The Bee Gees
Appearing on Beat Club 1968

I Gotta Get a Message to You
#8 in 1968


 The Bee Gees were a singing trio of brothers — Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb — that became one of the most successful musical acts of all time. The group's name is derived from the initials "B.G.", primarily standing for "The Brothers Gibb." [1] The Bee Gees added the second "E" to the "Bee" to be next to The Beatles in music stores. Maurice, who had been the musical director of the Bee Gees during their final years as a group, died suddenly on January 12, 2003, from a strangulated intestine. Initially, his surviving brothers announced that they intended to carry on the name "Bee Gees" in his memory. But as time passed they decided to retire the group name, leaving it to represent the three brothers together. The Bee Gees were inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997
