Bye, Bye, Baby

For all of you die-hard Bay City Rollers fans, Les McKeown has snuffed it.

I was a Roller fan, had the tartan scarf and wrist bands. What a shock and still relatively young too.

RIP Les. For what it's worth, you were the best lead singer.

As did most of the girls in the seventies, complete with rolled up jeans.

Re: Bye, Bye, Baby

They were my favourite band of the 70's.

He was still touring. I was going to see him last year at one of my local theatres - cancelled of course because of covid.

I know it would have been a brilliant night.

R.I.P. Les McKeown.

I see that the BBC with their customary incompetence, showed a picture of Les McKeown's fellow band-mate Eric Faulkner when doing a feature on McKeown's death.

The Bay City Rollers wrote absolutely brilliant songs. Such a shame Les McKeown has gone.

They will be missed ....
