A Bee Gees Reunion

The Bee Gees were an Australian and British band comprising three brothers who emigrated from the Isle of Man during their childhood. They were one of the most successful musical acts of all time. All three Bee Gees – frequent lead vocalist Barry Gibb and his younger twin brothers, co-lead vocalist Robin Gibb and keyboardist/guitarist Maurice Gibb – were born on the Isle of Man in the 1940s. The group was successful for all of its forty years of recording music and, in the public's mind, they defined the sound of disco. They sang tight three-part harmonies that were natural and infectious, and their sound was instantly recognizable. Barry was notable for singing in an R&B falsetto on a number of songs. All three brothers co-wrote most of their songs, and they often said that they felt like they became 'one person' when they were writing. The group's name was retired when Maurice died in January 2003.

Recently the brothers showed a united front (seen above) as they collected the Ivor Novello statuette, symbolizing their acceptance into the Fellowship of the Ivor Novello Academy. "This is the highest British award you can get for songwriting," Robin told ET. "We've come together for this very important award." Barry agrees. "It's extremely special," he says. "It's about songwriting and being part of a fellowship."

Barry also made it clear that he and Robin are not only working out their professional but personal differences. "We've lost two brothers and we're not going to lose each other," he told ET backstage after accepting their award.

It's a historic meeting of the minds for the Grammy-winning team. After years of hard feelings, the estranged brothers reunited on stage in February for the first time since their brother MAURICE passed away.

They performed in a private concert to raise money for the Diabetes Research Institute at their annual Love and Hope event held at the Diplomat Hotel in Miami, FL. Among the hits the supergroup sang were "Staying Alive," "Massachusetts," "How Deep is Your Love" and a stunning tribute to Maurice: "Don't Forget to Remember.

But the reunion doesn't end there, and Barry says the brothers look forward to getting back together on stage to perform. "We're sort of rediscovering each other," he added. "Working together and as individuals."
