Publisher's Synopsis
Brothers Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb trailblazed their way across pop music since the 1960s and were the first band to top the UK singles chart in each of three decades and the first group to have Top 20 hits in five decades. In America, Barry is the most successful British songwriter in US chart history, after the legendary Lennon & McCartney. This beautifully designed book tells their amazing story in words, photographs and rare memorabilia.The group's worldwide record sales are over 220 million - including Saturday Night Fever, the best-selling soundtrack of all time - and the list of star artists who have recorded their compositions reads like a best-of chart and features the likes of Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross, Dolly Parton, Elvis Presley, Dionne Warwick, Destiny's Child, Al Green, Rod Stewart and Take That. They were awarded CBEs in 2002 in recognition of their extraordinary contribution to music.
