My sister loved the BCR's...they were the blight of my young life. Tartan everywhere, teenage girls swooning, I may have felt differently if I hadn't been 10, I may have liked having a house full of teenage girls if I'd been 16

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

They are dropping off at an alarming rate. Ian Mitchell in Sept. Alan Longmuir a couple of years back, Billy Lyle, ex Pilot and Alan Parsons project. They partied hard for sure. Not sure about the drummer who got locked up for paodophilia. Maybe he should have been in the Who 😂

Young. Frightening.
Make the most out of life people.

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

In terms of mass publicity , hysteria etc. For teenage girls mostly. I would say it was second only to Beatlemania. There was no social media or videos in those days either.

Didn't the Bay City Rollers end up with very little money?

I'm sure someone else wrote their songs for them and when that happens a large slice of royalties ends up in the songwriters pockets? I'm sure they had a manager that liked to take a way too generous cut also? Many a group and artist have ended up absolutely skint despite mega sales and top 10 hits.

I read about group (went on strike) XTC who ended up skint cos they signed a most appalling contract with Virgin Records. Private jet travelling mega stars aside i.e. the music industry seems to be ruthless!

Think so,like many.Had a manager Tam somebody or other.
They would have been happy of course with the booze ,the dope and the young girls.

They could have told some stories I bet.

Yes indeed, a folly and naivety of youth thing!

I'd guess most of these ripped off groups and artists got way too distracted from financial matters by means of their parallel universe lifestyle involving excess, Godlike status and hero-worship.

I would have been myself.
Having limitless money and time on hands is toxic and kills ,literally.

It's similiar to high paid footballers. Those under 21 should be limited to 50k per YEAR and have the rest placed in Trust until they attain 21 yrs of age.

Musically, I wouldn't have a clue about who would be or have been the biggest band since the Beatles don't mean just selling records either, just musically.

My guess as musicians collectively, would be Focus, they were all superb musicians.

Funnily enough I liked Focus, bought the album Moving Waves, which had the brilliant Hocus Pocus on.
