Yes, it's all very sad. Go to this page and click on the 60's and you
can hear a bit of tron: http://www.beegeesonline.com

My dad introduced them at a concert in Omaha (was dj at WOW-AM). My
dad was always called "Morris" after Maurice because they look
identical. I just got off the phone and told my dad about his passing
which disturbed him greatly.

I always admired them for the impact they had on popular music. I
thought the earlier tunes were worth listening to.

We will miss you Maurice!
