Topic: Bee Gees Robin Gibb

http://news.yahoo.com/robin-gibb-bee-ge … kAgYbQtDMD

Kind of surprised nobody posted this yet.  Robin had the voice of an angle and even if Disco Sucks The Saturday Night Fever Album didn't!  We'll miss you Robin, RIP

Re: Bee Gees Robin Gibb

Even though he's gone and it feels like we lost him, he's better off.  The pain is gone now and I'm guessing he's in that big singing group in the sky now.

Break out the disco ball and leisure suits. RIP Robin. I did a lot of dancing to his tunes.

Re: Bee Gees Robin Gibb

A very sad loss for the music industry.


"Everyone should be aware that the Bee Gees are second only to Lennon and McCartney as the most successful songwriting unit in British popular music," said Gambaccini - UK broadcaster.

While we're here - a shout for Donna Summer who died last week - 63

Re: Bee Gees Robin Gibb

RIP after a very longb fight that I thought he had won, to an extent. Not my type of music but a great talent non the less.

Re: Bee Gees Robin Gibb

If ever a band polarised opinions, it was The BeeGees; however, their contribution to popular music can't be ignored nor underestimated. Very sad news that Robin has lost his brave fight against terrible illness.

Similar thought also go out for Donna Summer who lost her private battle against cancer last week. Dance/Disco may not be the music of choice on this board, but surely her voice and talent helped define a genre and an era. With the power and range, mixed with gospel and r'n'b, she was one of the greats.

Re: Bee Gees Robin Gibb

I'll add my condolences. Went to see the Australian Bee Gees in Vegas 2 weeks ago. You forget how many hits they had and songs covered by other artists. I remember buying "I've gotta get a message to you" and "Massachussets".
