Fact #144720

When:

Short story:

The ship Fairsky, whose passengers include teenage pop hopefuls The Bee Gees and their parents, docks in Southampton, England, UK, Europe.

Full article:

Barry Gibb (Bee Gees) : So we reach England and what happens when we arrive? The first people we meet coming off the ship is another rock group who advised us to go back. We talked with them awhile and they told us The Walker Brothers were fading and Eric Clapton was rising and they really tried to convince us not to try to make it in England. But that gave us the added incentive to give it a go. We had sent tapes ahead before we left Australia and had hopes that someone who heard them would contact us.
