The Bee Gee's Robin Gibb is apparently very ill and in a coma.

Damn, he only has 2 years on me. Hope you get better or at least have a smooth trip, Robin.
This is the first Bee Gee's song I remember. (A precursor of "Timothy"?):
The New York Mining Disaster of 1941
Other's from my High School, pre-disco days:
I've Gotta Get A Message to You
To Love Somebody
Words
Holiday
Every Christian Lion Hearted man Will Show You

what's wrong with that family's genes?
quote:
Maurice Gibb, Robin's twin brother, died in 2003 at the age of 53 due to complications from a twisted intestine.
The Bee Gees' younger brother, Andy, who had a successful solo career, died in 1988 at age 30 of a heart ailment.

I thinks Andy's was drug related

Never was a big fan, even of their pre-disco period. "To Love Somebody" (allegedly written for Otis Redding -- Gram Parsons and The Flying Burrito Brothers do a magnificent version here) and "Holiday" were their best tracks.
Best wishes and get well soon to him

I do not know if anyone but you (maybe a couple others) would get the "Timothy" reference.

I have been saving "Timothy" for a Most Disgusting Top 40 Hit thread (along with Bloodrock's "DOA")

By far, my favorite Bee Gees song. Get well, Robin.

You mean like living forever? 
He is a Bee Gee. That will be the joke when he dies. Deal with it.

Wow - didn't think anyone else remembered Blood Rock. The other obscure record I used to play all the time was by Aphrodite's Child - called 666 I believe. Was based on the bible, but extremely weird.
Most accessible song from the album: LINK

I guess 62 isn't that young, but dang, if he does that will make three of four to die before retirement age. Hope he pulls out of the coma.

Love some Bee Gees and Robin was such an important part of their beginnings.
Love his part on this:
