"The Rollers should be remembered for their glory days". Great quote, very true as they worked very hard. They had no-one to trust. R. I. P. Les, a talent never to be repeated.
I had severe anxiety in elementary school. I got teased a lot so I'd cry every morning. My Mom knew how much I loved The Bay City Rollers so she would put our Rock and Roll Love Letters album on to calm me down. We would dance together until the bus would come. I thanked her for that before she passed and I also thanked her for teaching me how to be a great Mother to my own children. I wish there was a way I could thank them too though, I might have been a fifth grade drop out without their music lol.
Their music saved my life too...happiest days of my teenage years, my heart would soar when I heard one of their songs on the radio. I hope they know just how much their music meant to us.

My heart goes out to everyone who loved the Bay City Rollers i and my sister we drove my mum and dad crazy asking for the tartan which the Bay City Rollers were we would sing to there songs god bless to you and all the families ❤️🙏😢😢xx
I had a tartan Bay City Rollers suit in the mid 70s, I was on 5 or 6 and can still remember everyone in primary school singing to the Rollers. Greatest boy band ever !
You on Spotify Ian !?!? Check out my profile & the Playlist you should love look at them ALL open.spotify.com/user/1122533510?si=kz566_PDRPeMJk_mYrgQuQ
Abba were never fashionable or cool but there songs stand alongside Beatles and rolling stones imo excellent rock n roll, timeless, VERY talented musicians and songwriters . Waterloo can be played as a rocking tune or bluesed up. Bcr were a bit wishy washy tbh. But that's the market they were aimed at.
B R I L L A N T Plus We're Still Taking About Them & All The Other Great Artists & Bands From Back In The Good Ole Day ........ Not Sure Anyone Will Remember The Rubbish Churned out These Days In 40 yrs Time !!
My guess is,they wouldn't have have been as big because they would have over saturated themselves and burned out very fast.When things take time and grow slowly,they tend to take hold stronger.I'm a first generation Rollers fan.I really like the Duncan period as well.Elevator is a GREAT powerpop album.
I’m 59 this year, I remember having the sweet on my side of the room with bay city rollers while my sister was in to Noddy holder on the other side. When we use to quarrel I would scribble on her posters of Noddy and Gary glitter haaahaaaa no regrets😅😊
I had every album they made. I will never forget how excited I was when I saw their first album in a big city record store. I could hardly get my money out of my purse I was shaking so much. Ahh loved these guys
Thank you for sharing this documentery. For me: The Bay City Rollers is one of the best band. Alan, Ian and Les. Never forget. Thank you: The Bay City Rollers for your great music.
Were we ever so young and carefree? I long for those days and watching the BCR, just brought it all back to me. I loved them. I loved their music. Thank you so much for this video!!!!
Maybe you were young and carefree...the lives of these poor young men was littered with verbal and sexual abuse, drugs, and suicide attempts. What a wonderful time.
At one point, I had 10,239 pictures on the walls of my room, at the same time. I know, because one time during a sleep over with my best friend, and fellow Rollermaniac, we took a red pen and numbered each picture. They ranged in size from huge double sized posters to the tiniest pictures cut from 16 or Tiger Beat. The Bay City Rollers WERE my youth.... and my dream is to one day, meet at least one of them to simply say, thank you.
I was lucky enough to meet Eric when he toured with other people but still called them the Bay City Rollers. They sang all the old Roller songs and we caught them in the parking lot afterwards. Got Eric's autograph and the chance to thank him. He was sweet and gracious.
I used to collect The bubblegum card pictures of the Rollers, Look in magazine used to have a poster of them every month. People forget how huge there were in 74-76.
Im the happiest person on earth because of The Bay City Rnollers!!!! Thank you Alan, Derek, Woody, Eric, Les, Ian, Pat and Duncan!!!!!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👆👆👆🤟🤟🤟👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Not a Rollers fan but a lifelong Motor racing fan. Will never forget the Radio 1 fun day at Mallory park, the Rollers came by helicopter landing on a small island in the middle of a lake on the infield. Racing had to be stopped as fans ran across the track in the middle of the race and many had to be rescued after jumping in and trying to swim across to the island, It was complete mayhem, never laughed so much in my life😂😂😂
My cousin used to babysit me as kid and she would crank the Bay City Rollers at full volume and let me do whatever I wanted until my parents came home. I have a soft spot for this band
Haha i used to babysit my wee cousins and play Duran Duran and the Sex Pistols till my auntie and uncle came home. They'd make pizza baguettes and let me crash on the sofa.

Best documentary I have seen on the Rollers. I was a rollermaniac and to this day, one of the most memorable things in my life was seeing them in concert. It was truly a dream come true. Thanks for stirring up great memories!
Sue Robinson Hi Sue, Great childhood memories for me.Life was so different back then. Their music will live for generations. Kind regards from Ireland Kate. 👱♀️💕
I just had a wonderful time watching this video. Smiling at all the footage and photos, singing along with the music. BCR was and still is my favorite group of all time. Their music is a part of me and will be forever. Thank you Les, Eric, Derek, Woody and (RIP) Alan for the wonderful music and fabulous memories.
Kathy Bessey glad you enjoyed it Kathy lots of BCR in here ( look at all my other yearly UK CHART playlists also you’ll be amazed ) if you are on Spotify!! open.spotify.com/user/1122533510/playlist/3ksz965zmaobU79X2sLV0l?si=QRG9EI3qSQGiOfktuMtGYg
Their popularity reached to rural America. I remember my big sister had their single Saturday night. I thought it was just the coolest thing. Thanks for the memories of better days.
Glad you enjoyed it Bob … these might bring back lots more great memories!! Definitely better days .. can’t get any worse than things seem to be these days ! But one thing we definitely had back then was endless great music to take our minds off any strife we mighta had unlike the kids of today !! If your like me I can go back to those moments in my life because of all the music I was listening to continually The U.K. & US were very similar charts,probably about 60% in similarity ! or there abouts , but all the cream ( popular stuff ) rose in both the charts on both sides of the Atlantic.. so you should enjoy & remember most of these !!! Although it’s amazing how many ppl do forget .. I have everything personally in my own music collection & library , I’m still collecting/discovering constantly too reading many books & mags on it all these days .. it became a sorta obsession from a kid but from the advent of the digital age I could exponentially get anything I desired. So lots of this now is me copying across my playlist & mixes for others to enjoy if they come across it. Everything in each yr is in chart entry order too so a late 60’s full 70’s & early 80’s music historical timeline of everything.. & all done eventually 1981 I’m about 2/3 the way through atm 1979 EVERY CHART HIT (All In Top 75 Weekly Chart Entry Order) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcpgFJC8P6awEQ3zPR1k07esz.html 1978 EVERY CHART HIT (All In Top 50 Weekly Chart Entry Order) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcpgAF5b_f7oq0HWeO-AZhq99.html 1977 EVERY CHART HIT (All In Top 50 Weekly Chart Entry Order) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcpjIz9L-Iu3f7dKL1AhYs3R8.html 1976 EVERY CHART HIT (All In Top 50 Weekly Chart Entry Order) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcpj3riek7_6jeobh8-8rPLe4.html 1975 EVERY CHART HIT (All In Top 50 Weekly Chart Entry Order) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcphrbPyiOhDbBXMvnVHWHny9.html 1974 EVERY CHART HIT (All In Top 50 Weekly Chart Entry Order) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcphuqH7QYq76bta1-Qcynn_-.html 1973 EVERY CHART HIT (All In Top 50 Weekly Chart Entry Order) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcpiOv78ntVws-hceYHK11hTU.html 1972 EVERY CHART HIT (All In Top 50 Weekly Chart Entry Order) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcpji_ftPX_vuFMCmnAfSh4rR.html 1971 EVERY CHART HIT (All In Top 50 Weekly Chart Entry Order) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcpi9qNJbKbDmY0Sbze6lwQqu.html 1970 EVERY CHART HIT (All In Top 50 Weekly Chart Entry Order) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcphv7Bsr4moeVzlB_vKmFq5j.html 1969 EVERY CHART HIT ( All In Weekly Top 50 Chart Entry Order ) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcphtKRhBWWgjE2T2tQGD28gc.html 1968 EVERY CHART HIT ( All In Weekly Top 50 Chart Entry Order ) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcpi3HrBBYudX0tUkm4b-F2K3.html&si=CmOoVcISs1Ybw55w 1980 EVERY CHART HIT ( All In Top 75 Weekly Chart Entry Order) th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcphfjcVulJ5jsP3oHslGjCuc.html 1981 CHART HITS ( Everything ..

Also from 1975-1979 they were the the Golden Boys of The White Teen Magazine Set who were in a Magazine called Tiger Beat (1965-Present). It was created by Lloyd Saxton who also hosted a popular Music Show. In 1971 Right On became the First Black Teen Magazine.
Also The Archies had a Song called Bang Shang A Lang, and in a Bugs Bunny Cartoon parodying Little Red Riding Hood The Big Bad Wolf told granny to go and he screamed shang a lang.
Me, l was a Glitterband fan, but boy did l admire The BayCityRollers. Great young men we should all be proud of. We are loosing them all so fast now, these wonderful, talented youngsters from the Seventies. For those of us left behind we should defend them all. Be the voices that some of them no longer have. Many of the seventies bands were ripped off. Keep their memories alive people, no matter how. RIP Alan Ian and Les. In fact l extend that to members of not only The BayCity Rollers but also members of The GlitterBand, Sweet and all other seventies bands that have lost members. Thanks one and all for the best memories ever. 😪
I keep there memories alive by just listening to all their stuff daily , with my personal music collection or a video online like right here on YT But I’ve also curated a few of my personal mixes & playlists to Spotify, about 250 so far , for anyone to listen to, even have the virtual every ever chart hit library of EVERYTHING at their fingertips to go to & find a moment in time & play the music that defined that moment , those choons that pinpoint specific times in our happy or even sad! historical memory , what we were doing at those times places we went & heard them, the friends we had .....

I will always defend my 1970's bands to the ends of the Earth! I get so much flack from friends about my obsession with 70's artists, many of whom are given a bad rap, but I've never cared. I know they're wrong. Also, pop music requires talent and drive just like any other genre. I think people forget how grueling the entertainment industry is on the mind, body and soul. It's easy to be dismissive if you've never been a part of it or privy to the behind the scenes.
It really puts things into perspective once you reach a certain age where you start watching members of all the bands you grew up listening to die on a frequent basis. I’m pushing 60, was just a little kid when I first got into the Rollers, and already there are 3 Rollers gone. I’ve been a huge Ramones fan for almost as long, and that entire band has passed, at least all the original members. Then I think about all the original 50’s rockers, who are now *ALL* gone since Jerry Lee passed away last year. It won’t be much longer before all the 60’s rockers have left us, and soon after, the 70’s. Time is a cruel bitch.
Woo hoo! Best band of my teenage years, bought the CD and still listen to them… Loved the drummer!!! Thank you Derek for your groove that made me dance🥁💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼🙌🥰🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Well done & thank you for uploading this BBC documentary -- it wasn't broadcast in the U.S., so I very much appreciate it. As a young teen, I enjoyed the BCR but wasn't able to see them perform live. Since Les' death last year, I renewed my interest in their great music -- their happy teen hits, and the mature songs before Les left the band. RIP for Alan, Les, & Ian.
I had tickets to see them back in the 70's but the concert was cancelled--I was a very unhappy person! Never got the chance to see them again... I'd be quite happy to even see Woody's "New Generation" BCR; it wouldn't be the same but would love to see him anyway in person. Eric was my all-time favorite (still is) but Woody was a very close second. To see Eric playing live would be an absolute dream come true!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Woody was my favorite. My older sister took me to see them on my 13 th birthday my first concert. Best day ever my sister was 22 yrs older and was like my second cool mom. She died in 2000 miss her nice memories. Rip Challys.
Fell in love with the BCR in 1974 ! I was living in Japan at the time and I did go see Les after he went solo. I moved to the USA and had not seen Les or any other BCR. Then I went to see Les in a gig last year 2017 with my hubby while living in the UK. Brought back so many wonderful memories from my teenage years ! Still love the BCR !
my sister and ALL of her friends were so wrapped up with this band back in the day, good to listen to their story as told here, and even though they were not favourite of mine they left their mark on everyone at school in the early seventes GB.
I've been a MASSIVE fan since 1977 when I was only 10 years old. You really can't imagine my delight when I heard about their reunion tour. Me & my best mate are going to see them in Blackpool on 16th December for the 3rd time this year hahaha 😀😀😀😀. Soooooo excited & can't wait. I'm now a 49 year old and even my 11 year old boy loves them now & knows all of their songs word for word

I loved the Bay Ciry Rollers music. Nearly 50 years lalter I still do. Around a month ago, I sang "Remember" on a karaoke night. I'd love to sing "Angel Angel" too.
This reminds me of Beatlemania. I was thirteen when The Beatles landed in America on 2-7-64. I was in my twenties when Rollermania hit America in 1975. Of The Beatles my favorite member is Sir Paul whom I had crush on for 53 years. My favorite member of The Bay City Rollers is Eric I had a crush on him for 42 years. Thanks for sharing the video.
What was it about the BCR's above all the other 70's heartthrobs that particularly made girls go so hysterical in some cases? I remember seeing it in tv as a child and being disturbed by it the scenes of fainting and screaming. Was it their looks, songs, or a combination of both? Even Cassidy and The Osmonds didn't quite have this level of hysteria.
@@markfernandes9715 This is why we tell you Scotsmen are dour .... Cause if you knew the truth about how hot they actually are we'd loose our biggest ( aye😉 ) and best resource don't you know! Also why the preferred garment is a kilt .Easy access!🤣😂🤣😂
@@markfernandes9715 I don't know about other fans; for me, it was just "everything". The music, their looks, the sense of belonging to a "fandom" like no other--they just connected to me like no other band ever has before or since. I still listen to Roller music everyday...love all the TH-cam videos of the band that I never got to enjoy back in the 70's. Eric (lead guitar) is my personal favorite; always has been--always will be!❤🎸🔥
@@markfernandes9715 I think it was that the Rollers captured the essence of youth better and more accurately than the other big 70’s teen icons did. There was just something more genuine about them. Their music (for the most part) captured that feeling of what it was like to be young and alive better than most. That’s my take on it anyway. I mean, I was never a screamer or a fainter, plus I’m a guy… but I do remember getting that ‘rush’ from their music, as opposed to the Osmonds, who in my opinion only had one good song (Crazy Horses).
maybe a few lads liked them but were never brave enough to admit it, remember in the 70's your music choice was your fighting gang, folk would ask you "punk skinhead or mod?" just pray you answered right lol
My Mum used to sew strips of tartan material on mine and my sister’s jeans and our Grandmother knitted us sweaters like the ones the Rollers used to wear 👍🏻 none of it was official merchandise but we loved it ♥️ I remember having an Album of theirs as a Christmas present and was so chuffed with it 😃
Ditto in our house probably at the very same time Was it this by any chance , I think my other sister got the Once Upon A Star too !! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wouldn%27t_You_Like_It%3F

love these guys, listening to them as a teenager since mid 70's - I'm 58 now , a pen pal in UK sent me a magazine article about them then then heard them on the radio, always a dedicated fan !
Yep! First song in the US...S A T U R D A Y NIGHT! Remember it well in grade school! My first BCR Album! Wish I had been allowed to go to one of their concerts! They were near Cape Cod once & we were leaving the Cape...I was broken hearted my parents said I couldn’t go. GREAT DAYS! 😃🎼🎸🎹🎤🎯. THANKS! This was GREAT FUN to relive those FUN DAYS w/the BCRs & their FAB SONGS & Tiger Beat magazine posters! ♥️💕
Saturday Night was their big breakthrough on this side of the pond, some time at either the very end of ‘75 or the very beginning of ‘76, but I had already been turned on to their records at least a year earlier (I’m American) through my aunt, who somehow already knew about them. I was only 7 years old at the time, and I completely loved it. In fact it was the Rollers and the original Alice Cooper Band that started my lifelong musical obsession. They were both ground zero for me. Anyway, I just remember how before the Howard Cosell thing, nobody here in the states knew who they were or even wanted to know, and then all of a sudden Rollermania swept the nation like a tartan tsunami. The main thing I remember about 1976, aside from all the obvious bicentennial stuff, was 3 things: The Hustle, Frampton Comes Alive, and Rollermania.
My mum did similar, I can remember her with her sewing machine out constantly adding both my sister’s favourite tartan colour of their fave band member tartan colours that they wore Blue tartan I remember was Eric’s ! Les White/Red tartan I think .. I remember a yellow tartan too ! happy days GLAM ROCK 70’s th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcpiA8pJS3T4DFh70PUZZrcvT.html
RIP Les, one of the greatest and most charismatic frontman of a boy band band of all time. Before there was Harry of 1D, Gary of Take That, Justin of NSYNC, Tony & Brian of East 17, The Goss twins of Bros, and Jordan from the NKOTB there was Les. RIP
thank heavens for people like you who know the good artists listed here an yes talent should be embraced as I said above USA was the end of the band BUT Germany, UK, Japan still love BCR..whether they get royalties probably not and the sad thing is 'Wouldn't you like it? all songs were written by Faulkner and Wood. They were screwed..now THAT songwriting should have given them money..They owned that....more crap from Arseista records which strangely became Sony BMG owned my a Mr Cowell..c'mon pay their royalties....sadly Ian, Les and Alan are gone but their spouses deserve what they earned People in the business have tried so hard to help and everyone knows it's the biggest rip off in history for a band. x
@@juliearch1 ah, actually all songs were not written by Eric and definitely not Woody. Eric wrote the songs mostly before Duncan. Then it was Eric and Duncan who wrote BCR songs.
they were a band,played there own instruments..nync all of the others like them did not they are boy groups NOT BANDS ..THEY TECHNICALLY WERE A CHORUS..TYPE THING
Tam Paton was a grade-A scumbag. I’m not a religious person, but if there is such a thing as hell, then he’s definitely roasting on a spit there for all eternity. Horrible man.
@@alrightdave6135 They didn’t write what songs? Only the first album contains a majority of songs from outside writers, as was the record contract agreement with Bell when they were signed. After their initial success in 1974, adjustments were made to their contract and Eric and Woody started contributing the lion’s share of songwriting. By the time of the 3rd album (Wouldn’t You Like It), nearly all of the songs were written by band members. This big myth that they only used outside songwriters still persists for some reason, even though several decades have passed and it’s extremely easy to research the facts.
I remember being mad about them 1975 - 76, had their posters and pictures on my wall out of Tigerbeat magazines. Going rollerskating at Roller discos playing their music. Happy, fun, exciting times 😋

The Seventies were the best ever decade for music Aaron, we had endless fads & fashions to go with it too, practically every teenage & pre teen girl around the mid 70’s when Bay City Roller mania was in full swing wore their clothes garnished in strips of their fave Roller member tartan or fully made tartan clothes , I remember my mum constantly had her sewing machine out doing all this after buying the tartan clothes in Leeds world famous market , were M&S began. ( transforming my sisters clothes) Start of the 70’s we had the hippie rolling over from the 60’s , long maxi skirts turned to mini skirts , also Heavy Metal began a year later in 71! , skinheads was a prevalent fad & they listened to Northern Soul & Reggae Music predominantly , Slade were a skinhead band till along came Glam Rock , T.Rex transformed from a folk type band morphing Bubblegum music & Rock to give us Flamboyant Glam foot stomping music with Glitter, Man makeup, Hats & extravagant clothes Platform shoes ,star jumpers , Prog Rock came along Darkside of the Moon , Genesis ELP, a mid seventies lull with good old pop choons of multitude of various genres , but with a underlying more Danceable beat taking hold in the popular music charts ( 4 on the floor beat ) a mixture of TSOP, Soul, Funk , The DJ became the focal point & all this was being played in newly opening Discotheques , mid seventies we were suffering political turmoil with endless strikes ( U.K. ) oil & endless other things worldwide after the Bay City Rollers had , had their moment in-time there was a short lull in fashion & fads although a vibrant Pub Rock scene was carrying on in London & the surrounding areas , whilst we all baked in the hottest summer ever in 1976 here in the U.K. but in London the next trend was about to hit the masses of the U.K. it had been a underground movement since 74 in New York ( New York Dolls , Television Ramones ) ! Punk Rock was a backlash against the stagnant state of music & fashion, along with the crumbling socialist economy of the States & U.K. not to mention endless strikes & the rising unemployment we seemed to have to endure here in the U.K. By the very end of 76’ the very at the end November Pretty Vacant by the Sex Pistols came out on a single & charted , beaten thou by another punk band The Damned with New Rose weeks earlier , but that was the spark that ignited the Punk movement that didn’t last that long but shook music up , it eventually turned into a genre called New Wave , although at the time it was still thought of as punk. At the End of 77 start of 1978 in the midst of the punk explosion a film came out , very edgy for the time ! with sea dialogues for swearing & expletives the likes I’d never heard before but , I was still only 14 😄 , they didn’t bother that much in those days about your age , we were going in pubs drinking too 🤭 by 15 we were regulars 😂 ( honest ) so a 18 rated film at our local flee pit was nothing. Anyway we’re was I !!! Oh yes this film that suddenly changed the world ?!?!? Saturday Night Fever it was , we’d goes see films in those days & come out transformed almost instantly.. same thing happened after seeing Bruce Lee , Enter The Dragon we’d be all Kung foo kicking about each other 🥴 It did start me off going to Jujitsu lessons for 4 or 5 years thou ( one of the best things I ever did ) helped me with Football & keeping a reign on my teenage life. So everyone after seeing Saturday Night Fever & hearing the music ( soundtrack) Disco suddenly exploded upon the world masses ... literally, Discotheque open up everywhere, Disco tracks took over & dominated the charts even world renowned established artist & bands such as Paul McCartney , Rolling Stones , Rod Stewart were jumping on the bandwagon. A song in the spring off 77’ would blow everyone away though with a totally different sound & beat to anything ever heard before A Giorgio Moroder’s produced single for Donna Summer ( The Queen of Disco ) - I Feel Love would change music for the next 20 odd years !! Then 6 months later John Travolta with the help of Olivia Newton John took over the world again, in a musical & in the music charts with the film Grease & its soundtrack Punk was a distance memory, a more refined Punk aka New Wave was now churning out belters for the masses .Outa this was a sub genre that growing increasingly popular after a few sporadic hits throughout the decade , Synth’s keyboards were becoming cheaper to use & buy , by up & coming Artists & Bands . Another game changer happen in mid 79’ by a guy who accidentally came across a synth whilst recording the traditional way ( Gary Numan ) , he stole the thunder off ( OMD , Ultravox , Human League to name but a few ) by having a No1 totally electronic sounding hit , that kicked started the Synthpop era, Tubeway Army - Are friends Electric .... all those aforementioned bands & many more would take over the charts in the next decade of the 80’s & beyond after Numan’s Electronic masterpiece. Another fashion that begun in 79’ that had morphed outa the Punk explosion & was now gathering pace in London Soho district was The New Romantics ( Blitz Kidz ) who’s flamboyant over the top dandy style anchored back to the Glam Rock era as well incorporating many other of the 70’s fashion , not to mentions even the 40’s & 50’s !! Their hero been a man that had spent the whole of the 70’s been like a music chameleon embracing each fad very early & enjoying massive success , this also applied to another similar type trend setter group Roxy Music another staple of the New Romantics fave music preference Lastly in late 79’ two other events changing happenings happened. The release of the Who Inspired rock opera film Quadraphenia came out kickstarting The Mods & Rockers revival with Ska from Two Tone being the main music in that fad & fashion Also in America a rock DJ got sick of disco so joking promoted a Disco sucks ( Demolition) gathering at Chicago’s Comminsky Park night White Sox game , admission was a disco record that was then to be blown up with thousands of others too but the normal 20,000 crowd expected turned out to be 50,000 plus thousand frenzied fans. It got outa hand after the records were blown up damaging the pitch & many fans watching with flying vinyl .. The day Disco died!! Not really it just got even better from then on in, The cream rose to the top of disco acts , morphing into a classier lush sound of .. dance , funk , , jazz funk , jazz fusion Italia disco, soul jazz , unfortunately probably the best & classiest Disco band was Chic who didn’t survive the disco demise, so instead Nile & Bernard turned their talent to being producers, transforming the sound of major or future major stars . Lastly a Chic hit was the catalyst of a genre of music that changed the world!! eventually !! Although in my opinion after the two major hits of this genre it’s been downhill ever since !! Rappers Delight by the Sugarhill Gang then Kurtis Blows The Breaks were the very start & pinnacle of hip hop , rap IMO check out all my Spotify playlists if you use !! all the above get a playlist dedicated to the genre 🤓🎶👍🏻 Here’s a BCR dedicated one of all their chart hits open.spotify.com/user/1122533510/playlist/390pRhJ5saNVZzqS6ZfyOT?si=ZVwY9g4AQPafY4mTH2HPlA open.spotify.com/user/1122533510?si=_kg0jWlwQOyljBIwcKIaLQ
The Bay City Rollers and KC and The Sunshine Band were the first musical groups that I really loved as a kid .. As time went on, I listened to KISS, AC/DC, Cheap Trick, then The Ramones, Blondie, etc ... Sometime in the early 2000s, after not having thought about The Rollers in 20+ years, I was going through my LPs and I put on Summerlove Sensation .. As the song played, I sat frozen, overwhelmed not simply with nostalgia, but at how incredibly perfect this song was, and how it was still better than anything ever .... I think part of the magic was how we as fans could relate to the "wow, this is actually happening" feeling, sort of like winning the lottery .. The BCRs, like KISS, was a grassroots phenomena that was as much about the fans and the fans connection to the music and each other, as it was about the music .... And the music has stood the test of time ..
My first two favorite bands in life were the BCR’s and the original Alice Cooper Band. Strange pairing perhaps, but I was equally obsessed with both bands at exactly the same time in my childhood. Kind of like yourself, I later on got into stuff like Cheap Trick, Ramones, and AC/DC, and subsequently punk and hardcore… but it all began for me with the Bay City Rollers and Alice Cooper. I also had a rather lengthy period of my life where I had stopped listening to the Rollers, but back around Y2K when Napster was a thing, I downloaded a ton of those old BCR tunes and remembered just how great they were. By that point I had long since gotten rid of all my old (BCR) records from my youth, but I quickly set about buying them all again, and I’ve been listening ever since. Mostly it’s classic pop music that still retains it’s original appeal. Some of it sounds really dated and ridiculous, but the stuff that’s good is REALLY good.

They were fantastic. My Dad was from Glasgow (I’m Australian) so it was even more special. Researching an article at the moment, nice to see BCR are in the top 10 of boy bands, equaling 1D in record sales.
My sister, who is seven years older than me. She went to the BCR concert at the Indiana State Fair. She said it was so hot, the fans were over the top. She passed out and missed half of the concert. I remember the Sid & Marty Kroftt productions. The BCR performed on the show on Saturday mornings.
I was at then concert, my first. Everybody else is screaming hysterically for the rollers. I'm the one screaming for them to shut up and sit down so I could hear Les sing My Lisa.

@@KevinDoyle-r1w Thanks ..I had lots more but they’ve been taken off for copyrights which is ridiculous but I’ve lots more documentaries to upload in time also
Oh my such a beautiful video. I came from Kelso and used to look after the coats at Kelso and coldstream when the bay city rollers played there and I got to meet them all. They were all very friendly and the drummer gave me his drum sticks. Something i will never forget. Beautiful memories fabulous times ❤❤❤❤
No longer a fan but 'The Way I Feel Tonight' is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard and I genuinely believe the lads should have the money which is rightfully theirs because they worked for it.
I got heavily into the Bay City Rollers after working in a thrift shop and seeing one of their albums 40 years after its release. Someone bought it before I could get off my shift. Being a huge fan of all things 1970's, I ended up finding my own copy. I had always been more into punk rock and metal, but I visited the UK and saw Les play, saw Woody play, saw Alan's play, and met Derek. Watching the fans get excited like teenagers after what must have been 40 years of following them was incredible. There's something special about bands like the Bay City Rollers and their fan base. Maybe if you're a more cynical person you might write pop artists off, but I find Rollermania infectious and incredible. They were musicians and it was Alan's band at the end of the day. I love my pop and top 40 albums right alongside my obscure and dark ones, and I don't care what anyone says. Long live the Rollers and long live Alan, Ian and Les.
WOULD LIKE TO PUT THE RECORD STRAIGHT. THE ROLLERS WERE NOT ALANS BAND.. THEY WERE TO TALENTLESS BROTHERS, HE AND DEREK. THEY WOULD NEVER HAVE MADE IT WITHOUT LES MCKEOWN, AND ERIC FAULKNER. GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT.
Not sure what little miss caps-lock’s problem is just above me up there, but hopefully she gets all that pent up tension and frustration out of her system some day and learns that there’s a ‘w’ in the word “two”. Anyway, I’m like you. I just like what I like. Good tunes is good tunes. Doesn’t matter if it’s “rock”, “pop”, “art”, or fluff. Doesn’t matter if it’s one chord or a hundred. If it sounds good to my ears and moves me enough to feel something special, then I’m down. People who look through my record collection always seem a bit puzzled and ask me things like “How can you like both (so and so) *AND* (so and so) at the same time?”. I tell them it’s easy, just stop caring what others think about it. Most people limit themselves too much with what they’re “supposed to” listen to or not listen to. I literally feel sorry for them. It must be exhausting making all these rules for oneself to adhere to. You often hear people say that the Rollers were terrible songwriters, or that their songs were nothing more than lightweight fluff, and typically it’s not even an actual opinion founded in fact. It’s just a knee-jerk reaction to seeing a bunch of screaming teenage girls lose their shit over a band, like that somehow negates the potential of anything good in the music itself.
A lot of the BCR “fan club” people don’t like me so I wouldn’t be surprised if this is another one of their “fans”, lol. I didn’t even notice that comment until your reply. But yeah, I agree with you. I like lots of “bad” music. Way too many people tried to knock me for my taste in music or musical ability throughout my life. With art & music it’s about what inspires you as a creative, not what fan club members or critics think.
@@robynnsong In my book, not seeing eye to eye with the critics is a good thing. Not seeing eye to eye with fan club members? Even better. I’ve had a few run-ins with some of these fan club hive-minders myself through the years, so believe me, I understand just how belligerent they can get. It’s almost like a gang mentality with those people. Musical simpletons, incapable of having an original thought or an opinion of their own, imposing their narrow views on anyone who disagrees with them. They all seem to be sharing the same low-wattage brain. Infantile, ridiculous, simple-minded. So, keep on keeping on, and just enjoy being a thorn in their side. Cheers from a fellow “bad” music lover. 😁
Great docu pop ..... I was there with you in the 70's and as for Tam what a sham ........bless all those he abused .....God bless you Bay City Rollers ... you made my very young 9 to 15 teenage years happier xxx
I truly believe that the story of the Rollers really needs to be made into a film, from the street gangs of Edinburgh to a corrupt sexually predatory manager, death, mania and to end up with Witchiepoo!!!
@@johnbarry1965 Maybe, perhaps, if enough money were offered, the others would be willing to come forward with their story. We can only hope. Les's family could tell his side.

I was grade eight and it was top album then, about 1975-76..Saturday Night song would come on radio from Chicago's WLS every day,and night..Couldn't wait to hear it..Sp awful to hear they were ripped off so much money think by their own manager..
"Shang A Lang" is a top top tune...period. I don't care who played on it or who wrote it, it's a killer pop song. The Rollers were a great band, shafted by their management and probably victims of their own quick success. For some unknown reason they're seen as some kind of a joke band nowadays. Quite the opposite. A genuine phenomenon.
@@ryandonagheylovescash4710 Lawrence completely agree with you. Alan Longmuir RIP. Thank you for the great memories and super song sounds. 🎸🎶🎶 Kind regards from Ireland Kate.
Their outfits look ridiculous now, but back then it was taken seriously for that (our) age group. The 1970's were a wonderful time to be alive. If I could go back, I wouldn't change a thing.
In the 6th grade, a bunch of we girls who adored the BCR would join hands to form a formidable line & walk around during recess repeating "S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y.... NIGHT!!!" We thought we were so grown up and cool.
I was 8 in 1974, my sister was 15 and she came home with ‘Summerlove Sensation ‘ and I loved it.. .today it’s mp3s not records but my 70s folder still includes that song along with Remember and Bye Bye Baby. Some might think me growing up a gay guy would explain why I loved those tracks but they would be wrong.. I loved those songs back then because, even though I was only 8 and 9 years old, I knew they were just f-ckin brilliant songs man ! NOW I am watching this documentary in the dreary vaccine world of 2021 and it makes me really appreciate these guys gift to us all back then. Respect to these lovely lads. They can take away the money guys but they can’t take away your music and your charisma.
1974 as it happened, all the other years too , just like this 🤓🎶🎶👍🏻 open.spotify.com/user/1122533510/playlist/75WSEqfzgXoVfpuTemBAkj?si=4Km92JL8R3mdD6_4cY0YGg
The mania is so true. I saw the Rollers in 75, n 76 in Australian, and fairdinkum, after the show at Festival Hall, all the seats were flattened, it was like a war zone.. I took my girls to see One Direction at their peak, I love those boys, but seriously, it was like a nuns tea party.
Raelene nobody both my sisters we’re BCR mad with everything they wore covered in Tartan , & the tartan Of they’re favourite band member , I think blue tartan was Eric’s colour, my older sister fave , not sure what Woody’s was , seem to think & remember my mum sewed a lot of yellow tartan on to items & a white tartan!!! , so maybe that was Woody’s !! 🤩 It was mayhem here also I remember my sister telling me of the craziest things at the concerts 😀 we were spoilt for choice back then IMO the 70’s were the Greatest music days we’ve ever had , who’d of thought all that great music produced WEEKLY by hundreds of bands & artist would ever end !! To what we have today , when maybe you get a dozen descent songs a year if that , unlike our weekly doses of 30-40 great tracks back then 🤩🤩👍🏻
Woody was yellow, Leslie's was blue, and Eric's was red, (like the traditional Macgregor tartan), Derek's was green, and Alan's was a navy blue. There are still thousands of amazing artists around, but not mainstream now, thanks to sites like TH-cam. The mainstream stuff is controlled by assholes in suits, the curators are now the creators. The assholes have been worming their way in for a long time, like a parasitic virus, now they have completely taken over the ridiculous top 40. Yep must have been fun having crazy sisters with all those stories. As soon as time machines are on the market, Im going back to the 70s. Maybe Im there already......

I loved the interview pieces with Carol Strauss. She speaks of the boys and the fans with such affection; I hope the reality at the time reflected that.
I live in a city of approx 35,000 on the prairies of western Canada 🇨🇦, and it amazed me how quickly the BCR caught on around here in '77/'78, when I was 12-13 yrs old. I had a pair of red & white striped socks, and my friends & I clamored for anything tartan!!
@@goldiedover9294 Wasn't it amazing @goldiedover? My younger sister and I had our favorite band members, we are in our mid to late 50s now, were just reminiscing about them recently. I still have several of their songs on my playlist, takes me back to that time in our lives every time!
A very good documentary of a boy band who were very big for 3 or 4 years and unknowingly at the time taken advantage of. In all this we had interviews with Les,woody,Alan and Derek but nothing from Eric which i found rather strange. I still have great memories of this band as they brought so much joy to a lot of people at the time.
Eric has never been very big on doing interviews, and is even less of a fan of discussing his time with the Rollers, so it’s not that surprising to me that he doesn’t appear in this. Personally I would have liked to have seen them go into the Duncan era (‘79-‘81), and maybe talk to Duncan Faure himself. That particular era too often gets overlooked, and they were actually making some pretty decent music at the time. Now, I have to say it. The whole “boy band” thing has never really sat well with me. I mean yes, I get that the Rollers were basically the template for the boy band market, but they actually did play their own instruments. Whether they were accomplished musicians or not has no bearing on the fact that if one is in a “boy band”, then their performance is generally limited to singing and dancing… and even then the dancing is all choreographed. The Rollers never fit the bill there. It’s worth pointing out since the term “boy band” carries a *LOT* of baggage.
@@Shikta-poobah67 Yes i see your point of view as the Rollers did play their own instruments and probably should have been known as a group. But they were very young at the time of their success and that is why the Boy Band label started with them and went on a lot later with acts such as Boyzone and One Direction even though those last two acts didn't play any instruments . In fact how can they call any act a Band if they don't play instruments!
@@edwardpink2759 Yeah I’ve never really understood that terminology myself. It really should be “boy groups” rather than “boy bands”, but I don’t make the rules. All I know is that over the years there have been thousands… maybe even hundreds of thousands of bands made up of members who were still in their teens, or in a few instances even preteens, that were never once referred to as “boy bands”. When the L.A. punk/power pop band Redd Kross (or Red Cross as they were originally known) released their first record, their bass player was only 11, and the oldest band member was 17. They were officially signed to a record label and already touring the local circuit. There are tons of other examples, especially with punk and garage bands. I don’t know. The bizarre usage of the “boy band” labeling, especially in recent times has been rather confusing. I see people these days often try to label the Beatles as a boy band, which is utterly ridiculous and wrong. Maybe a case could be made for the Monkees, but I don’t even think it applies with them. The very first group I can think of that *TRULY* fit the category was Menudo, in the early 80’s.
@@Shikta-poobah67 It's good to communicate with someone who knows and understands what they are talking about. Best of luck to you in the future Brewster.
I was a huge BCR fan and still am. I was ecstatic to find a BCR group on Facebook (several actually) and that Les is active, both on social media and still touring. I was in my early 50s when I got a reply to a comment and suddenly, I was 12 years old again. I squeed loud enough to wake the dead and nearly fell out of my chair! omg It was delicious!
Great, all except for the fact that Eric wasn’t in it at all, they completely ignored the Duncan years, and didn’t even mention the Dedication album (one of their best). A bit rushed, in my opinion. However yes, they talked to some great people and touched on some good points, but there should have been quite a bit more discussed.

"The Rollers should be remembered for their glory days". Great quote, very true as they worked very hard. They had no-one to trust. R. I. P. Les, a talent never to be repeated.
UK version of the Monkees
And Ian, who was later but still loved.
Not to forget Alan... such a talented musician an such a handsome young man!!! ❤❤❤
I loved Les! ❤
I had severe anxiety in elementary school. I got teased a lot so I'd cry every morning. My Mom knew how much I loved The Bay City Rollers so she would put our Rock and Roll Love Letters album on to calm me down. We would dance together until the bus would come. I thanked her for that before she passed and I also thanked her for teaching me how to be a great Mother to my own children. I wish there was a way I could thank them too though, I might have been a fifth grade drop out without their music lol.
Their music saved my life too...happiest days of my teenage years, my heart would soar when I heard one of their songs on the radio.
I hope they know just how much their music meant to us.

Not a fan, but you are probably right. :)
My heart goes out to everyone who loved the Bay City Rollers i and my sister we drove my mum and dad crazy asking for the tartan which the Bay City Rollers were we would sing to there songs god bless to you and all the families ❤️🙏😢😢xx
I had a tartan Bay City Rollers suit in the mid 70s, I was on 5 or 6 and can still remember everyone in primary school singing to the Rollers. Greatest boy band ever !
I always wanted a pair of striped socks like The Bay City Rollers wore but sadly I never got them! My sister did much to my annoyance!
OMG!! I'm knocking 60, I still remember the rollers ❤️❤️ I would jump if me hips would let me 😂
I don't believe that come on .
What your 60 and can not move are you fat look at mick80 and dancing
I knew nothing else but the words bay city rollers in the 70’s its the best years of my life!!!!
Rosalina are you on Spotify at all !!!
Wish I could get in a time machine and return to these days .
Wouldn't we all?
Me to
Just for the quaaludes alone! God I miss ‘ludes.
Same here.
Honestly it wasn’t that great.
Boy, did this bring back some wonderful memories!!!! I had a ball singing and dancing along to those tunes 💖💖💖
Was a Rollers fan in the 70's and still listen to them now, along with my other 70's favourites Abba

God help u
Abba were never fashionable or cool but there songs stand alongside Beatles and rolling stones imo excellent rock n roll, timeless, VERY talented musicians and songwriters . Waterloo can be played as a rocking tune or bluesed up. Bcr were a bit wishy washy tbh. But that's the market they were aimed at.
Rollermania was done WITHOUT Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TH-cam, text messages and emails. Imagine if they had social media back then?

just imagine if the BEATLES had social media back then.
My guess is,they wouldn't have have been as big because they would have over saturated themselves and burned out very fast.When things take time and grow slowly,they tend to take hold stronger.I'm a first generation Rollers fan.I really like the Duncan period as well.Elevator is a GREAT powerpop album.
I try not to think of that Horror film
I'm 55 years old, I remember them so well, will always cherish them forever!!!
Me too ❤ 55 years old and remember every song .
I’m 59 this year, I remember having the sweet on my side of the room with bay city rollers while my sister was in to Noddy holder on the other side. When we use to quarrel I would scribble on her posters of Noddy and Gary glitter haaahaaaa no regrets😅😊
ty Les....without your voice it would never have been.........miss you...xx
I had every album they made. I will never forget how excited I was when I saw their first album in a big city record store. I could hardly get my money out of my purse I was shaking so much. Ahh loved these guys
I adored the rollers, my mum used to call me in from where I was playing to tell me Shang a lane was about to be on the tv 😂😂😂
Thank you for sharing this documentery. For me: The Bay City Rollers is one of the best band. Alan, Ian and Les. Never forget. Thank you: The Bay City Rollers for your great music.
Were we ever so young and carefree? I long for those days and watching the BCR, just brought it all back to me. I loved them. I loved their music. Thank you so much for this video!!!!
Maybe you were young and carefree...the lives of these poor young men was littered with verbal and sexual abuse, drugs, and suicide attempts. What a wonderful time.
At one point, I had 10,239 pictures on the walls of my room, at the same time. I know, because one time during a sleep over with my best friend, and fellow Rollermaniac, we took a red pen and numbered each picture. They ranged in size from huge double sized posters to the tiniest pictures cut from 16 or Tiger Beat. The Bay City Rollers WERE my youth.... and my dream is to one day, meet at least one of them to simply say, thank you.
Same. I even tried to sew strips of tartan on my toughskins. Lolol. I was like 6
I was lucky enough to meet Eric when he toured with other people but still called them the Bay City Rollers. They sang all the old Roller songs and we caught them in the parking lot afterwards. Got Eric's autograph and the chance to thank him. He was sweet and gracious.
I used to collect The bubblegum card pictures of the Rollers, Look in magazine used to have a poster of them every month. People forget how huge there were in 74-76.
I'm English, and I'm just like you! I liked Derek best, because he seemed like the underdog. I was a strange teenager...
@@angelamaryquitecontrary4609 me too always fell in love with the drummers…
Im the happiest person on earth because of The Bay City Rnollers!!!! Thank you Alan, Derek, Woody, Eric, Les, Ian, Pat and Duncan!!!!!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👆👆👆🤟🤟🤟👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Marcia Burns get yourself on Spotify it’s even better & better sounding make endless playlist & mixes of everything from back in the 70’s 80’s etc or find all my stuff I’ve compiled all the chart years ( done all the hard work for anyone ) you can usually get a month or 3 FREE Premium to start with after you can carry on paying ( that’s the idea to Entice you in or use their freebie device with limitations, 30 ads every 4 tracks & on the free phone app 6 skips of tracks per hour
Here’s a example of what you could listen too 🤓🎶👍🏻

Best years of my life were my Roller years! This made me laugh and cry remembering those good old days!
Not a Rollers fan but a lifelong Motor racing fan. Will never forget the Radio 1 fun day at Mallory park, the Rollers came by helicopter landing on a small island in the middle of a lake on the infield.
Racing had to be stopped as fans ran across the track in the middle of the race and many had to be rescued after jumping in and trying to swim across to the island,
It was complete mayhem, never laughed so much in my life😂😂😂
My cousin used to babysit me as kid and she would crank the Bay City Rollers at full volume and let me do whatever I wanted until my parents came home. I have a soft spot for this band
Haha i used to babysit my wee cousins and play Duran Duran and the Sex Pistols till my auntie and uncle came home. They'd make pizza baguettes and let me crash on the sofa.
Happy days
63 this year I would love to relive the 70s in a heartbeat so many fond memories loved the rollers 😊
Musically You Can !!
Start watching the video , then wait a few seconds for the video to play & the listing to jump back to that present video playing & thus the next video inline on view below & so on if you wanna skip through , so no endless scrolling back to your present video position from the first few video’s if your too impatient .. 🤓
I’ve painstakingly searched out the very best video I can find .. that resembles it best sonically, the priority is that firstly & hopefully footage of the very time too .. if not available il ad a generic sound only video placer till someone uploads a descent video version or better combination vid comes along , I can replace it with. Ignore any dating on the videos if it says differently lots of factors why that’s the case. Usually the American artists & bands released their songs earlier, before they got released in the U.K.
… You’ve a complete Top 50 / 75 Chart decade of the 70’s with the very best sound & vision video tracks combo all in every single week after week chart entry order 🤓 plus I add just a few relevant of that very time a tv or film theme also , although a fair few entered the charts themselves anyway, has music was just that good back then … So you’ve got a complete 70’s year on year music library at your fingertips .. if you keep these links below …. … Enjoy AHB 🤓🎶👌🏻

Best documentary I have seen on the Rollers. I was a rollermaniac and to this day, one of the most memorable things in my life was seeing them in concert. It was truly a dream come true. Thanks for stirring up great memories!
Sue Robinson
Hi Sue, Great childhood memories for me.Life was so different back then.
Their music will live for generations.
Kind regards from Ireland Kate. 👱♀️💕
I just had a wonderful time watching this video. Smiling at all the footage and photos, singing along with the music. BCR was and still is my favorite group of all time. Their music is a part of me and will be forever. Thank you Les, Eric, Derek, Woody and (RIP) Alan for the wonderful music and fabulous memories.
Kathy Bessey glad you enjoyed it Kathy lots of BCR in here ( look at all my other yearly UK CHART playlists also you’ll be amazed ) if you are on Spotify!!

The best band out of Scotland ❤ Les 😢 bye bye baby .
Their popularity reached to rural America. I remember my big sister had their single Saturday night. I thought it was just the coolest thing. Thanks for the memories of better days.
Glad you enjoyed it Bob … these might bring back lots more great memories!!
Definitely better days .. can’t get any worse than things seem to be these days !
But one thing we definitely had back then was endless great music to take our minds off any strife we mighta had unlike the kids of today !!
If your like me I can go back to those moments in my life because of all the music I was listening to continually
The U.K. & US were very similar charts,probably about 60% in similarity ! or there abouts , but all the cream ( popular stuff ) rose in both the charts on both sides of the Atlantic.. so you should enjoy & remember most of these !!!
Although it’s amazing how many ppl do forget .. I have everything personally in my own music collection & library , I’m still collecting/discovering constantly too reading many books & mags on it all these days .. it became a sorta obsession from a kid but from the advent of the digital age I could exponentially get anything I desired. So lots of this now is me copying across my playlist & mixes for others to enjoy if they come across it.
Everything in each yr is in chart entry order too so a late 60’s full 70’s & early 80’s music historical timeline of everything.. & all done eventually 1981 I’m about 2/3 the way through atm

Also from 1975-1979 they were the the Golden Boys of The White Teen Magazine Set who were in a Magazine called Tiger Beat (1965-Present). It was created by Lloyd Saxton who also hosted a popular Music Show. In 1971 Right On became the First Black Teen Magazine.
Also The Archies had a Song called Bang Shang A Lang, and in a Bugs Bunny Cartoon parodying Little Red Riding Hood The Big Bad Wolf told granny to go and he screamed shang a lang.
It's true. I was a 13/14 year old lad at the time and the Rollers were absolutely massive. Shame they never saw much money from their fame.
Your right there they were robbed blind!
Me, l was a Glitterband fan, but boy did l admire The BayCityRollers. Great young men we should all be proud of. We are loosing them all so fast now, these wonderful, talented youngsters from the Seventies. For those of us left behind we should defend them all. Be the voices that some of them no longer have. Many of the seventies bands were ripped off. Keep their memories alive people, no matter how. RIP Alan Ian and Les. In fact l extend that to members of not only The BayCity Rollers but also members of The GlitterBand, Sweet and all other seventies bands that have lost members. Thanks one and all for the best memories ever. 😪
I keep there memories alive by just listening to all their stuff daily , with my personal music collection or a video online like right here on YT
But I’ve also curated a few of my personal mixes & playlists to Spotify, about 250 so far , for anyone to listen to, even have the virtual every ever chart hit library of EVERYTHING at their fingertips to go to & find a moment in time & play the music that defined that moment , those choons that pinpoint specific times in our happy or even sad! historical memory , what we were doing at those times places we went & heard them, the friends we had ..... ALL HERE IF ANYONE USES .. SPOTIFY! 👇🏻
I’ve quite a big following now off them of folk on there with technology now most of us have , I enjoy the fact that with my music obsession , I’ve hopefully helped others find all those long lost forgotten choons ppl don’t HEAR anymore! But are instantly & readily available to all now , all the hard work done 🤓🎶👍🏻 all you have to do is listen , find a year a month etc & your back !!! 😍👌🏻👇🏻

I will always defend my 1970's bands to the ends of the Earth! I get so much flack from friends about my obsession with 70's artists, many of whom are given a bad rap, but I've never cared. I know they're wrong. Also, pop music requires talent and drive just like any other genre. I think people forget how grueling the entertainment industry is on the mind, body and soul. It's easy to be dismissive if you've never been a part of it or privy to the behind the scenes.
It really puts things into perspective once you reach a certain age where you start watching members of all the bands you grew up listening to die on a frequent basis. I’m pushing 60, was just a little kid when I first got into the Rollers, and already there are 3 Rollers gone. I’ve been a huge Ramones fan for almost as long, and that entire band has passed, at least all the original members. Then I think about all the original 50’s rockers, who are now *ALL* gone since Jerry Lee passed away last year. It won’t be much longer before all the 60’s rockers have left us, and soon after, the 70’s.
Time is a cruel bitch.
Rest in peace Les Mckeown
rest in peace to the lady he killed.
And Ian Mitchell.
Woo hoo! Best band of my teenage years, bought the CD and still listen to them… Loved the drummer!!! Thank you Derek for your groove that made me dance🥁💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼🙌🥰🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Omg I remember this band loved them bay City rollers! ❤ From Australia 🦘🐊 r.i.p Les a band never forgotten 2023.
After all these years, I still have ALL of their albums and 16 Magazines!!!
Well done & thank you for uploading this BBC documentary -- it wasn't broadcast in the U.S., so I very much appreciate it. As a young teen, I enjoyed the BCR but wasn't able to see them perform live. Since Les' death last year, I renewed my interest in their great music -- their happy teen hits, and the mature songs before Les left the band. RIP for Alan, Les, & Ian.
Thankyou 😘

Can’t believe it! RIP Les ❤️
Brilliant! What memories. Saw them Edinburgh and it was chaos. Haha. Loved them unconditionally ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I had tickets to see them back in the 70's but the concert was cancelled--I was a very unhappy person! Never got the chance to see them again...
I'd be quite happy to even see Woody's "New Generation" BCR; it wouldn't be the same but would love to see him anyway in person. Eric was my all-time favorite (still is) but Woody was a very close second. To see Eric playing live would be an absolute dream come true!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Woody was my favorite. My older sister took me to see them on my 13 th birthday my first concert. Best day ever my sister was 22 yrs older and was like my second cool mom. She died in 2000 miss her nice memories. Rip Challys.
Woody was my favourite, too!!!! In Toy Story!!! LOL!!!
Sorry for the loss of your sister, treasure your precious memories ❤️
Love this seventies nostalgia!✌️
Fell in love with the BCR in 1974 ! I was living in Japan at the time and I did go see Les after he went solo. I moved to the USA and had not seen Les or any other BCR. Then I went to see Les in a gig last year 2017 with my hubby while living in the UK. Brought back so many wonderful memories from my teenage years ! Still love the BCR !
One time Bay city Rollers fan always Bay city rollers fan
my sister and ALL of her friends were so wrapped up with this band back in the day, good to listen to their story as told here, and even though they were not favourite of mine they left their mark on everyone at school in the early seventes GB.
I've been a MASSIVE fan since 1977 when I was only 10 years old. You really can't imagine my delight when I heard about their reunion tour. Me & my best mate are going to see them in Blackpool on 16th December for the 3rd time this year hahaha 😀😀😀😀. Soooooo excited & can't wait. I'm now a 49 year old and even my 11 year old boy loves them now & knows all of their songs word for word
Fiona Price how was the concert?
Yes I am still listening all these years later, makes my house work not such a chore 😁
Check out my playlists of the 70’s on TH-cam.. house work you’ll be doing constantly!! 😁 click on my profile pici then playlist tab .. if you use Spot… ify same again , name & profile picture 20th century music library at your fingertips 🤓🎶🎶🎶👌🏻
Done. Thanks 😊
LOVE WATCHING THIS FROM WAY BACK IN THEIR YOUNG DAYS LOVE IT.
I loved the Bay Ciry Rollers music. Nearly 50 years lalter I still do. Around a month ago, I sang "Remember" on a karaoke night. I'd love to sing "Angel Angel" too.
This reminds me of Beatlemania. I was thirteen when The Beatles landed in America on 2-7-64. I was in my twenties when Rollermania hit America in 1975. Of The Beatles my favorite member is Sir Paul whom I had crush on for 53 years. My favorite member of The Bay City Rollers is Eric I had a crush on him for 42 years. Thanks for sharing the video.
The Beatles and bay city rollers were always my favorite
What was it about the BCR's above all the other 70's heartthrobs that particularly made girls go so hysterical in some cases? I remember seeing it in tv as a child and being disturbed by it the scenes of fainting and screaming. Was it their looks, songs, or a combination of both? Even Cassidy and The Osmonds didn't quite have this level of hysteria.
@@markfernandes9715 This is why we tell you Scotsmen are dour ....
Cause if you knew the truth about how hot they actually are we'd loose our biggest ( aye😉 ) and best resource don't you know! Also why the preferred garment is a kilt .Easy access!🤣😂🤣😂
@@markfernandes9715 I don't know about other fans; for me, it was just "everything". The music, their looks, the sense of belonging to a "fandom" like no other--they just connected to me like no other band ever has before or since. I still listen to Roller music everyday...love all the TH-cam videos of the band that I never got to enjoy back in the 70's.
Eric (lead guitar) is my personal favorite; always has been--always will be!❤🎸🔥
@@markfernandes9715 I think it was that the Rollers captured the essence of youth better and more accurately than the other big 70’s teen icons did. There was just something more genuine about them. Their music (for the most part) captured that feeling of what it was like to be young and alive better than most. That’s my take on it anyway. I mean, I was never a screamer or a fainter, plus I’m a guy… but I do remember getting that ‘rush’ from their music, as opposed to the Osmonds, who in my opinion only had one good song (Crazy Horses).
ALONG WITH AC/DC THIS WAS MY FAVOURITE BAND. NOT SURE IF ANY OTHER BOYS MY AGE LIKED THIER MUSIC BUT I FRIGGIN, LOVED IT. IT WAS SIMPLE AND TRUE.
The Bay shitty rollers
Good pop songs. McKeown could sing pretty good
maybe a few lads liked them but were never brave enough to admit it,
remember in the 70's your music choice was your fighting gang,
folk would ask you "punk skinhead or mod?"
just pray you answered right lol
To Angus 1966 if you don't like The Bay City Rollers what the F%#C are u doing here?
Jose Plaza U got CRAP taste, if U do not like the BCR what are you doing listening to them? Are U a zombie?
Oh the memories and getting to see them in concert!! RIP Les.
My Mum used to sew strips of tartan material on mine and my sister’s jeans and our Grandmother knitted us sweaters like the ones the Rollers used to wear 👍🏻 none of it was official merchandise but we loved it ♥️ I remember having an Album of theirs as a Christmas present and was so chuffed with it 😃
Ditto in our house probably at the very same time
Was it this by any chance , I think my other sister got the Once Upon A Star too !!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wouldn%27t_You_Like_It%3F
God, me too! That album was the best present ever!
Yes , that was the one 👍🏻@@OLDGOLDDREAMER
It was a time like no other.
Heyy Linda certainly was , we were in the apex of the greatest music period 1965-85 , 1980 being the pinnacle of all years in music IMEO 🤓🎶🎶👍🏻 are you on Spotify by any chance !!? , I’ve a vast personal music library of 278k at the mo ( a bit obsessed & OCD my wife says , It’s just my passion I say 😁 ) anyway ive started copying a few playlists & mixes of mine to Spotify for others to enjoy , I’m quite meticulous in my pursuit of everything of last century& having a ready made .. go to ... instant any time period I desire & listen to the music of that moment 🤓🎶😁👍🏻 I have that , so I’ve since started putting them on Spotify for others to use ... there pretty popular too lots of everything, all the years since 1952 either the Best Off TOTP’s years I call them about 250-300 of the best chart hits , plus a few TV& Film of that year themes , along with a few outstanding album tracks most will know , but weren’t released as singles but deserve a mention, I’ve also added my every ever single release years right at the end of my lists , take a look if your around 50 something you should love to bits if you were/are music mad ( I’m adding more when I’ve time so something for everyone, eventually, a few are trending right now ) 🤓🎶🎶🎶👍🏻
open.spotify.com/user/1122533510?si=KhGB5-bmThmskPffYG2cSA
That's exactly what JS thought too unfortunately
love these guys, listening to them as a teenager since mid 70's - I'm 58 now , a pen pal in UK sent me a magazine article about them then then heard them on the radio, always a dedicated fan !
Yep! First song in the US...S A T U R D A Y NIGHT! Remember it well in grade school! My first BCR Album! Wish I had been allowed to go to one of their concerts! They were near Cape Cod once & we were leaving the Cape...I was broken hearted my parents said I couldn’t go. GREAT DAYS! 😃🎼🎸🎹🎤🎯. THANKS! This was GREAT FUN to relive those FUN DAYS w/the BCRs & their FAB SONGS & Tiger Beat magazine posters! ♥️💕
Saturday Night was their big breakthrough on this side of the pond, some time at either the very end of ‘75 or the very beginning of ‘76, but I had already been turned on to their records at least a year earlier (I’m American) through my aunt, who somehow already knew about them. I was only 7 years old at the time, and I completely loved it. In fact it was the Rollers and the original Alice Cooper Band that started my lifelong musical obsession. They were both ground zero for me.
Anyway, I just remember how before the Howard Cosell thing, nobody here in the states knew who they were or even wanted to know, and then all of a sudden Rollermania swept the nation like a tartan tsunami. The main thing I remember about 1976, aside from all the obvious bicentennial stuff, was 3 things: The Hustle, Frampton Comes Alive, and Rollermania.
Still love them...dam good prefromers, awesome ❤️❤️👍🏼👍🏼🎶🎶
Thanks for the music and memories rest in peace les ❤️
I was 12 in 1976 USA.
It wasn’t easy sewing plaid to the bottom of our jeans. I made a vest too. God bless 16 Magazine ❤
My mum did similar, I can remember her with her sewing machine out constantly adding both my sister’s favourite tartan colour of their fave band member tartan colours that they wore Blue tartan I remember was Eric’s ! Les White/Red tartan I think .. I remember a yellow tartan too ! happy days

Not plaid...tartan!😅😅
RIP Les, one of the greatest and most charismatic frontman of a boy band band of all time. Before there was Harry of 1D, Gary of Take That, Justin of NSYNC, Tony & Brian of East 17, The Goss twins of Bros, and Jordan from the NKOTB there was Les. RIP
thank heavens for people like you who know the good artists listed here an yes talent should be embraced as I said above USA was the end of the band BUT Germany, UK, Japan still love BCR..whether they get royalties probably not and the sad thing is 'Wouldn't you like it? all songs were written by Faulkner and Wood. They were screwed..now THAT songwriting should have given them money..They owned that....more crap from Arseista records which strangely became Sony BMG owned my a Mr Cowell..c'mon pay their royalties....sadly Ian, Les and Alan are gone but their spouses deserve what they earned People in the business have tried so hard to help and everyone knows it's the biggest rip off in history for a band. x
None of those mentioned were 'before' the Bay City Rollers(???) How old are you to say something so incorrect?
she doesn’t if you take time to read her comment Jade says
‘ Before they’re WAS ‘ … BCR
@@juliearch1 ah, actually all songs were not written by Eric and definitely not Woody. Eric wrote the songs mostly before Duncan. Then it was Eric and Duncan who wrote BCR songs.
they were a band,played there own instruments..nync all of the others like them did not they are boy groups NOT BANDS ..THEY TECHNICALLY WERE A CHORUS..TYPE THING
So sad they were robbed, they deserved the rewards for their work. Still remember the joy from hearing them sing x
Tam Paton was a grade-A scumbag. I’m not a religious person, but if there is such a thing as hell, then he’s definitely roasting on a spit there for all eternity. Horrible man.
They didn’t write the songs.
@@alrightdave6135 They didn’t write what songs? Only the first album contains a majority of songs from outside writers, as was the record contract agreement with Bell when they were signed. After their initial success in 1974, adjustments were made to their contract and Eric and Woody started contributing the lion’s share of songwriting. By the time of the 3rd album (Wouldn’t You Like It), nearly all of the songs were written by band members.
This big myth that they only used outside songwriters still persists for some reason, even though several decades have passed and it’s extremely easy to research the facts.
@@alrightdave6135bored or jealous which are you?
I remember being mad about them 1975 - 76, had their posters and pictures on my wall out of Tigerbeat magazines. Going rollerskating at Roller discos playing their music. Happy, fun, exciting times 😋

I feel so jealous for not being able to experience this forgotten frenzy. I’m 20 and am sooooo suffering rollermania.
The Seventies were the best ever decade for music Aaron, we had endless fads & fashions to go with it too, practically every teenage & pre teen girl around the mid 70’s when Bay City Roller mania was in full swing wore their clothes garnished in strips of their fave Roller member tartan or fully made tartan clothes , I remember my mum constantly had her sewing machine out doing all this after buying the tartan clothes in Leeds world famous market , were M&S began. ( transforming my sisters clothes)
Start of the 70’s we had the hippie rolling over from the 60’s , long maxi skirts turned to mini skirts , also Heavy Metal began a year later in 71! , skinheads was a prevalent fad & they listened to Northern Soul & Reggae Music predominantly , Slade were a skinhead band till along came Glam Rock , T.Rex transformed from a folk type band morphing Bubblegum music & Rock to give us Flamboyant Glam foot stomping music with Glitter, Man makeup, Hats & extravagant clothes Platform shoes ,star jumpers , Prog Rock came along Darkside of the Moon , Genesis ELP, a mid seventies lull with good old pop choons of multitude of various genres , but with a underlying more Danceable beat taking hold in the popular music charts ( 4 on the floor beat ) a mixture of TSOP, Soul, Funk , The DJ became the focal point & all this was being played in newly opening Discotheques , mid seventies we were suffering political turmoil with endless strikes ( U.K. ) oil & endless other things worldwide after the Bay City Rollers had , had their moment in-time there was a short lull in fashion & fads although a vibrant Pub Rock scene was carrying on in London & the surrounding areas , whilst we all baked in the hottest summer ever in 1976 here in the U.K. but in London the next trend was about to hit the masses of the U.K. it had been a underground movement since 74 in New York ( New York Dolls , Television Ramones ) !
Punk Rock was a backlash against the stagnant state of music & fashion, along with the crumbling socialist economy of the States & U.K. not to mention endless strikes & the rising unemployment we seemed to have to endure here in the U.K. By the very end of 76’ the very
at the end November Pretty Vacant by the Sex Pistols came out on a single & charted , beaten thou by another punk band The Damned with New Rose weeks earlier , but that was the spark that ignited the Punk movement that didn’t last that long but shook music up , it eventually turned into a genre called New Wave , although at the time it was still thought of as punk.
At the End of 77 start of 1978 in the midst of the punk explosion a film came out , very edgy for the time ! with sea dialogues for swearing & expletives the likes I’d never heard before but , I was still only 14 😄 , they didn’t bother that much in those days about your age , we were going in pubs drinking too 🤭 by 15 we were regulars 😂 ( honest ) so a 18 rated film at our local flee pit was nothing.
Anyway we’re was I !!! Oh yes this film that suddenly changed the world ?!?!?
Saturday Night Fever it was , we’d goes see films in those days & come out transformed almost instantly.. same thing happened after seeing Bruce Lee , Enter The Dragon we’d be all Kung foo kicking about each other 🥴 It did start me off going to Jujitsu lessons for 4 or 5 years thou ( one of the best things I ever did ) helped me with Football & keeping a reign on my teenage life.
So everyone after seeing Saturday Night Fever & hearing the music ( soundtrack) Disco suddenly exploded upon the world masses ... literally, Discotheque open up everywhere, Disco tracks took over & dominated the charts even world renowned established artist & bands such as Paul McCartney , Rolling Stones , Rod Stewart were jumping on the bandwagon. A song in the spring off 77’ would blow everyone away though with a totally different sound & beat to anything ever heard before
A Giorgio Moroder’s produced single for Donna Summer ( The Queen of Disco ) - I Feel Love would change music for the next 20 odd years !!
Then 6 months later John Travolta with the help of Olivia Newton John took over the world again, in a musical & in the music charts with the film Grease & its soundtrack
Punk was a distance memory, a more refined Punk aka New Wave was now churning out belters for the masses .Outa this was a sub genre that growing increasingly popular after a few sporadic hits throughout the decade , Synth’s keyboards were becoming cheaper to use & buy , by up & coming Artists & Bands . Another game changer happen in mid 79’ by a guy who accidentally came across a synth whilst recording the traditional way ( Gary Numan ) , he stole the thunder off ( OMD , Ultravox , Human League to name but a few ) by having a No1 totally electronic sounding hit , that kicked started the Synthpop era, Tubeway Army - Are friends Electric .... all those aforementioned bands & many more would take over the charts in the next decade of the 80’s & beyond after Numan’s Electronic masterpiece.
Another fashion that begun in 79’ that had morphed outa the Punk explosion & was now gathering pace in London Soho district was
The New Romantics ( Blitz Kidz ) who’s flamboyant over the top dandy style anchored back to the Glam Rock era as well incorporating many other of the 70’s fashion , not to mentions even the 40’s & 50’s !!
Their hero been a man that had spent the whole of the 70’s been like a music chameleon embracing each fad very early & enjoying massive success , this also applied to another similar type trend setter group Roxy Music another staple of the New Romantics fave music preference
Lastly in late 79’ two other events changing happenings happened. The release of the Who Inspired rock opera film Quadraphenia came out kickstarting The Mods & Rockers revival with Ska from Two Tone being the main music in that fad & fashion
Also in America a rock DJ got sick of disco so joking promoted a Disco sucks ( Demolition) gathering at Chicago’s Comminsky Park night White Sox game , admission was a disco record that was then to be blown up with thousands of others too but the normal 20,000 crowd expected turned out to be 50,000 plus thousand frenzied fans. It got outa hand after the records were blown up damaging the pitch & many fans watching with flying vinyl .. The day Disco died!! Not really it just got even better from then on in, The cream rose to the top of disco acts , morphing into a classier lush sound of .. dance , funk , , jazz funk , jazz fusion Italia disco, soul jazz , unfortunately probably the best & classiest Disco band was Chic who didn’t survive the disco demise, so instead Nile & Bernard turned their talent to being producers, transforming the sound of major or future major stars .
Lastly a Chic hit was the catalyst of a genre of music that changed the world!! eventually !! Although in my opinion after the two major hits of this genre it’s been downhill ever since !!
Rappers Delight by the Sugarhill Gang then Kurtis Blows The Breaks were the very start & pinnacle of hip hop , rap IMO

The Bay City Rollers and KC and The Sunshine Band were the first musical groups that I really loved as a kid .. As time went on, I listened to KISS, AC/DC, Cheap Trick, then The Ramones, Blondie, etc ... Sometime in the early 2000s, after not having thought about The Rollers in 20+ years, I was going through my LPs and I put on Summerlove Sensation .. As the song played, I sat frozen, overwhelmed not simply with nostalgia, but at how incredibly perfect this song was, and how it was still better than anything ever .... I think part of the magic was how we as fans could relate to the "wow, this is actually happening" feeling, sort of like winning the lottery .. The BCRs, like KISS, was a grassroots phenomena that was as much about the fans and the fans connection to the music and each other, as it was about the music .... And the music has stood the test of time ..

Or this was right at the time of BCR dominance in the U.K.
th-cam.com/play/PLbO1DMzDZcpipwJR4uGBgWMERVBvJ8x9p.html
My first two favorite bands in life were the BCR’s and the original Alice Cooper Band. Strange pairing perhaps, but I was equally obsessed with both bands at exactly the same time in my childhood. Kind of like yourself, I later on got into stuff like Cheap Trick, Ramones, and AC/DC, and subsequently punk and hardcore… but it all began for me with the Bay City Rollers and Alice Cooper. I also had a rather lengthy period of my life where I had stopped listening to the Rollers, but back around Y2K when Napster was a thing, I downloaded a ton of those old BCR tunes and remembered just how great they were. By that point I had long since gotten rid of all my old (BCR) records from my youth, but I quickly set about buying them all again, and I’ve been listening ever since. Mostly it’s classic pop music that still retains it’s original appeal. Some of it sounds really dated and ridiculous, but the stuff that’s good is REALLY good.
Guilty as charged,this was some of the music of my youth .Of course I was 11 or 12 at the time.

They were fantastic. My Dad was from Glasgow (I’m Australian) so it was even more special. Researching an article at the moment, nice to see BCR are in the top 10 of boy bands, equaling 1D in record sales.
My sister, who is seven years older than me. She went to the BCR concert at the Indiana State Fair. She said it was so hot, the fans were over the top. She passed out and missed half of the concert.
I remember the Sid & Marty Kroftt productions. The BCR performed on the show on Saturday mornings.
I was at then concert, my first. Everybody else is screaming hysterically for the rollers. I'm the one screaming for them to shut up and sit down so I could hear Les sing My Lisa.
OMG, I had a pair of those black and white platform shoes... only with a narrower heel. I wore them to my graduation!😯
Brought back great memories of the school disco. Thanks for the show

Start watching the video , then wait a few seconds for the video to play & the listing to jump back to that present video playing & thus the next video inline on view below & so on if you wanna skip through , so no endless scrolling back to your present video position from the first few video’s if your too impatient .. 🤓
I’ve painstakingly searched out the very best video I can find .. that resembles it best sonically, the priority is that firstly & hopefully footage of the very time too .. if not available il ad a generic sound only video placer till someone uploads a descent video version or better combination vid comes along , I can replace it with. Ignore any dating on the videos if it says differently lots of factors why that’s the case. Usually the American artists & bands released their songs earlier, before they got released in the U.K.
… You’ve a complete Top 50 / 75 Chart decade of the 70’s with the very best sound & vision video tracks combo all in every single week after week chart entry order 🤓 plus I add just a few relevant of that very time a tv or film theme also , although a fair few entered the charts themselves anyway, has music was just that good back then … So you’ve got a complete 70’s year on year music library at your fingertips .. if you keep these links below …. … Enjoy AHB 🤓🎶👌🏻

@@KevinDoyle-r1w Thanks ..I had lots more but they’ve been taken off for copyrights which is ridiculous but I’ve lots more documentaries to upload in time also
was in high school they were my boys.just seen this video of the making of them.still love them,their songs 40 years later
Oh my such a beautiful video. I came from Kelso and used to look after the coats at Kelso and coldstream when the bay city rollers played there and I got to meet them all. They were all very friendly and the drummer gave me his drum sticks. Something i will never forget. Beautiful memories fabulous times ❤❤❤❤
No longer a fan but 'The Way I Feel Tonight' is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard and I genuinely believe the lads should have the money which is rightfully theirs because they worked for it.
I got heavily into the Bay City Rollers after working in a thrift shop and seeing one of their albums 40 years after its release. Someone bought it before I could get off my shift. Being a huge fan of all things 1970's, I ended up finding my own copy. I had always been more into punk rock and metal, but I visited the UK and saw Les play, saw Woody play, saw Alan's play, and met Derek. Watching the fans get excited like teenagers after what must have been 40 years of following them was incredible. There's something special about bands like the Bay City Rollers and their fan base. Maybe if you're a more cynical person you might write pop artists off, but I find Rollermania infectious and incredible. They were musicians and it was Alan's band at the end of the day. I love my pop and top 40 albums right alongside my obscure and dark ones, and I don't care what anyone says. Long live the Rollers and long live Alan, Ian and Les.
WOULD LIKE TO PUT THE RECORD STRAIGHT. THE ROLLERS WERE NOT ALANS BAND.. THEY WERE TO TALENTLESS BROTHERS, HE AND DEREK. THEY WOULD NEVER HAVE MADE IT WITHOUT LES MCKEOWN, AND ERIC FAULKNER. GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT.
Not sure what little miss caps-lock’s problem is just above me up there, but hopefully she gets all that pent up tension and frustration out of her system some day and learns that there’s a ‘w’ in the word “two”. Anyway, I’m like you. I just like what I like. Good tunes is good tunes. Doesn’t matter if it’s “rock”, “pop”, “art”, or fluff. Doesn’t matter if it’s one chord or a hundred. If it sounds good to my ears and moves me enough to feel something special, then I’m down. People who look through my record collection always seem a bit puzzled and ask me things like “How can you like both (so and so) *AND* (so and so) at the same time?”. I tell them it’s easy, just stop caring what others think about it. Most people limit themselves too much with what they’re “supposed to” listen to or not listen to. I literally feel sorry for them. It must be exhausting making all these rules for oneself to adhere to. You often hear people say that the Rollers were terrible songwriters, or that their songs were nothing more than lightweight fluff, and typically it’s not even an actual opinion founded in fact. It’s just a knee-jerk reaction to seeing a bunch of screaming teenage girls lose their shit over a band, like that somehow negates the potential of anything good in the music itself.
A lot of the BCR “fan club” people don’t like me so I wouldn’t be surprised if this is another one of their “fans”, lol. I didn’t even notice that comment until your reply. But yeah, I agree with you. I like lots of “bad” music. Way too many people tried to knock me for my taste in music or musical ability throughout my life. With art & music it’s about what inspires you as a creative, not what fan club members or critics think.
@@robynnsong In my book, not seeing eye to eye with the critics is a good thing. Not seeing eye to eye with fan club members? Even better. I’ve had a few run-ins with some of these fan club hive-minders myself through the years, so believe me, I understand just how belligerent they can get. It’s almost like a gang mentality with those people. Musical simpletons, incapable of having an original thought or an opinion of their own, imposing their narrow views on anyone who disagrees with them. They all seem to be sharing the same low-wattage brain. Infantile, ridiculous, simple-minded.
So, keep on keeping on, and just enjoy being a thorn in their side. Cheers from a fellow “bad” music lover. 😁

I was grade eight and it was top album then, about 1975-76..Saturday Night song would come on radio from Chicago's WLS every day,and night..Couldn't wait to hear it..Sp awful to hear they were ripped off so much money think by their own manager..
Yes Great Video from my friend Nathan. We are both Huge Bay City Rollers Fans.
Ian brought a fresh new approach to the band and he was such a beautiful man,rest in peace Ian you will never be forgotten
"Shang A Lang" is a top top tune...period. I don't care who played on it or who wrote it, it's a killer pop song. The Rollers were a great band, shafted by their management and probably victims of their own quick success. For some unknown reason they're seen as some kind of a joke band nowadays. Quite the opposite. A genuine phenomenon.

The Rollers were a good band, not a great band.
Loved these guy's and still do today,
Their outfits look ridiculous now, but back then it was taken seriously for that (our) age group. The 1970's were a wonderful time to be alive. If I could go back, I wouldn't change a thing.
In the 6th grade, a bunch of we girls who adored the BCR would join hands to form a formidable line & walk around during recess repeating "S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y.... NIGHT!!!" We thought we were so grown up and cool.

I have them on my ringtone! EVERYONE Dances every time my phone rings S-A-T-U-R-DAY NIGHT!
I was 8 in 1974, my sister was 15 and she came home with ‘Summerlove Sensation ‘ and I loved it.. .today it’s mp3s not records but my 70s folder still includes that song along with Remember and Bye Bye Baby. Some might think me growing up a gay guy would explain why I loved those tracks but they would be wrong.. I loved those songs back then because, even though I was only 8 and 9 years old, I knew they were just f-ckin brilliant songs man !
NOW I am watching this documentary in the dreary vaccine world of 2021 and it makes me really appreciate these guys gift to us all back then. Respect to these lovely lads. They can take away the money guys but they can’t take away your music and your charisma.

The mania is so true. I saw the Rollers in 75, n 76 in Australian, and fairdinkum, after the show at Festival Hall, all the seats were flattened, it was like a war zone.. I took my girls to see One Direction at their peak, I love those boys, but seriously, it was like a nuns tea party.
Raelene nobody both my sisters we’re BCR mad with everything they wore covered in Tartan , & the tartan Of they’re favourite band member , I think blue tartan was Eric’s colour, my older sister fave , not sure what Woody’s was , seem to think & remember my mum sewed a lot of yellow tartan on to items & a white tartan!!! , so maybe that was Woody’s !! 🤩 It was mayhem here also I remember my sister telling me of the craziest things at the concerts 😀 we were spoilt for choice back then IMO the 70’s were the
Greatest music days we’ve ever had , who’d of thought all that great music produced WEEKLY by hundreds of bands & artist would ever end !! To what we have today , when maybe you get a dozen descent songs a year if that , unlike our weekly doses of 30-40 great tracks back then 🤩🤩👍🏻
Woody was yellow, Leslie's was blue, and Eric's was red, (like the traditional Macgregor tartan), Derek's was green, and Alan's was a navy blue. There are still thousands of amazing artists around, but not mainstream now, thanks to sites like TH-cam. The mainstream stuff is controlled by assholes in suits, the curators are now the creators. The assholes have been worming their way in for a long time, like a parasitic virus, now they have completely taken over the ridiculous top 40. Yep must have been fun having crazy sisters with all those stories. As soon as time machines are on the market, Im going back to the 70s. Maybe Im there already......

great playlist, thanks
I loved the interview pieces with Carol Strauss. She speaks of the boys and the fans with such affection; I hope the reality at the time reflected that.
She's such a wonderful person.
I live in a city of approx 35,000 on the prairies of western Canada 🇨🇦, and it amazed me how quickly the BCR caught on around here in '77/'78, when I was 12-13 yrs old.
I had a pair of red & white striped socks, and my friends & I clamored for anything tartan!!
I was in Richmond bc (same age) yes, they were huge! ❤
@@goldiedover9294 Wasn't it amazing @goldiedover? My younger sister and I had our favorite band members, we are in our mid to late 50s now, were just reminiscing about them recently.
I still have several of their songs on my playlist, takes me back to that time in our lives every time!
They really have a very beautiful sound.
A very good documentary of a boy band who were very big for 3 or 4 years and unknowingly at the time taken advantage of. In all this we had interviews with Les,woody,Alan and Derek but nothing from Eric which i found rather strange. I still have great memories of this band as they brought so much joy to a lot of people at the time.
Eric has never been very big on doing interviews, and is even less of a fan of discussing his time with the Rollers, so it’s not that surprising to me that he doesn’t appear in this. Personally I would have liked to have seen them go into the Duncan era (‘79-‘81), and maybe talk to Duncan Faure himself. That particular era too often gets overlooked, and they were actually making some pretty decent music at the time.
Now, I have to say it. The whole “boy band” thing has never really sat well with me. I mean yes, I get that the Rollers were basically the template for the boy band market, but they actually did play their own instruments. Whether they were accomplished musicians or not has no bearing on the fact that if one is in a “boy band”, then their performance is generally limited to singing and dancing… and even then the dancing is all choreographed. The Rollers never fit the bill there. It’s worth pointing out since the term “boy band” carries a *LOT* of baggage.
@@Shikta-poobah67 Yes i see your point of view as the Rollers did play their own instruments and probably should have been known as a group. But they were very young at the time of their success and that is why the Boy Band label started with them and went on a lot later with acts such as Boyzone and One Direction even though those last two acts didn't play any instruments . In fact how can they call any act a Band if they don't play instruments!
@@edwardpink2759 Yeah I’ve never really understood that terminology myself. It really should be “boy groups” rather than “boy bands”, but I don’t make the rules. All I know is that over the years there have been thousands… maybe even hundreds of thousands of bands made up of members who were still in their teens, or in a few instances even preteens, that were never once referred to as “boy bands”. When the L.A. punk/power pop band Redd Kross (or Red Cross as they were originally known) released their first record, their bass player was only 11, and the oldest band member was 17. They were officially signed to a record label and already touring the local circuit. There are tons of other examples, especially with punk and garage bands.
I don’t know. The bizarre usage of the “boy band” labeling, especially in recent times has been rather confusing. I see people these days often try to label the Beatles as a boy band, which is utterly ridiculous and wrong. Maybe a case could be made for the Monkees, but I don’t even think it applies with them. The very first group I can think of that *TRULY* fit the category was Menudo, in the early 80’s.
@@Shikta-poobah67 It's good to communicate with someone who knows and understands what they are talking about. Best of luck to you in the future Brewster.
Interesting that it's 13 Yr old girls who were targeted. Now it's binary, identifying as a cat etc. Dearie me.
Songs make me smile and remember a long time ago
Great documentary - Love the Rollers!!
I was a huge BCR fan and still am. I was ecstatic to find a BCR group on Facebook (several actually) and that Les is active, both on social media and still touring.
I was in my early 50s when I got a reply to a comment and suddenly, I was 12 years old again. I squeed loud enough to wake the dead and nearly fell out of my chair! omg It was delicious!
Great, all except for the fact that Eric wasn’t in it at all, they completely ignored the Duncan years, and didn’t even mention the Dedication album (one of their best). A bit rushed, in my opinion. However yes, they talked to some great people and touched on some good points, but there should have been quite a bit more discussed.
Ohmygosh - The Bay City Rollers. I loved them so much ❤

Use these ⬅️➡️ under the videos to move through them ( much easier ) 🤓🎶🎶☀️☀️👌🏻👇🏻 I’ve painstakingly searched out the best video I can find .. that resembles it sonically, the priority is that firstly & hopefully footage of the very time too .. if not available il ad a generic sound only video placer till someone adds a descent version comes along.
I’m about half way through adding the tracks into the yr 1978 so when completed you’ve a complete Top 50 / 75 decade of the 70’s set of the best sound & vision video tracks & in every single weeks chart entry order, a complete 70’s library at your fingertips …. … Enjoy 🤓🎶👌🏻
