    Robin Gibb's legacy as a vocalist and songwriter is monumental. As a core member of the Bee Gees, he helped create one of the best-selling discographies in history, with over 200 million records sold. His distinctive vibrato earned him praise as one of pop's great white soul voices. Individually, he was awarded a CBE and an honorary doctorate, and his songwriting was recognized with the BMI Icon Award. The Bee Gees' induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Songwriters Hall of Fame cements his place among music's elite.
