    Dick Clark surveys the golden-oldies craze of the 1950's and 1960's with many film clips and live performers singing their hits and reminiscing about the dawn of Rock 'N' Roll. 

NOTE: The audio of this historic air check is most enjoyable to listen and very discernable but was recorded not with the best sound equipment, creating less than pristine audio. Interestingly the commercials sound better than the broadcast indicating possibly that transmission of the show was off as well. It is included because of its content. Still, the audio is quite pleasant and enjoyable and contains many iconic stars and anecdotes reflected by them.
