- Began playing at tourist clubs around Spain's coastal Island of Ibiza, and later back in his homeland of the Isle of Man, as a young teen.
- Born in Manchester, England, to Hugh and Barbara Gibb, but was raised in Australia, moving there when he was six months old. The family settled in Redcliffe, Queensland, near Brisbane.
- The idea of his joining the Bee Gees was often suggested, but the age gap between him and his elder brothers (more than 11 years younger than Barry, slightly more than eight years younger than twins Robin and Maurice) made this impossible.
- Began recording a series of his own compositions, one of which was released as a single. "Words and Music" would eventually reach the Top Five on the Sydney music charts in 1976.
- Separated from his wife by the time daughter Peta was born, and divorced later that year, he reportedly only met his daughter once in 1981. Peta grew up as Peta J. Reeder-Gibb and breeds Staffordshire Bull Terriers and judges dog shows in New South Wales, Australia.
