Subject: If it's Tuesday it must be good!
Here's an opportunity to see the magnificently beautiful Tuesday Weld before she became Thalia Menninger on TV's Dobie Gillis. She's so sweet and adobable that you just might want to check your blood glucose level.

One thing about digital media is that one can quickly click forward through the less desirable scenes and music acts to the stars of the era, like Chuck Berry, the Moonglows, La Vern Baker, Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers.

Alan Freed helped Berry find his way to stardom with "Maybelline," so it's understandable that Freed would also want to introduce lesser-known (and sometimes not as talented) acts to give them a chance, too. All in all, a four star film.

Subject: Some good and some crap
Some great music and some crap music. Rock music was still young. Worth watching for the good music, of which their is plenty. BUT THAT BLACK KID IS CRAP!

Subject: Awesome Movie
I have this film on DVD and it's awesome. It may be a low-budget corny B-Movie, But just look at the STARS! Yep, The good and bad of early Rock'N'Roll, Featuring great footage of many talented (and untalented) acts. There is some great music here, and it deserves credit for featuring African Americans back during the mid-50s's. Don't watch it expecting great acting and a meaningful plot, Watch it for the STARS!
