- A couple of weeks ago, on April 20, 2021, singer Les McKeown of the Bay City Rollers died. McKeown was born on 12 November 1955, Edinburgh, Scotland). To commemorate him, we publish this video of one of the Rollers biggest hits.
The Bay City Rollers are a Scottish pop rock band known for their worldwide teen idol popularity in the 1970s. They have been called the "tartan teen sensations from Edinburgh" and "the first of many acts heralded as the 'biggest group since the Beatles'".
The group's line-up had many changes over the years, but the classic line-up during its heyday included guitarists Eric Faulkner and Stuart Wood, singer Les McKeown, bassist Alan Longmuir, and drummer Derek Longmuir. The current lineup (since 2018) includes original guitarist Stuart "Woody" Wood, singer Ian Thomson, bassist Marcus Cordock, and drummer Jamie McGrory.
The Bay City Rollers have sold 120 million records worldwide.

Sweet Ian ❤️ Stole my 15 year old heart back then! Rest in peace💔
R.I.P. Alan Longmuir (1947-2018), Ian Mitchell (1958-2020), and Les McKeown (1955-2021). Three legends of rock-and-roll.
Yes, I agree fully.
YES!
Who knew that faking your music, lip syncing and not even playing your instruments, could be so bad for your health.
@@nealm6764 be careful…the scenario you just described was the success formula for a venue known as MTV.
now that these 3 are gone...i somehow feel guil;ty for not admitting my love for them as musicians when they were on top or admitting how much i really loved thier music.Shame on me
I'll miss them forever been with them long time
My grandmother and I would watch the Bay City Rollers every Saturday morning on television. I still have some of their records.
I have their albums too. Do you remember the name of the show they were on, on Saturdays? For the life of me I can't remember.
One of my favorite songs 🥀R.I.P🥀🖤Thank you for sharing!
"Daer mama, papa, hey your boy is NOT doing fine anymore..."
I loved Les very much.
Requiescat in pace.
I first heard the music of The Bay City Rollers in 1975 in December age 19 ! I got the record album that had the song Saturday Night ! I got that record album for Christmas of 1975 !
R.I.P. Les. How I loved you when I was ten years old! Thank you for all the golden memories.
This song was always my favorite. I use to listen to this song all day. Great music to the bay city rollers🎸🎸💖💖💖😊😊😊😉😉👍👍👍
Oh yeah! Just what I needed! Love, love, love, the Rollers! ❤❤❤❤
I know the band was geared towards teeny bopper girls but even I as a male back then liked this song when it was on the radio/charts.
My older, more sophisticated cousin introduced me to them when I was 10 yrs old. I instantly fell in love with
Eric. My musical taste has since expanded and evolved but my God they are as good as I had remembered.
Eric was soooooo good looking! I still got butterflies watching this now at 52 years old!!
They are REALLY good!! Still annoys me they weren’t more respected as musicians.
Wonderfull words.
Eric was my fave too!!! So dreamy with his dark hair and blue eyes. :}
Love em all!!!! Seen em live in Anaheim CA USA in 1976 live!!! Will never forget it!!!! Yup!!!!! Am so very much glad that I did!!!!!
Remember my friend's older sister was in high-school and turned us onto the BCR. Loved the music at 8 years old. They were just cool then. Her bedroom was adorned with their posters and teen beat magazines. Great times listening to them and hanging out by the pool 👍💯👍😎 music was great then and still holds up now.
love them always will x The lovely 'Les' 'Ian' and Alan RIP x
We lost 3 beautiful legends . I was a big fan back in the day .
Sweet memories
Just so love this song. RIP Les.
LES!!!!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Love this time of pop music
Rest In Peace Les McKeown. You broke a lot of hearts in the 70s and upon your passing. A true pop idol.
I hope you know that he never existed!
I agree fully. He was a Pop Star and very interesting 4 girls & boys also!
@@maggiemae7539 a joke, a fake what U write.
Yes, he did break a lot of hearts-mine included. He was real-human. He experienced a great deal of trauma in his life, and hardship. Despite all appearances to the contrary, he had little self-esteem. Much of his trauma and demons plagued him throughout his life pre-, post-Rollers. Understanding him as a real person, and as an adult myself, I think I love him even more. I certainly respect him.
I dont care who says what....Derek's Drumming carried this Band....bet it
R.I.P. Les McKeown... 😢
😢
Les McKeown is the best.
Yes. That was a great singer!!! RIP LESLEY. Greetings from Mülheim in Germany to Edinburgh...
😢😢😢😢
I had this album. I think this is first time I've heard this song in 40 years. Holds up pretty well.

タータンチェックとadidasのバッシュ―、それとジーンズの上のボタンを外す。
全て真似したかったけど、当時はadidasのバッシュ―は日本には流通してない？
あっても手が出なかったかな。
いいなぁ
Greetings from cologne Claudia
There goes les putting Eric in the dark again and no camera time no wonder they argued.
Bay City Rollers are teen rock. One personality of a rock station said "Money Honey" was legitimate rock song.
That was a good one. They actually had some decent rock sings towards their later years. Not a total fluff band.
Still haven’t received my rock n roll love letter 💌😢
忘れてる所もあるので、英語でOKなので
リリックおなしゃーす！
xxxxx
Those pants?🧨
There some weird pickups in Eric`s Strat.
Looks like Gibson les paul pickups
