Pierre

He was on the sound track on one of the first movies that did rock and roll. It was called
black board jungle
jd’s

a old fifties movie about juvenile delinquents. That was a big fad in the fifties, what are we going to do about all these juvenile delinquents. Every body was so Freudian in the fifties, all searching for the holy grail of being “adjusted”





we all wanted to be juvenile delinquents so we could get the girls that would pet.

I saw him live in 1956, but I never noticed his hair cut before. That little curl hanging down kills me for some reason.

[edit] Music and teen culture
The film has also been credited with sparking the Rock and Roll revolution by featuring Bill Haley and the Comets's Rock Around the Clock, initially a B-side, over the film's opening credits, establishing that song as an instant classic. The music led to a huge teenage audience for the film: their exuberance sometimes overflowed into violence and vandalism at screenings.[1] In this sense, it has been seen as marking the start of a period of visible teenage rebellion in the late 20th century.
Blackboard Jungle
I felt so alive in 1956
I wish they all could be Baltimore girls.

Blackboard Jungle based on a novel by Evan Hunter. One of my favorite writers.

To make ends meet, Hunter taught English classes at inner city high schools, sold lobsters to restaurants and worked as an editor for the Scott Meredith Literary Agency, but he never stopped honing his writing skills. Under the names Curt Cannon, Hunt Collins and Richard Marsten, he wrote dozens of magazine stories. Once he had enough credits to his, well, many names, Hunter published his first novel, "The Blackboard Jungle." The harrowing tale of big city school violence became a 1955 film starring Glenn Ford and Sidney Poitier. Hunter later penned the second revision of the 1963 Alfred Hitchcock thriller, "The Birds."
