Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
The mid-70s belonged to a group of hopelessly plaid Scotsmen who named themselves after a northern Michigan resort town. With an affect on fans that resembled Beatlemania in terms of screaming, fainting, and pledges of undying love, the Bay City Rollers enjoyed a string of U.K. pop hits along with modest American success. In retrospect, the band's music is still sugary enough to give listeners a toothache; however, there is a certain charming innocence to tunes like "Saturday Night," "Summer Love Sensation," and (of course) "Shang-a-Lang." Boy-band nostalgia, anyone? --S. Duda

Bay City Rollers: The Definitive Collection
Great CD from the wonderful and fun Bay City Rollers. I was never really into them or anything, but I watched an episode of October Road and they were playing songs from this CD throughout the show and I just HAD to have it. Great stuff and makes ya feel like a kid again!
Rollermania is alive and well and still clad in tartan
Truthfully, I was too young for Rollermania. And I wasn't a resident of the U.K. so I never experienced the full-on rage that existed that brief but sweet time when the Rollers ruled teenage hearts. A coworker recently turned me on to the delights of this battered band of brothers and others. Their music bespoke of a time that really didn't exist in the 70s, their songs depicting a time of Shang-a-Lang and Sha La La La so far removed from staggering gasoline prices, Studio 54 decadence and Watergate. They were beautifully youthful, terribly dressed and just what the decade needed -- something to distract us from the real problems at hand.
I recommend this disk to anyone who wants to remember a time they don't quite remember and want to forget what's going on in the world right now.
A nice collection of hits
This is a nice collection of their hits. The complaint that I have is that extra music was added to "Give a Little Love". The original version is fine. But overall, a good CD with interesting linear notes.
