Maurice Ernst Gibb was a British singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and a member of the British rock-pop group ‘Bee Gees’. His brothers, Barry and Robin were also members of the same band. Maurice played many instruments for the band and they became one of the most successful musical groups ever. Apart from earning name and fame, the band also bagged several honours. His family was a musical one; his father Hugh Gibb used to be a popular musician back in his times. Born in Isle of Man, then starting their career in Australia, the three brothers moved back to London in the late 60s, in order to become a part of the thriving music scene there and eventually, they became popular among the masses with hits such as ‘New York Mining Disaster 1941’ in 1967 and sometime later, their first effort at bringing out a fully fledged album became successful when ‘Bee Gees First: The Album’ reached the top 10 on charts in both the UK and the USA. Seeing ups and downs throughout their career, the band became the epitome of commercially successful but critically average musicians. Maurice tried creating a solo album when he had a fall out with his brothers, but it didn’t pan out well. Maurice died at the age of 53 due to heart attack which occurred during an intestinal surgery.
