The final solo album of the legendary Robin Gibb is set for release on September 26 and you can have an exclusive listen to his song Days Of Wine And Roses right here!
The album, entitled 50 St. Catherine’s Drive (the address of the home Gibb was born in) has been compiled by his wife Dwina Gibb and son RJ Gibb and is a sometimes autobiographical collection of songs the Bee Gee's star recorded between 2006 and 2008 but never released.
Speaking of the final track on the album, Sydney, Dwina said, "Robin composed this late at night, in August 2011, at our home, The Prebendal. He used the bedroom keyboards and then Garageband on an iPad. He wished to finish this song in a studio with Barry, for a new album he hoped they would record together, but his health prevented this.
"He missed his twin brother Maurice who had passed away; but when he closed his eyes, the three young brothers were back in Sydney, Australia, happy together with their dreams and hopes for the future. Their future creations of course affected the world. This fragment of song is poignant, wistful, beautiful and unfinished. It belongs on this album as one of his last works. He cried when he wrote it, and I wept when I heard it."
