Bee Gees, "Stayin' Alive"

I have to hand it to the Bee Gees: They each look very serious in a doorway and/or window pane.  Together, they're a disco-fueled force to be reckoned with.  

This awesome song is, of course, from "Saturday Night Fever."  But you're probably thinking to yourself, Shouldn't this be from the critically-acclaimed movie, "Stayin' Alive?"  Well, we're both right.  "Stayin' Alive" the movie could very well be on my top 5 list of the most ironically awesome movies.  How John Travolta ever bounced back from that is anyone's guess; I suppose you could say his career is quite simply... stayin' alive.

The Gary Puckett and the Union Gap greatest hits CD that I bought a few years ago is truly one of the finest albums of my collection.  I don't know what it is about these guys that just sounds awesome to me.  "Over You" could easily my favorite GPATUG song.  I have record after record down in my collection; maybe I'll have to break those out this weekend...

But when El Paso comes up, I always think about Marty Robbins.  And now, after seeing this video, I'll always see him wearing that outstanding white suit:
