A special tribute album released today, Father's Day features the children of Bee Gees brothers Barry, Robin, Maurice and younger brother Andy Gibb singing the hits.
Seven cousins formed a partnership a year ago, named The Gibb Collective, whose eponymous album features new spins on Stayin' Alive, How Deep Is Your Love and many more Bee Gees hits.
Musician Robin-John Gibb is the son of Robin who died of cancer in 2012. "I was happy to be part of it, " he declares, as reported by Mail Online. "It shows the musical legacy of the family is still strong."
Adam Gibb's father Maurice died in 2003. "To have family all over the world, all of us coming together to make this special album for our fathers, it's an honour, " declares Adam.
The Gibb Collective recorded their individual parts in diverse locations - Sydney, Ohio, London and Los Angeles - with the segments later blended together in a studio in the USA.
"The record is a poignant tribute to their fathers' legacy, " says Michael Garbutt who was once Robin Gibb's manager.
"Each of the children has music in their blood and when fans hear the harmonizing they will get goose bumps. The kids have put their own spin on their fathers' classic songs but there is no doubt that talent runs in the family."
"Everyone has done some pretty interesting and unique interpretations of the material, " declares Stephen, the son of the only surviving Bee Gee, Barry.
The Bee Gees sold more than 220 million records worldwide, outsold only by The Beatles, Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney.
Andy Gibb was not a Bee Gees but a singer in his own right. He died in 1988, at 30 years of age, having suffered years of drug abuse. Barry Gibb released his first solo album in 2016, entitled In the Now.
