Watched online; mediocre print.
Just another excuse to parade a succession of rock acts across the screen, each performing 1 number. This one has some famous ones, including a very young Frankie Avalon (b. '39).
Most of the acts are not really rock, just teen pop.
Good to see/hear Carl Perkins; wonder if he would have made a bigger career if Elvis hadn't come along.
Too many songs in the Soundtracks to count. Connie Francis is listed in the cast, but not on that page, and I don't think I saw/heard her.
I hope this subgenre will end soon.
Vanguard Prod., distr. Warner, dir. Lockwood; 5
