Les McKeown, the singer who led the Bay City Rollers in their most successful period, has died aged 65.

His family said that he “died suddenly at home”, and asked for privacy following “the shock of our profound loss”. No cause of death has been announced.

McKeown, who was raised in an Edinburgh tenement block, sang the Scottish group’s UK No 1 Bye Bye Baby as well as Top 10 hits such as Shang-a-Lang and Summerlove Sensation, and led them into a phase of US success in the mid-70s.

The Bay City Rollers formed in 1964, originally with singer Gordon Clark, primarily playing covers of US pop and R&B songs. They broke through in 1971 with Keep on Dancing, but their popularity faltered, and Clark left in 1973 to be replaced by McKeown.

The handsome singer quickly amassed a teenage following and took the band back to the Top 10 in 1974 with Remember (Sha-La-La-La), the first in a run of hit singles that cemented the group as one of UK’s most popular – and screamed over – groups. In all, they sold over 120m records.
