The Comets didn't have a full-time lead guitar player at this time, so made do without. 'Danny Cedrone', who had played the famous guitar solo on "Rock Around the Clock," died only weeks before this was shot.
Pre-dating Blackboard Jungle (1955) by a year, and Rock Around the Clock (1956) by two years, this short film is considered to be the very first true rock 'n' roll movie.
