Bee Gees

Robin Gibb ♦ Maurice Gibb

Gotta Start Somewhere...

Australian Stars

Born in the UK, but raised down under, the brothers Gibb were big stars there. Two albums and a bunch of singles released in Australia and New Zealand. See them at Discogs or 45Cat. Both albums (and singles) eventually released stateside (in pieces) as Rare, Precious And Beautiful (Vol 1 - 11/68Volume One
BB and Vol 2 - 2/70Volume Two
BB). Their career took off when they returned to England in '67.
