Hello Friends! As voted on by my Patrons, this week on Mixology we’re taking on the 2LP beast from The Bee Gees, the ever-fascinating Odessa. Originally issued in 1969 in stereo, as well as a late mono issue in the UK, this gives us two lovely mixes for this wonderful album, both of which I heartily enjoy, and of course both carry with them their own unique elements. From the grandiose entry of the title cut, through single First of May and the country tinged Marley Purt Drive, and even the orchestral instrumental piece Seven Seas Symphony, there’s a real mix of flavours here, giving us plenty to sink our teeth into across these 17 tracks. So which mix is your Black Diamond? Let’s take a trip down to Melody Fair with Edison and find out…

Happy Listening,
