Phil Coulter's beautifull Eulogy for Les McKeown of the Bay City Rollers

[@MarilynKartis]

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.

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

[@prezakid9]

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.

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.

[@cathymckay5915]

Yes definitely, gone too soon!

[@cathymckay5915]

Loved the piano version of Saturday night too!

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 ✌️

Highs and lows is right...And so much thanks go to you Phil for all the great songs. Respect,

[@rha4374]

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.

The gentleman responsible for the melodies for many of the earlier songs of the Bay City Rollers.

I held it together until he played the piano, that’s when I lost it. R.IP. Les.

[@paulcoleman6823]

The biggest band in the world in 1975-1977 ,a great singer in Les McKeown Rip

[@sabinedraxler90]

Wunderschön❤

[@paulrogers7067]

I pity he was the only member recorded on their early albums. Session musicians were used

[@alexandermacdougall7873]

I was unaware he had passed away. Are any of the original lineup left?

[@habej305]

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

[@jakemouton6559]

I wish that nobody Clark could stay with the band because les Was replacement lead singer

[@donnamcpherson3000]

If you go to the documentary Rollermania this writer said that they did not have the ability to play or write. He is so full of of..........

[@judis6224]

Eric wrote songs later on after firing these guys and singing and playing,if they cared about them,they would of stopped this.

[@donnamcpherson3000]

This guy would have got all the pueblo shing and he f I'd mot want them to write their own stuff. Still trying to cash in sick.
