Andy Gibb
Andrew Roy Gibb (5 March 1958 - 10 March 1988) was one of the world's biggest singers for a short period in the 1970s. While his older brothers the Bee Gees found international fame before him, he managed to carve himself a solo career of his own. However, he struggled with personal issues throughout his life, and passed away at a young age, making us wonder what could have been for the youngest Gibb brother. Andy Gibb was performing and making music by the time he was 20 years old, and it was virtually impossible to break away from his brothers shadows when older brother Barry wrote 90% of his songs, and the Bee Gees sang back up vocals on half of his songs. Andy got it all too fast, and his life was intermingled with years of depression that he tried to stay away with booze, drugs and women.
On March 10th, 1988 Andy died at the John Radcliff hospital in Oxford, England from myocarditis, (an inflammation of the heart muscle caused by a viral infection). Later on the Gibb family heard that Andy had been suffering from heart problems already for a while before he died but he never told anyone about it. He was buried at Forest Lawn - Hollywood Hills on March 21st. Shortly after his death the Andy Gibb Memorial Foundation was started in his honour.
