Tony Blair had jamming session with Barry Gibb where they wrote songs together and played Bee Gees’ hits
TONY Blair belted out Bee Gees classics at a jam with Sir Barry Gibb.
The ex-PM, 66, leapt at the invite to his longtime pal’s home studio.
They sang hits Stayin’ Alive, from John Travolta’s 1977 film Saturday Night Fever, and You Win Again.
As an Oxford student Mr Blair was a singer-guitarist in band Ugly Rumours and a source said: “He still harbours rock star fantasies and has always been a Bee Gees fan.”
“He also loves hanging around with celebrities, particularly musicians.”
“Barry has a studio in Buckinghamshire so Tony jumped at the offer to visit.”

“He is a pretty good musician but the thought of him singing How Deep Is Your Love to wife Cherie is pretty terrifying. In fact it could be a Tragedy . . . ”
Sir Barry, 73, also offered to host the Blairs at his Miami home, said the source.
Tony was still PM in 2006 when he and Cherie enjoyed a Florida hol with Barry’s late brother Robin and wife Dwina.
