Second only to Rock Around the Clock as the movie that introduced rock 'n' roll to an unsuspecting public, Rock, Rock, Rock.' stars Tuesday Weld whose singing voice is provided by Connie Francis. Alan Freed introduces a host of artists including 13-year-old Frankie Lymon (' I'm not a juvenile delinquent'), the Johnny Burnette Trio (in a unique film appearance) and the incomparable Chuck Berry.
The plot of the film is beside the point - it's the authentic rock 'n' roll sound of the 50s that makes this oldie a goldie.
