CountryDiscoPop

Barry Gibb is a Country and Disco act. Their catalogue also touches Pop and Psychedelic rock. Their sound grew out of Jimmy Jones, Cliff Richard, Paul Anka, Buddy Holly and The Everly Brothers. Those roots explain a lot about how Barry Gibb arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Bee Gees, Rod Stewart, Leo Sayer, Elton John and Badfinger, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Graham Bonnet, Samantha Sang, P. P. Arnold, Human Nature and Picturesque Matchstickable Messages from the Status Quo, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 33 connections around Barry Gibb, reaching back through Jimmy Jones and forward to Graham Bonnet.
