The Bee Gees were one of the most unique music groups of the 60s and 70s. They produced a sound and style that was unique and has stood the test of time. Their music was made timeless when they produced the soundtrack for the blockbuster film Saturday Night Fever. No doubt, their music will continue to inspire others.

Sadly, three of the Bee Gees and their mother, Barbara are no longer with us. They left behind a legacy of great music and artistry.

Robin Gibb left us in 2012 from a kidney failure. His vibrato vocals were a perfect complement to Barry’s falsetto singing. Maurice Gibb left us in 2003 following surgery to his intestine. He died due to cardiac arrest. He was a multi-faceted musician who played the keyboard, guitar, and percussion instruments.

Andy Gibb died well before his brothers in 1988 at the age of 30. He died from an inflammatory heart virus due to cocaine addiction. Nevertheless, he helped the Bee Gees become one of the most popular pop groups of their era.

The Bee Gees got their musical talents from their mother Barbara. She died at the age of 95 in 2016. In the early days of their career, The Bee Gees had their parents manage their careers.

Barry Gibb is the surviving member of The Bee Gees. He misses his brothers and often talks about their talents and how The Bee Gees became popular. We hope that for many more years we’ll get to learn about this talented group of brothers and how they transformed popular music.

Let’s learn more about how each of the Bee Gees died…

How Each of the Bee Gees Died

I’m 80 years old and still love the BG s. If the younger generations aren’t fans it’s there loss. There will never be another group like the BG s.

[Superbokka]

The Bee Gees are timeless and their music will live forever.

[richardthompson]

Those of us who were alive during the 60s, 70s, and 80s were blessed to have experienced the growth and sounds of the Bee Gee's. Powerful!

[korobin]

I still love this group ! My heart still pounds when I hear their music. The are truly unique !!

[haynes]

The Bee Gees are still popular to this day and always will be, in my opinion.

[jaeboston]

"How do yo mend a broken heart" is my favorite BeeGees song.

[debgoldsworth]

I am in my late 60's and still love the Bee Gees. I believe the younger generation would love these guys too. They are unforgettable.

[jasonlommen]

I’m 50 and love the BeeGees, hardly a day goes by without playing their music. They’ve definitely stood the test of time and will continue to do so.

[justinepurdham]

Being from Miami, I seen the Beegees quite a few times. Always loved their music. Was so sad when they started dying, such a tragedy, but they live on in their music! God Bless them all!🙏🙏

[marklangkamp]

Their music will live forever, it’s just that great!

Never in the History of Music has there been a more sustaining group of composers & performers in both life and beyond. They aren't even second to "The Beatles" as they stand shoulder to shoulder and then some. While two off The Bee Gees are gone (Robin & Maurice a/k/a "The Twins") their brother Barry continues their legacy at times accompanied by his sons, nephews and niece which for me personally brings tears. To this day Barry Gibb remains active musically and has recorded an extensive CD as a tribute to country music and his brothers which all three brothers followed all through their growing years...Barry oversaw recordings by some of country music's most famous artists performing many of The Bee Gees music with their own recognizable spin...all recorded in the same studio where Presley recorded in Tennessee...Barry was in awe at actually being able to secure the same studio. You cannot see enough, hear enough or read enough about these talented brothers whose "perfect harmony" is legendary. Their younger brother, who unfortunately preceded Robin and Maurice in death, was slated to officially join his brothers years later as the "Fourth" Bee Gee...an event millions of fans looked forward to and got a taste of years earlier when "The Baby Bee Gee" Andy joined his three brothers during one of their most memorable concerts "The White" concert wherein they all were dressed in varying degrees of white...it was during the intro to their last song of the evening "You Should Be Dancing" that big brother Barry announced "Ladies and Gentlemen, our brother Andy" to the thousands in attendance whose cheers were felt even though it was later seen in video. Oh what a night! Their music, their voices, their distinct sound left an indelible mark on all who heard them perform. Sir Barry knighted by Prince Charles was an eventual historic event...one I'm sure his three brothers watched from a stage lite by stars and blessed by the almighty.

Bee Gees has so many beautiful songs that still can be remembered after decades. Am sure the younger generation and generation to come would love them too.

[stevev]

I’m 70 and I remember growing up listening to them in the 60s before their disco sound era. Robin had a unique voice.

[stephenb]

There will never be another Super group like the Bee Gees. Their music is timeless and fabulous.

[leesashriber]

One of the greatest groups ever! I also loved Andy Gibb. Such a loss, as were Robin and Maurice.

I will always treasure The Bee Gees music as I grew up with them …. On the radio, records, going roller skating in the 70’s to their music~ I’ll never forget Skate King which played every song of theirs one New Years Eve at an All Night Skate! I remember my parents making me & a friend take a nap before we went but we had to fake the nap we were way too excited to sleep b4 the all-nite-skate!! We’d go and hear all the BeeGees 😊😎
Those days were the best days of my life! I remember my niece( 3 yrs younger than me, ) she sure had a crush on Andy Gibb!!
She was only like 6 & I was 9!
We knew our music at a young age us girls back then~
These guys will never be forgotten!!! They were all.really good, caring men, fabulous performers, and A SURE ONE ☝🏼 OF A KIND VOICE!!
Anywhere you are, Anywhere you go, you will always recognize the voices of The Bee Gees!!
There will never be another group like them~ & to be cherished again ~forever!
God bless The Bee Gees in heaven and on earth! Amen!!
