Ep. 154 - Andy Gibb
from Last Days · host TMZ
On March 10, 1988, Andy Gibb — the fresh-faced pop idol whose silky tenor and boyish charm made him one of the late 1970s’ biggest heartthrobs — died at the age of 30 from myocarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle worsened by years of cocaine abuse. As the youngest brother of Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees, Andy carved out a solo career that briefly rivaled the disco dynasty of his family, scoring three consecutive No. 1 hits on his first three songs released in the United States. His breezy blend of disco and soft pop, combined with a photogenic charisma that made him a staple of teen magazines and television appearances, turned him into a late-’70s sensation almost overnight.
