Bees Gees and Steven Spielberg in talks to do tell all movie. Robin Gibb has confirmed that he and brother Barry Gibb are in dialogue for Spielberg to assure the history of the Brothers Gibb. Gibb also says that he has granted permission for the original Bee Gees recordings to be exploited in the movie.

The Gibbs were natural in England but the household moved to Brisbane, Australia when Barry, Maurice and Robin were children. Brother Andy Gibb was a child when the house left England. The Bee Gees made their first tv show in Brisbane in 1960 when Barry was 14-years old and the twins were 10. In 1963, the Bee Gees signed with Festival Records in Sydney and released three singles, but it wasn`t until 1965 when they had their first minor hit with `Wine and Women`. In 1965, Festival Records released their first album `The Bee Gees Sing and Play 14 Barry Gibb Songs`. Barry was 19, the twins were 15. In 1966, the brothers went back to England and on the journey (by boat) back, they received intelligence of their first figure one single when `Spicks and Specks` topped the Australian chart. In England, they met and sign with Robert Stigwood, another Aussie. They had their first UK hit in 1967 with `New York Mining Disaster 1941′. Before long, they broke into Us and appeared on The Ed Sullivan Appearance and Laughter In. Early US hits included `I`ve Gotta Get A Substance To You` and `I Started A Joke`. In the USA, Ahmet Ertegun hooked the Bees Gees up with producer Arif Mardin who changed their voice to R&B. Songs like `Jive Talking` and `Nights On Broadway` resonated with the American audience and they became major stars. The following album, `Children Of The Man` in 1976 made music history with the hit track `You Should Be Dancing`. It became the benchmark of the disco sound. Stigwood used the musical success and intent it about a movie. The movie was `Saturday Night Fever`. It made a star of John Travolta and made the Bee Gees the hottest musical act on the planet. The last Bee Gees album was `This Is Where I Came In` in 2001. On January 12, 2003, Maurice Gibb died suddenly from a heart attack and the Barry and Robin decided to never do again as The Bee Gees.
