In the 1950s and ’60s, rock ’n’ roll swept across America, driven by the power of radio. But it was the disc jockeys who held the real sway: deciding what records to spin and, in doing so, shaping the soundtrack of a generation. With bands vying for airplay and DJs battling to be number one, an original and irreverent voice cut through the noise: the Wild I-Tralian, Dick Biondi.

Filmmaker Pamela Enzweiler-Pulice will be onstage at the end of the film for a Q&A.

Organist David Rhodes and the Mighty Wurlitzer preshow concerts welcome attendees as they arrive. The organ lights up 30 minutes before the screening, so come early and enjoy the music!

A discussion will follow the film.
