Although I am a progressive and heavy rock fan, I have a soft spot for the Bee Gees. I grew up listening to the group in the sixties because (a) they were huge and (b) my mum liked them. Maurice married Lulu locally too, amidst a hail of publicity. Robin is my favourite member of the group - his 'I Started a Joke' is a really great record.
Robin Gibb does a lot for the market town where he lives: allowing people to use his grounds, donating items to charity auctions, adding his name to local campaigns and getting involved in events. At a time when many successful celebrities seem self-obsessed, Robin, who is more successful than most, is a modest and considerate person.
After the death of Maurice, Robin and Barry spoke about how they would like to continue to perform together, but as The Brothers Gibb rather than The Bee Gees. Despite this, Robin is virtually retired. He lives at his home in the UK and does not spend large amounts of time in California. I hope Robin makes much greater progress than the stories in the press would imply. At only 61, he deserves the time to enjoy his retirement.
