[@beeharbour]

Well, there are plenty of videos of the Bee Gees lip-synching (or miming) on KZbin because that was simply how things were done on most , if not all, television variety shows back in the day. It may still be done for TV but there really aren't many variety shows left. This would not have been their choice but it certainly would have been what they expected. It was done for a number of reasons having nothing to do with an act's abilities but rather time, consistency and other production matters. One of the reasons "The Midnight Special" was such a big deal when it came along was that all performances really were "Live". The Bee Gees always did sound great when they performed on that show and at their concerts. It was just a fact of the entertainment business that if you wanted to promote your new single or album on a show with any kind of an audience, you were going to have to lip-sync. They were amazing, indeed, for always sounding as good live as on their records which was very much not the case with many of their contemporaries. I went to some concerts that would have been tough to endure had I not been high.

The BeeGees had several hit songs in the 1960's and to say they only became well known after Saturday Night Fever ignores the dozens of songs they had on the radio during the previous 15 years. They also had a lot of hits sung by other people such as Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers.

You cannot put the Bee Gees into any one category. They could play them all. And they did so from 1958 through early 2000s. The Beatles couldn't even keep it together for 8 years (1962 - 1970). They wrote some good ones for sure, but nothing close to the quality of the Bee Gees whose lyrics are among the most beautiful ever written, and whose harmonies are better than any other singers. And the sheer volume of their catalog of songs. The Bee Gees deserve the top spot now and forever, and did not get the credit they deserved. Tragic new details?

I did manage one back in the early 90s I think it was, in Perth WA where I live. They were at the Entertainment Centre then but it was pulled down years later as the seating was badly placed in certain areas such as at the side where you couldn't see the stage properly. Most of the time they didn't use those seats because of that. They built the Optus Stadium in its place. I think the concert I saw was the Australia One for All '89. I have it on DVD for a good job as I can only remember bits of the actual concert now. It was $20 for a program which was quite dear then. I got tickets for I and my daughter for Barry's concert doing his Oz tour after his brothers had gone, actually got them in the post, but it was then cancelled due to it was said, his manager getting him too much work and with Perth being so much further away then the other states. They said it wouldn't be rescheduled. We had our money back in 2wks, even the insurance money of nearly $8 for the tickets which it said in the rules that you don't get back, not even for a cancellation. Whether they didn't know or decided to take pity on us I don't know. This was with Ticket Master or TickeTek as I forget which. I still have the tickets filed away for the show that I didn't get to go to! We paid over $200 for them as we wanted really good seats. Artistes usually try to reschedule as they don't like to disappoint fans. He was early 70s I think then. (coming up for 76yrs on Sept 1st as I am on Aug 4th. Ah well. Don't suppose he will get to Perth now. I can't go over to the other states either, which is what people would have to try and do with the cancellation.

At that point they had to do surgery although his cardiac status was unstable because he would have died anyway. By then it was a no win situation. The brothers said in an interview the next day that it was "questionable" that they did surgery during a heart attack. They had to. He wouldn't have died if they diagnosed him correctly sooner.

He was not diagnosed properly and the bowel obstruction affected his cardiac status by blocking the blood flow to the intestine causing a heart attack which occurred before his surgery. His bowel did not rupture after surgery as the video states and during surgery they removed the necrotic (dead) part and did a re-anastomosis. They operated during his cardiac arrest because he would have died anyway. This video is inaccurate in many ways. Malpractice.

[@susieq9801]

@@kathyharmon2093 - Mo's volvulus was a congenital condition and it had nothing to do with his alcoholism from which he recovered well over a decade before. None of the Gibbs except Andy used the very dangerous drugs like cocaine or heroine. They did briefly use amphetamines (which were legal and readily prescribed at the time by physicians) in order to pull all nighters for concerts and composing. In fact, most performers at that time used amphetamines. My doctor prescribed them for me because I did 12 hour night shifts in a hospital but they made me so jumpy that I threw them out after a week. Doctors also prescribed them as a weight loss pill. BTW, amphetamines are NOT "meth" as some people try to say. Dexadrine and benzadrine are not meth but can be very addicting to some people. One thing against Mo was he was still a smoker whereas Robin and Barry both quit cigarettes long before. The surgeon likely wasn't a quack but whoever failed to diagnose him in the first place was. It should have been an easy condition to diagnose.

A constricted intestinal hernia isn't the same thing but both are agonizingly painful. Mo had a volvulus where the bowel twisted on itself. The source is congenital (they often have an extra loop of bowel) but sometimes doesn't appear until adulthood. Robin had the same thing a couple of years later and his was almost missed as well. It was only because of his twin's death that his was recognized. An intestinal hernia occurs when the bowel protrudes through a weak abdominal muscle and gets pinched. Glad you recovered and sorry for your suffering (and his). Mo's death was malpractice. If diagnosed properly he could have been alive today.

[@allisons3663]

There is actually nothing new here regarding Maurice's death. His initial emergency was a congenital twisted intestine which was followed by a fatal heart attack during recovery. The fact that the equipment needed to help save Maurice was not immediately available is something that is questionable and hopefully the hospital made the necessary changes.

[@susieq9801]

The heart attack occurred due to impaired blood supply caused by the twisted bowel. The heart attack came first (he did have preexisting 60% blockage of his cardiac arteries on post mortem) and they had to rush him to surgery in critical condition. By that time it was almost a no win situation. All floors have "crash carts" for cardiac arrests which are immediately available! I can assure you there was likely no 10 minute delay. The combination of misdiagnosis, the delayed surgery and surgical intervention while in cardiac compromise resulted in his death. His death was due to misdiagnosis. We all die of "cardiac arrest" whether we're shot, hit by a bus or have a heart attack. His second fatal cardiac arrest was due to his coronary and cardiogenic shock and also possibly septic shock from the bowel blockage. What the brothers said was "questionable" was taking him to surgery during a cardiac arrest. They had no choice.

[@vampyre4me]

@@susieq9801 I remember very well an interview in which Robin said there was no crash cart on the floor where Maurice was recovering which caused a delay in getting help during the cardiac arrest. What you are saying would seem to contradict what Robin himself said. Just curious: where did you get all this info from?

[@susieq9801]

@@vampyre4me - Be curious no longer. I was a Registered Nurse in ICU and the ER for 40 years and was a resuscitation nurse who answered cardiac arrest calls. Crash carts were mandatory on EVERY floor of the hospital, even floors like maternity where arrests seldom occur. Meanwhile, before I and any available MD's would arrive, the floor staff themselves would not stand around wringing their hands but would commence resuscitation procedures themselves. The only reason for myself or MD's to attend was to direct the resuscitation via drugs and other advanced procedures of which only they were capable. Any available MD as well as the ER MD (who was always in house) attend immediately, on the run. I am contradicting Robin but we must remember he never was a medical professional and when in a distraught state family look for any avenue to find someone to blame. My heart bleeds for the loss of his twin. Both Barry and Robin also said it was "questionable" taking him to surgery post cardiac arrest. That means his coronary occurred before surgery. The problem was they did not realize there was no other choice. Maurice's post mortem indicated he did have preexisting cardiac arterial compromise. His post surgical arrest was due to his body's systemic failure. The body cannot tolerate such a massive assault. The bowel did not rupture post operatively either because he had a jejunostomy.

[@vampyre4me]

@@susieq9801 thank you for that. I figured you must have a medical background but I still am curious how you know so much about the chain of events. Are you putting 2 an 2 together or were you actually there? 😉 You have referred to an autopsy report more than once as well - was that made public? I'm not attacking you honestly? Just genuinely curious where you learned all this.

[@susieq9801]

@@vampyre4me - No problem. Thank God I was not there. For anyone who had been, giving details would be a breach of confidentiality. Some information about his death, like the 60% coronary arterial blockage, was apparently made public (I don't know if by the family or the hospital). I did see that info in several places and know it was in newspapers at the time, like the Florida Sun Sentinel. Re the sequence of events, as you said yourself, Barry and Robin were interviewed the next day. With Robin present Barry said, his exact words, "It was questionable that they had to operate during the shock of cardiac arrest". That meant the cardiac arrest was prior to surgery. The bowel obstruction must have reached a critical state or they would not have operated under those horrendous conditions. The problem is he should have been diagnosed in time but was not. When the bowel twists the circulation to it is blocked. The bowel is quite vascular so blood was trapped causing death of the bowel and cardiogenic shock which has the same effect as a hemorrhage. The blood is there but taken out of circulation. Pain could also have been a factor in his arrest. Poor Mo must have had excruciating pain. I just think it sucks that he was misdiagnosed. The condition could have been hinted at by auscultation of bowel sounds (or lack of them), rigidity of the abdomen and the severe pain and he could have had a CT or other diagnostic imaging or even exploratory surgery. Mo's loss was tragic and unnecessary. If it can be considered that anything good came of it, he saved his twin's life when they realized Robin had the same thing in 2010.

[@rozchristopherson648]

@@dashriprock8596 I will preface my remarks by saying that I went to law school. Years ago, my mother went to a nursing home to recuperate after open heart surgery. She was only to spend 3-4 weeks there for physical therapy. I placed her in a nursing home close to my home and job so that I could eat lunch with her by walking over from my job at lunchtime and then visiting after work until visiting hours ended. I also spent all day on the weekends until visiting hour were over. Nevertheless, my mother developed a pressure sore or "bed sore" the size of a golf ball. I also discovered that unless I fed my mother, she was not being fed although her chart had doctor's orders for her to receive assistance with feeding. The bed sore was concealed from me and there was an attempt to prevent me from taking my mother out of the facility when I noticed her deterioration. They even tried to get me to sign her in as a permanent resident of the nursing home. I finally got her back to the hospital where the bed sore was detected. By then it was infected. My mother died after one week in the hospital, having spent only 3 weeks in the nursing home. I sued the nursing home for neglect and won. Pressure sores can be prevented if the patient is turned every 2-4 hours. Staff turned my mother while I was there but not overnight when I could not be present. Also, she received little nutrition since she was not being fed properly and that compromised her skin as well. So ultimately, I got justice. But that does not mean it was not my mother's time to go. We cannot all die in our sleep peacefully. Some people are going to die in tragic accidents. Some are going to be killed, etc. There are many ways to die. And if someone is responsible for causing a death, then they must be brought to justice whether in criminal or civil court. They would be the "but-for" cause, which is a legal term. But for the actions of X, Y would not have died. But even in those terms it is by a preponderance of the evidence in civil court or beyond a reasonable doubt in criminal court. But there are instances where the same set of facts did not lead to death and a person survives when ALL EVIDNECE indicates that they should not have survived. So we are not in control over life and death 100%. There are other forces involved. Does that mean we hold no one responsible when they have violated the law. No !!! A death certificate lists "cause of death." There are many causes. A person has cancer and lives while another with the same cancer dies. We cannot determine in advance who will live and who will die. People have tried to commit suicide and lived. Holding people responsible for causing a death is necessary. It is also necessary to realize that death is going to occur some way, somehow, whether we like it or not. PS I think you should not try and use KZbin as a means of making yourself feel superior to others by putting another person down.. You should not go around calling people stupid when you know nothing about their lives. That makes you stupid.

[@denniseudela411]

Mo had a congenital defect called Malrotated Intestine or twisted intestine which was the true cause of his pain. However, his organs were already starting to shut down before surgery and a good length of his intestine was needed to be removed as it already became poisoned & necrotic from no circulation at the level of the twist. This was actually complicated by a cardiac arrest while he seems to be recovering. There was not much the MDs could do. On the other side, experts believe if Mo has survived the ordeal, he would've been in pain & misery the rest of his life due to the effects of the twisting and would've affected other organs of his body. I believe Yvonne saw the heroic effort of the medical & staff team of the hosp who took care of Mo and saw no negligence on their part. The good thing that came out here was that since they now discovered this twisting defect on Mo, since Robin is a twin, chances are he also has this. And sure enough he did. They immediately performed the corrective surgery needed and Robin was saved from suffering with the same fate. However, his CA was another story later on. At least his life was prolonged enough for him to do his solo world tours.

[@susieq9801]

You're right! The video is very inaccurate. In fact his cardiac arrest was before/during surgery but they had to operate or he was doomed. If diagnosed and operated on immediately he could have healed relatively well but the misdiagnosis led to his cardiac arrest and operating on someone in that state is a no win. He did die of cardiac arrest but we ALL die of cardiac arrest. The second and fatal arrest was due to cardiogenic and septic shock post operatively. At least he lived long enough to have his family with him. In death, he did save his twin for a while.

@@CAEO416 - We know they were not identical twins. Pretty obvious.

In their case the fact that they were fraternal and not identical twins is irrelevant. Also, there is some belief that it can be genetic as non twins, simply siblings (even more than two siblings in a family) have developed the condition. It often does not manifest until adulthood. When Robin was sent home in 2010 to monitor his pain, his MD spoke with a friend about the case. He was a surgeon and when told Rob's FRATERNAL twin died of a twisted bowel, Robin was brought back immediately for surgery and .... surprise ... he had the identical condition. The point that they were siblings and in utero together was pertinent.

@@susieq9801 I was not aware of this. Thank you for sharing your knowledge on the subject. I only commented because when people find out I have a twin brother (I’m female) the first question I get asked is “are you identical twins?” He gets the same questions too.

@@CAEO416 - You're quite welcome. 😊 It was interesting that both Mo and Rob had the same condition but the surgeon clued in right away that it was a distinct possibility having been twins and he saved Robin's life. Rob would likely have met the same fate and died in a week or two. I even wondered if his being so thin much of his life was possibly related to his gastrointestinal anomaly. You are lucky to have a twin. It must have been an interesting experience (unless of course you don't like him!!! LOL). My favorites of the brothers were the twins and Rob in particular because he was, to put it politely, a rascal, and a very intelligent and witty one. They also seemed to have the reputed psychic connection often feeling aches and pains at the same time and Mo, although miles away when Rob was involved in the train crash at 17, said "Something has happened to Rob!" I think you can guess at my occupation. 😜 All the best to you AND your brother.

I have to confess that Robin was my all-time favorite Bee Gee.

We're happy to know that you love Robin! Which song of the group appealed to you the most?

I had a surgery in 2016 that caused a partial blockage of my intestine. I had to go back into the hospital in an emergency situation, and had to be there for 11 days until I was well enough to go home. SO I know you can recover from the blockage. but it does sound like he was not being watched closely enough. Too bad that happened the Bee gees were amazing. I didn't like the Disco era of music. My favorite time period for the Bee gees was the late '60s and the early 70s.🎉🎊

Hello 👋

A remarkable family! I will pray for Barry❤. It's pretty sad for him, I'm certain 😢. I will always love them 🤗💕

[@FactsVerse]

Absolutely, we feel the same way! Thank you for sharing your sentiments and for watching our content. What is your favorite Bee Gees song?

[@karievjy7542]

Preventable or not (and I think it could have been prevented), Maurice Gibb's passing was and still is something that saddens me. While he and his brothers were popular during the disco era. I love them more for the music they made and sang both before and after this time. I have a tape of the Bee Gees and, thanks to Music Choice on my TV and KZbin, I can hear the Bee Gees beautiful music whenever I want. Thank you for this video.

GREATEST music ever created! 🇺🇸

I don’t know how accurate this is, but I do know that his name is pronounced Morris.
