Book Reviews of Bay City Babylon: The Unbelievable but True Story of the Bay City Rollers

Book Review: Confirmed all I knew, and taught me things I didn't.
Summary: 5 Stars

I absolutley loved this book. I read it in one day. From back, to front, to back again. Two days later I picked it up and read it all, again. I've owned this book for about a month now, and I've read it 5 times. I thought I knew eveything about the Bay City Rollers, until I read Mr. Coys book. I never realized how crazy it was for these guys and all the things that went on. I see that Tam Paton has his pro's and cons. Still, if it wasn't for him, they wouldn't have become what they did. I never knew how emotional Eric was or what 'Money Honey' was about, or how bad things really were between the members.To have been a fan for so many years, and to think I knew it all, and then to learn so much more in just a few hours. These guys are my all time favorite band and I just wish they could bury the hatchet and make things work. I read this book, as well as 'Shang-A-Lang' and 'Bye Bye Baby'. This was my favorite of the 3. Very informative. Great job, Mr Wayne Coy!

Summary of Bay City Babylon: The Unbelievable but True Story of the Bay City Rollers

Bay City Babylon tells the story of the unlikely pop phenomenon that was the Bay City Rollers-from their humble Scottish beginnings to worldwide fame and adulation, and what's happened to them since. It's a classic tale of rock stardom with all the trappings, excesses, anguish, and exhilaration that go with it. Featuring interviews with band members and those that were along for the Rollermania ride in the '70s. Plus, many never before published photographs.
