Bay City Rollers Perform 'Summerlove Sensation' at TopPop Concert
Venue: TopPop
Location: Hilversum, NL, Netherlands
Date: April 20, 2021
The live recording of "Summerlove Sensation" by the Bay City Rollers aired on TopPop on April 20, 2021, coinciding with the passing of lead singer Les McKeown just weeks prior. At this time, the band was celebrating their legacy while mourning the loss of one of their most iconic members. The Bay City Rollers' career peaked in the mid-1970s, with their catchy tunes and flamboyant style captivating audiences worldwide. Their album "Wouldn't You Like It" was released in 1976, shortly before their international fame solidified. Interestingly, "Summerlove Sensation" was released as a single earlier that same year, showcasing their ability to produce infectious pop hits. The tribute performance serves as a reminder of McKeown's lasting impact on music and the joy he brought to fans, keeping the spirit of the Rollers alive even after their most commercially successful period had passed.
