Odessa is the Bee Gees' fourth album, released as a double LP in 1969.
Disagreements over which song was to be released as a single ("First of May" won out) led to Robin Gibb leaving the group in 1969. This, and the departure of guitarist Vince Melouney reduced the group to three members: (Barry Gibb, Maurice Gibb, and Colin Peterson). This group would record the Cucumber Castle album.
