The Fastest Guitar Alive…
Roy Orbison’s 1967 film saw him star as Johnny Banner, a Southern spy, with a bullet-shooting guitar, who has a plan to rob gold bullion from the US Mint, in San Francisco, with the aid of the Confederate army. This was low budget fodder, scripted by Robert E. Kent (best known for Diary of a Madman and Rock Around the Clock) and directed by Michael D. Moore (who later worked as Second Unit Director with Steven Spielberg on Indiana Jones), and is now best known for its 7 songs performed by the the Big “O”.
The Apocalypse Force Awakens Now
Movie makers are very sneaky. They will insert all kinds of subliminal images and messages in their movies. Watching Star Wars: The Force Awakens I noticed a take in the movie on Apocalypse Now, the classic Vietnam film directed by Francis Ford Coppola.
In Apocalypse Now there is a famous scene where American helicopters on an attack mission are backdropped by the rising sun. The director of The Force Awakens uses the same concept when the bad guys in their TIE fighters are on the attack. Quite cool actually.
The Force Awakens
Rock N’ Roll Forever By Danny & the Juniors
Danny & the Juniors are a doo-wop quartet from Philadelphia comprising Danny Rapp, Dave White, Frank Maffei and Joe Terranova. Formed in 1955, they are most widely recognized for their hit single “At the Hop”, which was released in 1957. They are sometimes erroneously stated as being an Italian-American band (lead singer Danny Rapp was actually of Irish extraction).
