[OftenMisled]

Such a rare talent. Pity about his ridiculous bisexual druid wife :(

[violet640]

With or without teeth- don't care ....He's dreamy....gorgeous ....brilliant musician with such heavenly voice. Love him ...

[beckiewho]

Such an Awesome tune ...

[kevykev38]

What's wrong with his hands and arms?

[ineedatimemachine]

facial features make a someone , and this someone is a brilliant musician , i can not fault him any way, he rocked then and he rocks today

[999marydoll]

[darklighter1]

AAAARRRGGHH!!! DENTAL CALAMITY!!!

[BeeGeesFan999]

thank you for posting

never seen this before

[dropjawbertone]

Robin must have had work done to his teeth sometime in the early to mid 70's. They look fine from that point on but before then, they had some... issues. But I have always loved and treasured each Gibb brother and love their entire catalog of music! Amazing singers, writers, performers and producers! :)

[i8reality]

More proof that anything Mike Patton touches turns to gold :-P

[thefurv]

wow, Robin performed so well, looks like such a nice day in beautiful Aotearoa 1970 i wish i'd been old enough..alive even! to have gone to it

[Bongoplonk]

I was at this concert .. it was New Zealand's first outdoor 'rock' concert. lol.

[ititis]

¿Hay una versión más antigua?

[paogabri]

lo amo!

[thevoicefg]

Great song, great voice, great man! He was, I think 21 years old on the video... so let´s be fair...

[Grifiki]

This is a nonsense song. Why do you try to make it real??? He Broke his head, they tried to fix it with Viniger and brown paper. It is from an Old Classic story.

Well you people? Which was it??

[Kailjiin]

@Grifiki why do u listen to it if its nonsense? douche

[ilsy74]

This is a fantastic festival, which I never knew until this! Good on you for posting, and hope you can get the other 2 songs up (he did 4, right?)

[cspace1234nz]

This is brilliant, what was life like before youtube ?

Would probably have never seen this.

[demonioazul1]

this is great! and we live again! and still living ...

[kevooom]

wow ! bad teeth ! good song !

[RDJim]

@kevooom before his caps..



[spaceghost1975]

No. It's not about a girl.

It's about us all. We go through life knowing the in our hearts that society is cruel, selfish and going down the wrong path. We want to change it, but get laughed at. We become afraid. We stop fighting for what's right.

We find out in the end that we were right and the masses were wrong...but we never had the courage to do anything about it. Essentially we only helped perpetuate the cycle.

The joke is on us. A life with noi meaning.

War. Greed.

[casanova7able]

He propesed but she took it as a joke. We are all fools in love.

[COZBOODEE]

brilliant song. does anyone know what the song is about?

[LukeShoveller]

They've never said but you can figure a theory out yourself.;)

[BOYZEEE1]

I'm not sure what the song is about. I would hazard a guess that the subject wanted to be stand up comedian ... but he was crap at telling jokes. so .. he became a plumber in Poland.

[LukeShoveller]

Interesting theory, thats up there with the devil interpretation.

[jenna1818]

I

can. not.

believe you have this recording.

Thank you for posting it.

Amazing stuff.

[22richie]

Very special, very rare. Thank you so much for sharing.

[jessedaan]

I was wondering....

What means "rare"???

Something like strange??

[amsedelm]

Rare means, in English, very hard to get, one of a kind, not seen anywhere, not available. raro in Spanish means strange, but also means rare, hard to get. Hope this helps.

[leah1959]

once again, I have to ask, where do you people find this stuff...

[mayasaunt]

Thanks. A real gem.

[kobioor]

That's incredible!! My fav version of this song; ending is awesome...

[MedicalExaminersRule]

omg! I would do anything to have robin sing this to me, and me alone!!! I would cry! then pass out! wake up and scream! then have a seizure and die!

(I'm cring just hearing him now!)

[Dukekesting]

"Joke" comes the Venitian "Joka," which is a mispronunciation of the Arabic Joha or Goha.

[Rianewjob01]

Great to see this. The use of real orchestration adds to the effect. These clips show how things have changed. Policemen kneeling during the performance in front of a peaceful crowd would be a rare thing nowadays.

[Wing3505]

time has passed by,but Robin hadn't!

His style haven't changed on the stage!

[BethanyRadeka]

Imagine getting a chance to see this!?! Like locating a treasure chest! Thank you so much!

[BeeGees78]

Holw cow, this is super rare!

[BeeGeesRule]

OMG, this is totally awesome! :) THANK YOU! :)

*Swoon* :)

[DebbieinNH]

Classic Robin. Hadn't figured out what to do with his hands? Should have put them behind his ears...  Hey scruffs! How's it going!!

[BeeGeesFan]

GORGEOUS!

[BeeGeesFan]

GORGEOUS!

[israelifan]

[WindOfTheWisp]
