By the time he turned fifteen, he had left school to pursue a career as an electrician, blissfully unaware of the whirlwind that awaited him. Suddenly, he found himself living the life of a superstar, whisked away in limousines, pursued by frenzied fans on every continent, and thrust into the ranks of one of the bestselling groups in history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBetween 1971 and 1977, Edinburgh's Bay City Rollers achieved ten top-ten hit singles, four top-ten albums, two number-one singles and two number-one albums. For five years, they were the biggest pop teen sensation since the Beatles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut the music industry was not all glitz and glamour. Stuart had no inkling of the ruthless machinery behind the scenes, exploiting his talent and dreams.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRollermania swept the globe, the Bay City Rollers conquered hearts and charts, selling a staggering 300 million records.
