Robin Gibb, one of the two surviving Bee Gees, died of cancer at age 62 today, mere weeks after slipping into and waking from a coma.
Since the mid 60's, the Bee Gees had a large string of hits. However, their greatest success came in the mid '70's with "Jive Talking," "You Should Be Dancing," and songs from "Saturday Night Fever" that they either sang themselves or wrote for others. They also wrote songs for their younger brother Andy.
Although they continued on into the 80's, the trio's popularity waned, and they eventually quit recording.
This is the second tragedy in the past few days. RIP, Robin. You'll be terribly missed. How deep was our love for you.
