Does anyone know of any "rock operas" or rock movies, besides the following, of the sort ostensibly set in the late 50s or early 60s?

Eddie & the Cruisers (Eddie & the Cruisers II would be desirable, but is apparently not available on DVD)
Streets of Fire
Grease

Hm, interesting. I think he already has it on DVD, though.

FWIW, I have never sat and watched the movie myself, although I used to (ca. 6-8 years ago) listen to a tape of a couple of songs over and over again (made directly from the movie by recording through the stereo system, rather than off a soundtrack release).

You got so many dreams that you don't know where to put 'em
So you better turn a few of 'em loose
Your body's got the feeling that it's starting to rust
You better rev it up and put it to use

I would definately recommend you watching it. The dialogue could be a little silly in places but it's an all around good action film.
