Sweet Beat 1958

Ten minutes of glory from a stinker of a film. This judicious pruning brings forth the following gems...
Keith Fordyce (radio Luxembourg Disc Jockey) interviewing Julia Amber...
Billy Myles performing his classic doo wopper,the Joker.
Julia Amber,How do you mend a broken heart.
Lee Allen,Boppin' at the hop (excerpt)
The Mellokings,Tonite,Tonite.
Fred Parris & the five Satins,In the still of the night.
The film was released in 1958 & marks the first earnest attempt to make a British Rock 'n' roll film.
Interestingly the only person here able to sustain a career in the limelight is Keith Fordyce,who went on to compere Ready steady go in the Sixties,even back in 1958 he looks like somebodys uncle,also watch out for Reel to reel porn & earnest men in white coats twiddling knobs,enjoy !
