<p>Very sad day, he was a great force with the Bee-Gees, one of my favorite albums, Saturday Night Fever…donna summer and Robin Gibb, a sad few days for those who enjoyed the disco era…</p>

<p>I just saw it on Yahoo News. So sad!</p>

<p>I am so sad about this. Wonderful artist.</p>

<p>Just read this. RIP Robin.</p>

<p>I remember when “New York Mining Disaster 1941” came out when I was in high school. The sound was so different and the Bee Gees rose all the way up the ladder to the top.</p>

<p>What really is pathetic is a Whitney Houston thread got all kinds of replies, and she was a train wreck, and Robin Gobb carried no such baggage</p>

<p>Thank you for the music. R.I.P.</p>

<p>RIP Robin…thank you for being part of my life with your beautiful music</p>

<p>The Gibbs brothers are so special; I think the first song I remember was, “How can you mend a broken heart” which would play continually in my mind; my favorite is “Nights on Broadway” and I loved the way the brothers blended their voices. Never did like Staying Alive or Night Fever - preferred their classic style. Robin and his brothers were one of the greatest acts in my generation. Thank you gentlemen.</p>

<p>I loved their classics as well. Vividly remember listening to I Started a Joke on the radio when I was little. Robin’s voice was so unique, and I loved all of his songs.</p>

<p>My heart goes out to Barry, the last of the brothers. He was so crushed by Andy’s death, and although he and Robin had a lot of “history” together, I know this loss will be even harder on him.</p>

<p>So sad, to lose Robin Gibb and Donna Summer just a few days apart.</p>

12

<p>I really liked the original Bee Gees. Never took to their re-incarnation as disco (but then I’m not a disco fan.)</p>

<p>Regardless, his passing is sad. Been lots of good musicians lost too young lately.</p>

<p>I think the difference between Robin Gibbs’ death & Whitney Houston is hers was unexpective and a huge fall, while his cancer had been widely reported and his death expected. What’s most shocking is that 3 of the 4 of the BeeGees are gone - all too young.</p>
