Andy Gibb

His body was brought back to Los Angeles, California for interrment in Forest Lawn - Hollywood Hills Cemetery. Singles. Andy Gibb died at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford, England, of heart failure. Albums. After a brief affair with the actress Victoria Principal, his career began to wane, and the use of drugs, especially cocaine, took its toll on his health. He succumbed to a stroke on December 23, 1994 (age 48). He soon followed it up with "Shadow Dancing" (the only Top Ten hit written by all four performing Gibb brothers), and for a brief period was one of the world's top pop stars, achieving almost immediate success in both the USA and UK. Carollo and Dennison faded into the category of "Where are they now?", but Hamilton continued writing songs with his wife, Ann, throughout the eighties.

In 1977, he had his first major hit, "I Just Want to Be Your Everything", a song written by his brother Barry. A few minor singles followed (including "Winners and Losers"), but in 1976, the trio disbanded and went their separate ways. They had one child before he left her in 1978, his work and family commitments having come between them. The next year, the band decided to take a chance and changed their group name to Hamilton, Joe Frank & Dennison. In 1976, he married his girlfriend, Kim, in Sydney, Australia. In 1975, they had their first US Top 40 hit in four years - a soft-rock ballad called "Fallin' in Love"; this song proved to be even bigger than their last Top 40 hit, reaching US #1, and became their first (and only) song to chart in the UK; it also gave them their second gold record. All of his singles released hit the number one spot simultaneously. Soon, they left Dunhill and signed with Playboy Records in the mid-seventies.

Instead, he embarked on a successful solo career. The trio continued to record and perform with very little success. The idea of his joining the Bee Gees was often mooted, but the age gap between him and his elder brothers made this difficult to achieve. Although the remaining two members found a replacement in Alan Dennison, they did not even change their group name! It is believed that the members thought it would be foolish to jeopardize the small recognition that the struggling band had had. He was born Andrew Roy Gibb in Manchester, England, to Hugh and Barbra Gibb, and began performing while still a child, performing in bars in Australia and Spain at only 15 years of age. In 1973, Reynolds left the band to join another band called Shango. Andy Gibb (5 March 1958 - 10 March 1988) was a British singer and teen idol, and the younger brother of Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb, also know as the famous Bee Gees. A series of follow-up singles proved to be unsuccessful.

In 1971, their first two singles "Annabella" and "Daisy Mae" were minor hits, but their third single "Don't Pull Your Love (Out)" was an instant smash climbing up to US #4 and going gold. The band signed with Dunhill Records in 1970. Inspired by the AM rock music of Three Dog Night, the three men quit their jobs as studio musicians at the turn of the decade to form their own band. They recorded with the T-Bones from 1964 to 1966.

They met when they took part in a studio instrumental group called the T-Bones. Dan Hamilton, Joe Frank Carollo, and Tommy Reynolds began their careers as session musicians. Members were guitarist Dan Hamilton, bassist Joe Frank Carollo, and drummer Tommy Reynolds. Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds was an AM soft rock trio from Los Angeles.
