An original British Quad poster for the 1973 rockumentary “Let the Good Times Roll”

An American rockumentary/concert film directed by Robert Abel and Sidney Levin. It features numerous stars from the American pop and rock music scene of the 1950s. Including - Chuck Berry Chubby Checker The Coasters Bo Diddley Fats Domino The Five Satins Bill Haley and the Comets Little Richard. 

The film edits together footage of two concerts from 1973, one at Nassau Coliseum on Long Island, and a second at Cobo Hall in Detroit, Michigan, during the height of a series of multi-artist tours known as the "Rock and Roll Revival," interspersed with footage of the singers from the 1950s and 60s. It also includes interviews with the singers.

The film ends with a rare, and apparently impromptu, duet between Berry and Diddley, who had recorded together before, but were not often filmed on stage together.

“Does everybody feel alright? Everybody feel alright? Come on, everybody, clap your hands! Come on! Come on. Ah, come on!”
