When all is said and done 1975 was my favorite year out of all the decades in New York City. This was that year's soundtrack. Nights on Broadway. Les nuits blanche. White nights.
Robin Gibb, one-third of the Bee Gees, died Sunday after a long battle with cancer, his spokesperson has confirmed via a statement. Gibb was 62 years old.

Years ago Andy died very young, not sure what year it was though. The group would have been Robin, Maurice, Barry and Andy.
They were some powerhouse of a of music. Some great memories.
Stayin Alive. . . .
Andy (with, as I recall, the support of his older brothers) launched a promising solo career and became an instant teeny-bopper heartthrob to girls in my kid sister's age group. (She was high school class of '79).
I can't remember how Andy died, but I think it might have been drug related.
Yes -- a lot of great memories, and great music.
