Alan Dale takes the title role as a singer who stages a concert in his home town, to prove that rock 'n' roll is not a threat to America's young. Singing at the concert (and in the film) are '50s greats like Bill Haley and the Comets, Little Richard, The Treniirs, Alan Freed, Dave Appjll and His Applejacks and Patricia Hardy. 4/4 Previews + Today PALPlus Films tomorrow
