Bee Gees’ lone surviving founder, Barry Gibb, has actually appeared on Jimmy Fallon’s talk show before — sorta. Whenever Justin Timberlake has hosted or guested on Saturday Night Live over the last decade, it usually included Fallon-led bit “The Barry Gibb Talk Show”. For the Christmas special, the real Barry Gibb made a cameo, despite Fallon’s less-than-flattering portrayal.
Last night, Gibb stopped by Fallon’s real talk show. They talked about Fallon’s parody and sang an Everly Brothers song together before Gibbs hit the stage for a performance of the Bee Gees classic “You Should Be Dancing” with help from The Roots. Watch the replay below.

Gibb will be heading out on his “Mythology: The Tour Live” six-gig jaunt in May. Celebrating the music of The Bee Gees, Gibb will be joined by his son, Stephen, and his niece Samantha, whose father was founding Bee Gee Maurice Gibb. Maurice died in 2003, and his twin brother, Robin, passed in 2012. See the full “Mythology” schedule below.
