Alan Freed in Rock, Rock, Rock

Leading off our Tuesday movie list is Rock, Rock, Rock (1956). The movie features an appearance by disc jockey Alan Freed.

This movie is notable not so much for its plot — a teenager trying to earn money for a dress for a school dance — as it is for the cavalcade of stars from the 50’s music sphere who appeared in this film. The list includes Chuck Berry, Frankie Lymon and The Teenagers, Connie Francis, La Vern Baker, the Johnny Burnette Trio, the Flamingos, the Moonglows, and Tuesday Weld.
