For better or worse, The Bee Gees' music and image has long been
synonymous with the 1970s, and the career trajectory of brothers
Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb in that ten-year span meanders
between dizzying highs and devastating lows. The Bee Gees began
1970 as non-existent - bitterly split after succumbing to the
pressures and excesses of their first wave of international fame in
the latter part of the 1960s. By 1979, they were one of the most
successful music acts on the planet. In between, the brothers
crafted timeless works that defied genre, transcended societal
boundaries, and permeated generations of listeners. The Bee Gees
would go on to sell over 200 million records, making them among the
best-selling music artists of all time; they would be inducted into
the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Australian Recording Industry's
Hall of Fame, and the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and receive
lifetime achievement awards from the British Phonographic Industry,
the American Music Awards, World Music Awards and the Grammys.
According to Billboard magazine the Bee Gees are one of top three
most successful bands in their charts' history.
