Bay City Rollers Were Bigger Than Westlife

Bay City Roller Les McKeown tells The Glasgow Daily Record that Westlife just can’t compete with the original Scottish boyband. He asked, “Do Westlife have a life outside of the British Isles? Does anyone in the US know who they are? They’ve just not cracked it. I think our success was down to sincerity and the fact that we had a good looking singer with a great voice. That’s why The Bay City Rollers are the second biggest boyband in the world after The Beatles.”
