The Bay City Rollers in 1975 were at the height of their popularity, with hit after hit. A reprint of an out-of-print official video that lets you enjoy their shining figure to the fullest has been decided! The true identity of this work is the video work "THE BEST OF THE BAY CITY ROLLERS: SHANG-A-LANG". It is a disc that has been meticulously reprinted from the Japanese laser disc released in 1993. The subtitle "SHANG-A-LANG" is of course their hit song, but for this work it has a different meaning. In fact, this title is the name of a TV program. It was a music variety show produced and broadcast by Manchester TV station "Granada Television (now ITV Granada)" in 1975, and the hosts were the Bay City Rollers. This program was broadcast in a series for 20 weeks, and this is a selection of the best episodes from that series. Of course, the quality is superb and completely official. There are some genuine official works, but the big thing is that the original source was properly produced for TV broadcasting. The hit "JAPAN TOUR 1976" released the other day was also an official reprint, but that one made full use of documentary film that was not intended for commercialization. Some of them were poorly preserved and had white line noise, but this work does not have any such scenes. The glossy and beautiful screen is unwavering throughout. The content of this work is a valuable and fun studio performance. I am not familiar with the composition of the broadcast version, but all the scenes used in this work are performance scenes of hit songs. In Japanese terms, it feels like a collection of singing scenes from "The Best Ten" and "Night Hit Studio". And what is written there is a shining hit song + α. The main is of course the host BAY CITY ROLLERS, but in fact, it is not only that, but you can also enjoy plenty of guest artists. This work itself is a shuffled composition, but here we will organize the lineup to make it easier to understand. Bay City Rollers (11 songs)・The Knights of Edinburgh: Shang-A-Lang/Summer Love Sensation/Saturday Night・The Rumored Bay City Rollers: Bye Bye Baby/Angel Baby/My Teenage Heart/La Belle Jeane/Keep On Dancing・Other: Oath Of Youth/Give A Little Love/All Of Me Loves All Of You Guests (8 groups, 8 songs)・Glam Rock: Love Like You Be Mine (Gary Glitter)/Love In The Sun (THE GLITTER BAND)/Sweet Cheatin' (Alvin Stardust)/Thanks For The Memory (SLADE)・Pop/Rock: Lucky Man (MR. BIG)/Boy Meets Girl (Lulu)/Three Steps To Heaven (SHOWADDYWADDY)/I Can Do It (The RUBETTES)... and so on. Since it was a 1975 program, the BAY CITY ROLLERS part is centered around the "ONCE UPON A STAR" number. Other singles are sprinkled in, including the rare "Oath Of Youth". The guests are also quite cool. MR. BIG is of course a famous British band from the 70s, and rock and roll bands SHOWADDYWADDY and the familiar SLADE also appear. In Lulu's performance, the BAY CITY ROLLERS also appear as cast members. In addition, Alvin Stardust and Gary Glitter, who were glam stars known only to those in the know, and THE GLITTER BAND, which started as his backing band, appear one after another. Gary in particular is still in prison for repeated sexual crimes, and it is hopeless to see him return as an official product. This work, which records their appearance in super high quality, is truly a treasure. The members alone are enough to make you choke with the 70s color, but their movements are even more intense. Gary Glitter shows off his chest hair in his shiny costume, and Dave Hill's yellow and red polka dot costume is eye-catching. Alvin Stardust's face looks like it's about to be buried in his hair and sideburns, and the members of THE RUBETTES are too excited about their actions and their mime is sloppy. Among them, the main characters, BAY CITY ROLLERS, are refreshing. Of course, their tartan costumes and hairstyles are very 70s, but in their case, they don't look strange at all, they're just cool. You can enjoy their shining charm that is no wonder they dominated the era. The famous songs and appearance of the BAY CITY ROLLERS at the peak of their power, and the diverse guests are also fun, making this a masterpiece video. This is the best of the TV program "SHANG-A-LANG", but at the same time, it can also be enjoyed as a "moving best album". The out-of-print official video work has been meticulously made into a DVD. This is a selection of the best of the TV show "SHANG-A-LANG" broadcast in 1975, meticulously restored from the Japanese laser disc released in 1993. The contents are studio performances of hit songs, with hosts BAY CITY ROLLERS performing 11 songs and 8 songs by guest artists. This is a masterpiece video that exudes the scent of the 70s from every corner, including the performers, costumes, and show sets, which are mainly glam rock.
