Mr. Natural (Bee Gees album)
''Mr. Natural'' is the Bee Gees' twelfth album (tenth worldwide), released in July 1974. It was the first Bee Gees release to be produced by Arif Mardin, who was partially responsible for launching the group's later major success with the follow-up album ''Main Course''. The album's music incorporates more rhythm and blues, soul and funk and hard rock than their previous albums.
The album reached No. 178 on the ''Billboard'' 200. ''Mr. Natural'' was also the first album to feature drummer Dennis Bryon. Although the album contains R&B and soul numbers, Barry said that the album was "whiter" than their next album ''Main Course'' (on which he said that they started to turn black on their songs).
==Background==
The decision to work with Mardin came after the RSO label rejected the brothers' post-''Life in a Tin Can'' album, which had been provisionally entitled ''A Kick in the Head Is Worth Eight in the Pants''. Robert Stigwood was not ready to give up on the Bee Gees, but he did not believe in the musical direction they were taking. At the suggestion of Jerry Wexler and Ahmet Ertegun of Atlantic, Stigwood sent them to work with Atlantic producer and arranger Arif Mardin, who began to draw out their love of rhythm and blues music. Mardin brought the band's attention to the dance scene unfolding at the time, and the brothers Gibb in turn adapted their songwriting and arrangements to a more upbeat style.
