Ode to the Bee Gees-- Part 1: Just One Brother Left Now
From the May 21, 2012, List of the Day by Rob O'Connor "Robin Gibb and remembering the Bee Gees.
The Bee Gees were not just a disco group. Barry is now the only remaining one of the Gibb brothers. Andy Gibb died in 1988, Maurice in 2003 and Robin in 2012.
After not recording for awhile, i see that Barry Gibb has a song "In the Now" that is #23 on the November 19, 2016 Beach Music Top 40 Chart. The Bee Gee's "Massachusetts" was one of Liz and my "Special Songs" when we first started dating and going steady back in high school.
This is a career overview list with a few obscurities thrown in as well. Mr. O'Connor gives some more information on each one, but I'm mostly just listing the songs.
25. If I Can't Have You-- Barry did this one with a voice that reached sky-high. Best known by Yvonne Elliman.
24. Melody Fair-- From the red "Odessa" double album with the red velvet cover.
23. Words
Little Old "Magnolia Breath" Me.. --RoadDog
THE SHOCKING TRUTH ABOUT OKRA: Consuming fried okra north of the Mason-Dixon line is considered gastric perversion and may lead close friends to refer to you as "magnolia breath."
