ROCK & ROLL IN KENNEDY’S AMERICA reclaims the lost music history of the early 60's. The dramatic tale stars talented country rockers like Elvis Presley, Brenda Lee, and Roy Orbison; innovative R&B rock artists such as Ray Charles, Smokey Robinson, Mary Wells, Sam Cooke, and the Shirelles; outstanding pop rockers like Dion, Connie Francis, the Beach Boys, Lesley Gore, Del Shannon, and the 4 Seasons; and hundreds of other singers and musicians, including pop artists and folk singers who earned hit records with songs aimed at young audiences.

The soundtrack features many of rock & roll’s greatest hits, including the Shirelles’ “Will You Love Me Tomorrow,” Dion’s “Runaround Sue,” U.S. Bonds’ “Quarter to Three,” and the Kingsmen’s “Louie Louie,” as well as more obscure rock gems like Wanda Jackson’s “Let’s Have a Party” and the Lafayettes’ “Life’s Too Short.”
