Much like our friends George Lucas, Wolfman Jack, Flash Cadillac & The Continental Kids, and even Sha Na Na, we have no problem with nostalgia over here at ATTT HQ. We tread heavily in the music and feelings of the past. How could you not, considering the present and the future? "Where were you in '62?" is the mantra of the film and soundtrack to the film we're reveling in this week. American Graffiti went from a small time labor of love for George Lucas to a worldwide phenomena, helping to propel an obsession with 50's and early 60's culture throughout the 1970s. They weren't all Happy Days, but this music is timeless. Paul & Elizabeth Eisen, aka my beloved parents, are back to help us finish up our countdown of the best songs from the American Graffiti Soundtrack aka the best rock n roll, doo wop and pop music from 1957-1962. Picks 5-1 are featured here in part 2.
