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

    R.I.P. Alan Longmuir (1947-2018), Ian Mitchell (1958-2020), and Les McKeown (1955-2021). Three legends of rock-and-roll.

    My older, more sophisticated cousin introduced me to them when I was 10 yrs old. I instantly fell in love with
    Eric. My musical taste has since expanded and evolved but my God they are as good as I had remembered.
    Eric was soooooo good looking! I still got butterflies watching this now at 52 years old!!
    They are REALLY good!! Still annoys me they weren’t more respected as musicians.

Her bedroom was adorned with their posters and teen beat magazines. Great times listening to them and hanging out by the pool 👍💯👍😎 music was great then and still holds up now.

      Yes, he did break a lot of hearts-mine included. He was real-human. He experienced a great deal of trauma in his life, and hardship. Despite all appearances to the contrary, he had little self-esteem. Much of his trauma and demons plagued him throughout his life pre-, post-Rollers. Understanding him as a real person, and as an adult myself, I think I love him even more. I certainly respect him.
