One

After the European success of their previous album, E.S.P., the Gibb brothers began to work on the One album in early 1988. In March, their brother Andy suddenly died and the Bee Gees took a break until November when they returned to the studio to complete the album, but this time they shifted to Mayfair Studios in London, making One their first album since Mr. Natural to be recorded partly or fully in the British capital, though “Ordinary Lives” was started before Andy Gibb’s death. The style of One was more melancholic than E.S.P., and heavily influenced by the loss of their brother. The album was dedicated to Andy and the song “Wish You Were Here” was written as a tribute to him. The album was co-produced with Brian Tench, who had worked with them on the previous album. Related session outtake “Shape of Things to Come” was written for the Bee Gees’ contribution to the 1988 Olympics album called One Moment in Time released the same year.-Wikipedia
