Bay City Rollers is a compilation album released by Scottish band the Bay City Rollers. It was released exclusively in North America to launch the band's career. The compilation, which hit No. 1 on the RPM Canadian album chart on 7 February 1976[4] and reached as high as No. 20 on the US album chart, included the US and Canadian number-one single "Saturday Night".[5]

The LP contained tracks culled mostly from the band's first three UK-only albums: five songs from Rollin', four songs from Once Upon a Star and one song from Wouldn't You Like It? – along with one new song. In addition, this album contains the US mix of "Summerlove Sensation" (a fuller mix with strings), which later became available on CD on the US release Definitive Collection.
