When Robin Gibb passed away in May of 2012, the Australian and British music scenes mourned the loss of an icon and a third of one of the most beloved trios of all time – The Bee Gees. After all, it’s rather difficult to navigate the genre of disco without stumbling upon countless hits from the band, or even the pop-rock scene of the late ‘60s and early ‘70s. When word got around that the eldest brother and owner of that high-pitched falsetto was setting out on his own solo tour – some of the first shows since the death of his third and last remaining brother – we were intrigued as to what to expect. It would no doubt be an emotional evening, but how would Gibb tackle the songs made famous by a three-part harmony? Last Friday, we found out.
Supported by his son and a live band, the legendary Barry Gibb kicked off his Mythology Tour with an amazing show at the Sydney Entertainment Centre. Jason Li was there to catch all the action!
