Bay City Rollers - Rock And Roll Love Letter • TopPop

[@ericburow6436]

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

[@wernernelte4829]

Yes, I agree fully.

[@macaktosa8874]

YES!

[@nealm6764]

Who knew that faking your music, lip syncing and not even playing your instruments, could be so bad for your health.

[@mrob75]

@@nealm6764 be careful…the scenario you just described was the success formula for a venue known as MTV.

[@naturalmax8474]

now that these 3 are gone...i somehow feel guil;ty for not admitting my love for them as musicians when they were on top or admitting how much i really loved thier music.Shame on me

[@deniseang6358]

I'll miss them forever been with them long time

[@karenstoddard8278]

Sweet Ian ❤️ Stole my 15 year old heart back then! Rest in peace💔

[@SHB-vp7ns]

One of my favorite songs 🥀R.I.P🥀🖤Thank you for sharing!

[@thadschaeffer2563]

My grandmother and I would watch the Bay City Rollers every Saturday morning on television. I still have some of their records.

[@lyssah819]

I have their albums too. Do you remember the name of the show they were on, on Saturdays? For the life of me I can't remember.

[@robertabaker4160]

Sweet memories

[@Xsarabee]

R.I.P. Les. How I loved you when I was ten years old! Thank you for all the golden memories.

[@rachelled6763]

Oh yeah! Just what I needed! Love, love, love, the Rollers! ❤❤❤❤

[@pattibrooks1907]

I first heard the music of The Bay City Rollers in 1975 in December age 19 ! I got the record album that had the song Saturday Night ! I got that record album for Christmas of 1975 !

[@jaytakahashi123]

"Daer mama, papa, hey your boy is NOT doing fine anymore..." I loved Les very much. Requiescat in pace.

[@louisaklimentos7583]

We lost 3 beautiful legends . I was a big fan back in the day .

[@skyelynnstorme3226]

This song was always my favorite. I use to listen to this song all day. Great music to the bay city rollers🎸🎸💖💖💖😊😊😊😉😉👍👍👍

[@robertmasina7388]

I know the band was geared towards teeny bopper girls but even I as a male back then liked this song when it was on the radio/charts.

[@savethetomboys815]

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.

[@philfrank9226]

Wonderfull words.

[@lindabernhagen907]

Eric was my fave too!!! So dreamy with his dark hair and blue eyes. :}

[@armandgallanosa]

Remember my friend's older sister was in high-school and turned us onto the BCR. Loved the music at 8 years old. They were just cool then. Her bedroom was adorned with their posters and teen beat magazines. Great times listening to them and hanging out by the pool 👍💯👍😎 music was great then and still holds up now.

[@paulbrighton3303]

Rest In Peace Les McKeown. You broke a lot of hearts in the 70s and upon your passing. A true pop idol.

[@maggiemae7539]

I hope you know that he never existed!

[@wernernelte4829]

I agree fully. He was a Pop Star and very interesting 4 girls & boys also!

[@wernernelte4829]

@@maggiemae7539 a joke, a fake what U write.

[@allisonhayes8082]

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.

R.I.P. Les McKeown... 😢

[@jamiebranson7818]

Bay City Rollers are teen rock. One personality of a rock station said "Money Honey" was legitimate rock song.

[@laurieeno2118]

That was a good one. They actually had some decent rock sings towards their later years. Not a total fluff band.
