ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK

Rock Around the Clock – Bill Haley and the Comets


I remember seeing the movie of the same name. Wild stuff in those days. This was around the same time as I was acquiring my first watch. I saw it up the street from the jewelry store at the El Portal theater.

Post war prosperity, at least for many Americans, was blooming. The baby boom must have resulted from a post-war mating boom. Things were looking good. There was an exuberance not seen for the previous thirty years.
