5.0 out of 5 stars It's Les McKeown's Legandary BCR
This is a great CD with re-recorded versions of several BCR hits. Les and his band have done a great job updating the oldies. This also has some new ones that are just wonderful, like M.O.N.E.Y., "Heart's On Fire" and it's worth the price just to hear "Holding On" IMO. It's one of the best songs I've heard in a while.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Definite "Must Add" to Every Roller Fan Collection
Not the original line-up but rather Les McKeown's (original lead singer) retooling of Rollers classics along with some of McKeown's solo tunes. This album features adds a slighty edgier rock sound to classics such as Saturday Night, Rock 'n Roll Love Letter and others with less-than-polished mixing and engineering. This collection also serves as a excellent reminder of...

5.0 out of 5 stars A GOOD ADDITION FOR ALL ROLLER FANS, April 19, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Very Best of Bay City Rollers (Audio CD)
EVEN THOUGH IT WAS NOT THE ORIGINAL ROLLERS THAT I REMEMBER FROM MY TEENS, IT WAS STILL A GREAT CD. TO HEAR FROM LES MCKEOWN AFTER ALL THIS TIME WAS WONDERFUL !!! THE NEW SONGS WERE REALLY GOOD AND I ENJOYED THE WHOLE CD, BUT TO HEAR HIS REMAKES OF THE OLD BCR'S TUNES WAS GREAT. EVERY ROLLER FAN NEEDS THIS TO COMPLETE THEIR COLLECTION.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing!, May 12, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Very Best of Bay City Rollers (Audio CD)
The title leads you to believe it's Bay City Rollers, but it's really Les McKeown's remakes of BCR classics. It is just not the same. It's "okay...", but not the good old rockin' stuff.

I was very excited to hear the Rollers are back together,it's about time.I've waited a long time for them to make a come back.I've been a fan since they first came to the U.S.A.and I never gave up on them even tho eveyone else I knew did.I knew if I waited long enough they'd come back.I can't wait to hear their new music.So in the words of a true Roller fan,"Keep On Rolling",and wishes do come true. p.s. Woody your the BEST! I hope you sing lead more often,you've got a great voice! A Roller Fan Forever! J.R.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not the original Bay City Rollers, September 4, 1999

chewy@spacestar.net (Northwest Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Very Best of Bay City Rollers (Audio CD)
Although I knew when I purchased this album that it was Les's 70's rollers I bought it anyway. It was worth the $8.00 but I wouldn't have paid more. The rollers have to understand that they aren't the rollers without all five of the original members: Alan,Woody,Eric,Leslie, and Derek.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!-It's Les!!, April 14, 2002

Beth Bell (Lewistown, Illinois United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Very Best of Bay City Rollers (Audio CD)
The CD is wonderful! Les even puts a new spin on some of the older BCR numbers! This is the Cd that has the same tracks as his solo CD Love Letters. Highly recommend for any fan or anyone that enjoyed the Bay City Rollers' music in the 70's
