The Bee Gees will be honored with a two-hour TV special on CBS, Stayin’ Alive: A Grammy Salute to the Music of the Bee Gees. Barry Gibb, the surviving brother of the trio, will perform as will musicians John Legend, Stevie Wonder, Celine Dion, Pentatonix, Ed Sheeran and Keith Urban, among others.
The eight-time Grammy Award-winning Bee Gees are known for being prolific songwriters — they are second only to John Lennon and Paul McCartney as “the most successful songwriting unit in British popular music.” Many have recorded songs written by the Bee Gees — but they also released 22 studio albums of their own (see list below) and that doesn’t even include the soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever. Stayin’ Alive: A Grammy Salute to the Music of the Bee Gees will air Sunday, April 16 at 8pm on CBS.
