Robin Gibb: 1949-2012

Robin Gibb performs in the park of Ledreborg Castle near Roskilde, Denmark, on Aug. 15, 2009. Gibb, who with his brothers Barry and Maurice performed as The Bee Gees, helped define the disco era with such dance floor classics as "Stayin' Alive," "Jive Talkin'," and "Night Fever" - catchy songs with falsetto vocals and a relentless beat that became familiar pop culture mainstays.

Gibb, 62, died Sunday, May 20, 2012, following a long battle with cancer and intestinal surgery, his family announced in a statement.
