After Dark is an album by
Andy Gibb. It was his final studio album, and was released in 1980.
With drugs impeding his previous ability to write and even fully sing the tracks on his own record, Gibb was only able to forge his performance with nearly intrusive support from brother
Barry. In March 1980 the last of Gibb's Top Ten singles charted just ahead of the album's release. "Desire" was originally recorded for the
Bee Gees' 1979 album
Spirits Having Flown but had Andy record new lead vocals replacing those of Barry's. A second single, "I Can't Help It", a duet with family friend
Olivia Newton-John, reached the Top Twenty.
The album's poor performance, coupled with Gibb's mounting drug problems, would lead to
RSO Records dropping Gibb from its roster. On VH1's
Behind the Music, label founder
Robert Stigwood said that he was heartbroken at having to make the decision to drop Gibb, but that his behaviour gave him very little choice.
Although the album is not currently in print, it was released to
iTunes along with the other two Andy Gibb albums in 2011.
