“Love You Inside Out” by Bee Gees

"Love You Inside Out" is the Bee Gees easing into a slow funk groove on Spirits Having Flown, their 1979 album for RSO. Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb wrote it together, Barry takes the lead vocal with all three stacking the backing parts, and the band behind them is tight: Maurice on bass, Barry on acoustic guitar, Alan Kendall and George Terry on electric guitars, Blue Weaver on keyboards and synthesizer, Dennis Bryon on drums and the Boneroo Horns blowing over the top. The Bee Gees produced it with Albhy Galuten and Karl Richardson, who also engineered.

In June 1979 it pushed Donna Summer's "Hot Stuff" out of the Hot 100's top spot for a week, the album's third number one and the last of their career in the US. They wouldn't see the top 10 again for ten years.
