    The Bay City Rollers were a gift from Scotland to the world. Beautiful tribute to a beautiful man. Rest in Peace, Les. We won’t let the music die.

    Someone once told me that a great song will still shine even if only played on a piano or an acoustic guitar, this is one of those songs. Beautiful tribute to Les, and may he rest easy.

    What a beautiful tribute to Les, the piano version of Saturday Night was very haunting and a lovely way to on. Thank you. ❤

    Im a 63 year old man from Edinburgh, and a knew les his brother harry and his dad Francis, i was never a bcr fan , but i Will say there was nothing about the McKeown's," not" to like, Francis befriended my dad believe it or not, because my old man kept pigeons , Francis was acutely deaf, and my dad didn't know how to sign but when it came pigeons fhey could communicate just fine 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 happy healthy peace ✌️

    I can't believe mine is only the fifth comment under this beautiful video and tribute! It deserves millions. Touching piano version of Saturday Night. Can't help but remember an entire era that is gone forever.

    Just about brought a tear with this exquisite tribute Phil, may i add my memory off the BCR taking over the "tattie" shed whilst both my friends band's were practicing prior to their appearance , namely clockmill lane, and sneaky pete. I was roadie n driver for clockmill aka Dan's band. However,as the shed belongs to the smashing man Davy Paton unfortunately Tam's brother they got priority over us before fistycuffs broke out! I would have liked Les to have sung Imagine ❤ peace to to world Phil thanks for everything you're a wonderful human being on a horrible planet.

      Derek, Eric and Woody are still with us. Alan passed July 2018 and Ian Mitchell, who replaced Alan in 1976, passed September 2020.
