Trevor:

Be sure to look at his feedback. 6 Negatives in the last month.
All for basically (?) the same reason. Cheap, bad copies. One or even two, but 6 in 30 days?? All of them were of rock n roll
subjects.

Too bad, I wish someone would come out with the old Rock n Roll movies good condition. I wish I would have kept the 35mm print of Rock, Rock, Rock with Tuesday Weld.

Does anyone know if there have been any of these shows put on Super 8?

Have a good day. Dick

I agree it is a bit of a gamble.The film wasn't to flash brand new on the screen.I've seen bits of it on tv and they are reminiscent of those terrible Elvis cuts from the Ed Sullivan show.Guess I'll see! Trev

Got my RatC dvd from seastone records.It is a good quality one.When I first saw this film it was in an "all male" segregated theatre with the house lights on! such was the fear RR would inflame basic desires in young men.Watching it,I can't help but think,"how tame and how SLOW!"Trev
