We remember Maurice Gibb (1949-2003)


Maurice Gibb of The Bee Gees died on this day in 2003.  It was a sudden death unlike Robin who battled cancer for over a year.  The news flash was a shock to say the least.

Maurice was known as the "Man in the middle".  He did not do a lot of lead vocals.  His contributions were the indispensable 3rd voice in the group's harmonies and arranging their hit songs.  He played bass, guitar, piano and organ.

We remember "It's just the way", one of Maurice Gibb's best lead vocals & "Toast and marmalade for tea", a song that Maurice produced for Tin Tin.
