Robin Gibb released a solo album called MAGNET after the tragic death of his brother Maurice in which he covered some Bee Gees classics and other non Gibb Brothers tunes. Sometime after his album came out he recorded a concert in 2004, according to the credits.

Robin Gibb has been my favorite Bee Gee since the first time I heard Massachusetts and I Started A Joke. He never had the stratospheric highs of his brothers and neither did Andy actually. What he did have was a plaintive, emotive power that kept his brothers anchored and a storytelling ability bar none as a Bee Gees songwriter.

The crowd was from all over Europe and they were having a super time and a great show was had theat day.

He had a well-tuned group of singers and one man joined him twice up front. Robin often took the group's songs down some to good effect and some songs weren't really his but he performed them for the audience and they roared and stood to show their approval.

I played the main program using the PLAY button as I don't know where the remote is right now (did not see the secondary programs).

I enjoyed it, it was an enjoyable concert.

I got it for $4.99 at the discount grocery I buy at and I have 4 other titles to review...

James Brown at Montreux 1981
Janet Jackson The Velvet Rope Tour
The Genesis Songbook......all three also $4.99 same place
Elton John-Tantrums And Tiaras (thrift store, still wrapped)

I bought his album Secret Agent back in 1984 and it has some good songs on it.

But getting Secret Agent on CD is another issue! I finally bought an import copy!

Thanks, I need to find this DVD. The Bee Gees were one of my initial favorite bands as a kid, they were productive since. So many incredible albums such as Trafalgar, Mr. Natural, To Whom it May Concern, Cucumber Castle (the record, not the movie).

Sadly Robin, who has been suffering health-wise, is in a coma.

Ignore the seeming broken link, it works as far as I can see.

Eagle Rock has a HUGE catalog that will knock you out, just look.

I heard in the last day that the non-digital Robin is awake and talking.

Dwina must have done a good job *Hi5*
