Main Course is the Bee Gees' eleventh album, released in 1975. This album marked a change for the Bee Gees as it was their first disco album. Working with producer Arif Mardin, their music became much more R & B influenced. Main Course also featured the debut of Barry Gibb's falsetto. The famous album cover was designed by US artist Drew Struzan.
The album peaked at #14 on the U.S. Billboard album chart. Three singles from the album also charted on Billboard's single chart. "Fanny" at #12, "Nights on Broadway" at #7, and "Jive Talkin'" at #1.
