Singer Maurice Gibbs has died. He sang with the Bee Gees. He was only 53. He underwent abdominal surgery last week from an intestinal blockage.
To the family of Maurice, You have my condolences............. |

This is very sad. He is the second of the Gibbs Brothers to pass away much too soon. Andy Gibb died a number of years ago of a drug overdose. I believe he was about 30 years old at the time.
My condolences to the surviving Gibbs Brothers, and their family. |

This is heartbreaking. I grew up listening to The Bee Gees. They could harmonize like no other group and were hit machines in the 60s and 70s.
I have their music video, One Night Only. It's their 1997 MGM Grand concert performance in Las Vegas. It's wonderful. On a full-screen behind them, the scene (from Saturday Night Fever) plays with John Travolta walking with that can of paint as they sing Stayin' Alive as well as shots of Travolta on the dance floor in that famous white suit. There's a montage of Andy Gibb (complete with baby pictures) as they sing his hit song, Don't Throw it All Away (our love). At the end, another montage with home movies of the 3 brothers with their wives and children. They sing all of their hits. It's 110 minutes of wonderful entertainment and a must-have for any Bee Gee's fan. I'll have to watch it later, but it will seem strange. ![]() Maurice always seemed to be the quiet one to me...never the front man like his brother Barry. I feel very bad about the passing of this man...the one with the long coat and hat. I've always loved the Brothers Gibb. |
