Made a cat out of this square

Entertaining, albeit completely fictional, story about the early days of 'rock'n'roll'. The diaphanous plot finds band manager Steve Hollis (Johnny Johnston) having an musical epiphany while attending a small town dance in 'Strawberry Springs', where the kids are rocking and rolling to local band 'Bill Haley and His Comets'. Recognising the potential of the new sound, Steve plans to take the band to the top but has to contend with conniving agent Corinne Talbot (Alix Talton), who is carrying a torch for him and doesn't want him fraternising with "Young. Fresh." dancer Lisa (Lisa Gaye ). Haley and crew lip-sync a few good tunes including the titular classic, as do the Platters (including the standard "The Great Pretender") and the Bellboys (a somewhat less remembered act). There is lots of hip slang, keen music, a bit of S.E.X., and some crazy dancing (especially by Lisa Gaye and Earl Barton). Good, light-weight fun daddy-o!
