Alongside his work with the Bee Gees, Gibb also had hits with Barbra Streisand and wrote hit songs for Dionne Warwick, Celine Dion, Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton and Diana Ross.

The Bee Gees’ songs have been recorded by everyone from Roy Orbison to Michael Jackson, Eric Clapton, Destiny’s Child, Michael Buble, Elton John, Tom Jones, Janis Joplin, Olivia Newton-John, Elvis Presley, Nina Simone, Rod Stewart and Tina Turner.
