1978: The Bee Gees' "Stayin' Alive" was # 1 this week

As I understand, The Bee Gees did not record "Stayin' Alive" specifically for "Saturday Night Fever".   

They sent a few songs to Robert Stigwood who was working on a movie about young people and New York City dance clubs.   

The movie was a smash and so was the soundtrack now available in a digital format.  

It featured 3 of the biggest hits of the 1970's:  "How deep is your love", "Night fever" and "Stayin' Alive".

As I've posted before, the movie was OK but the soundtrack had us dancing!
