'70s Teenpop: Tam Paton
http://70steenpop.blogspot.com/2011/02/tam-paton.html
Wednesday, February 23, 2011. As some people may know I ran the Bay City Rollers Discography Page website from 2000 to 2010. But due to "server problems" that site was taken down in 2010. Mainly, I am talking about the Phil Wainman profile I did, as well as the infamous Tam Paton interview (I was once asked to submit my tapes to someone who was planning to sue him. A request which I flatly denied). I will publish the Tam Paton interview first, to be followed by the Phil Wainman profile soon. Anyway then,...

'70s Teenpop: Shaun Cassidy ...on Record.
http://70steenpop.blogspot.com/2012/09/shaun-cassidy-on-record.html
Saturday, September 1, 2012. Shaun Cassidy .on Record. There was a public outcry. Or at least a Facebook petition. But at long last, as of this past spring (2012), Shaun Cassidy's complete back catalogue is now available on the very nearly obsolete format that is a. Better late than never! My good old vinyl never looked - or sounded - so fine. Alas, the time for a reappraisal is ripe. With his family tree as it is (Son of Shirley Jones and Jack Cassidy, half-brother of David), clearly Shaun was poised for.

'70s Teenpop: Child
http://70steenpop.blogspot.com/2013/10/child_5.html
Saturday, October 5, 2013. When you google "Child 70s band", one of the top results you get is this question posted on a site called doyouremember.co.uk some time back: , Does anyone remember the 70's pop group called Child, there were good looking twins called Tim and Keith Atack in it, nobody seems to remember them". Formed in Yorkshire, England, in the mid '70s, Child first consisted of Graham Bilbrough (Vocals); Dave Cooper (Guitar) and twins Keith (Bass) and Tim (Drums) Atack. Appeared on another in...

'70s Teenpop: Kenny
http://70steenpop.blogspot.com/2011/02/kenny.html
Wednesday, February 16, 2011. This piece was initially written for and published at The Glamrocking of the '70s. Originally known as Chufff, a North London Progressive Rock outfit which had supported the likes of Hawkwind, The Edgar Broughton Band, and The Troggs, Kenny were brought to the collective attention of successful writing/producing team Bill Martin and Phil Coulter (Sandie Shaw, Cliff Richard, Bay City Rollers) in late 1974. And that act, they thought, was Chufff. Initially the five-piece Chuff...

http://70steenpop.blogspot.com/2011/11/bay-city-rollers-complete-japanese.html
Saturday, November 12, 2011. Bay City Rollers - The Complete Japanese Singles Discography 1972 - 2004. According to most so-called rock encyclopedias and on-line BCR bios, by December 1976 Rollermania had pretty much run its course. Not so in Japan, because when the Rollers finally arrived there on December the 13th 1976, it was Beatlemania-all-over-again-time at Tokyo's Narita airport! So, yet another relic of The Bay City Rollers Discography Page re-emerges - albeit revised and updated; ALL 32 (in 32 y...

'70s Teenpop: dEAd ENd KIdS
http://70steenpop.blogspot.com/2012/07/dead-end-kids.html
Friday, July 20, 2012. OK, I gotta admit that I just don't know too much about those guys. To begin with, it is fairly diffucult to find SOMEthing/ANYthing on them on the almighty www. But here,. Is my entire knowledge, such as it is, on the subject at hand. I came across their sole LP, "Breakout", in a bargain bin somewhere circa 1977 and bought it on a whim, because I sort of sussed them out as Rollers-wannabees/contenders for the teenybop throne. Well, just take one look at that cover, will ya. But wh...
