Saturday Night Fever: The Original Movie Sound Track was the soundtrack album from the blockbuster film Saturday Night Fever starring John Travolta. Along with the success of the movie, the soundtrack, performed primarily by The Bee Gees, became one of the best-selling albums of all time. The cultural impact of Saturday Night Fever in the United States was tremendous, bringing the nascent disco scene into the mainstream.
The soundtrack hit the #1 spot on Billboard Music Chart's Pop Album and Black Album charts. In 2003 the TV network VH1 named it the 57th greatest album of all time.
