.S.P. They stopped recording due to the death of their younger brother Andy Gibb on 10 March 1988. They continued recording in Mayfair Studios from November to December 1988 and February to March 1989. Just after they released their album, the brothers began touring in Japan, Europe, North America, Oceania and back to Japan. The full concert at the National Tennis Centre in Melbourne, Australia in November 1989 was released as a concert video entitled One for All Tour on 10 April 1991. During the DVD era, it was re-released as The Very Best of The Bee Gees Live! in 1997.
