B&W videotape of 1964 live concert in Santa Monica, California. Caught live on stage were the biggest selling acts of the day such as the Beach Boys, Jan & Dean, James Brown, Chuck Berry, The Rolling Stones, and seven more.
The show ran as a movie in theatres across the US, and in the U.K., retitled "Teenage Command Performance". Then it surfaced in poorly-edited form on bootleg videotapes. It was fully restored and re-mastered for this DVD.
