Bay City Rollers at t in the park 7 Years, 9 Months ago  
www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p040jpjw/t...016-bay-city-rollers

Enjoyable performance by the 70s superstars including a rendition of the Jonahthon King produced hit "Keep on Dancing". Its a shame that Les Mckeown didn't look after himself a bit better. There seems to be a lot of session musicians, I hope this isn't covering up for the fact that the rollers couldn't really play.

Doesn't Alan Longmuir have a sex conviction?
If so, it is another example of the BBC rule about appearances being applied to one and not the other.

That was Derek Longmuir his brother and former drummer of the rollers. The conviction was for looking at dodgy pictures. He says that they were viewed by a guest at his house and he accepted the caution because he didn't want a media circus, and I believe him. Why do these posts always have to come down to paedos.

Even if this was true, which it isn't you can't expect the bbc to check every single criminal record of every band member of every group that appears in a concert performance or archive footage, in case someone gets offended by the fact that there is a figure in the background that has looked at dodgy pictures.

Sadly Robbie that is the point; the BBC should not be censoring broadcasts by cherry picking who is unacceptable - they may not be aware of some convictions, they may never see certain offenders arrested or tried, they should not make moral judgements that murder is OK but false allegations are true.

Oh my goodness. Deep apologies to Alan Longmuir.

I do expect them to check the background of each and every performer actually.
Either ban all of them or none of them.

Pretty good... though it struck me that the No.1 pop act of 1974 have physically morphed into the No.2 pop act of 1974 - The Wombles.

Yes, Les has become a bit of a bloater, but Alan and Woody are in pretty good shape. I hope they earn some money from these shows as they got ripped off the first time around.
