In the late '60s, Flash Cadillac & the Continental Kids hit the club scene and shook up the psychedelic status quo with a dose of old-style rock & roll. Clad in black leather jackets with their hair greased back in ducktails, they performed punchy '50s rock classics at a time when ten-minute guitar solos were de rigueur. Flash Cadillac (which dropped the "Continental Kids" addendum in 1980) was formed at the University of Colorado at Boulder in 1968. After honing their chops on the fraternity party circuit, the group left Boulder and relocated to Los Angeles in 1971. Two years later, they got their big break when they were cast as the prom band in American Graffiti, a gig that also entailed their inclusion in the movie's hit soundtrack. A major-label record contract followed, and the band issued a series of pleasant '50s and '60s revival music albums that encompassed both cover versions and original compositions. The best of these is the surf-themed Sons of the Beach, issued in 1976. The band toured extensively as an opening act for many of the top bands of the '70s, including Alice Cooper and Black Sabbath. They also appeared on the TV show Happy Days (in an episode written especially for them, no less) and were featured in the film Apocalypse Now. After their career cooled, Flash Cadillac continued to appear on the summer fair circuit and managed to secure gigs doing classic rock songs with symphony pops orchestras. The band also maintained the ongoing job of producing .... + Informações

From their excellent 1972 album, here's the studio version of the (IMO) highlight of "American Graffiti"...I prefer the movie rendition, but this stands tall on its own merit. + Informações

"Did You Boogie ( With Your Baby) was the only top 40 single for Flash Cadillac & The Continental Kids in 1976 & is from their album, "Sons of The Beaches " on Private Stock Records & features "Wolfman Jack". There's also a rare version of..."Did You Boogie" without Wolfman Jack but lacks the punch that Wolfman Jack brings to the song.... The "Sons of The Beaches" album holds up real well on its own & could give Brian Wilson or any Beach Boys album a run for its money...... + Informações

American Graffiti is a 1973 coming of age film co-written/directed by George Lucas starring Richard Dreyfuss, Ron Howard, Paul Le Mat, Charles Martin Smith, Cindy Williams, Candy Clark, Mackenzie Phillips and Harrison Ford. Set in 1962 Modesto, California, American Graffiti is a study of the cruising and rock and roll cultures popular among the post--World War II baby boom generation. The film is a nostalgic portrait of teenage life in the early 1960s told in a series of vignettes, featuring the story of a group of teenagers and their adventures within one night. The genesis of American Graffiti was in Lucas's own teenage years in early 1960s Modesto. He was unsuccessful in pitching the concept to financiers and distributors but finally found favor at Universal Pictures after United Artists, 20th Century Fox, Columbia Pictures, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and Paramount Pictures turned him down. Filming was initially set to take place in San Rafael, California, but the production crew was denied permission to shoot beyond a second day. As a result, most filming for American Graffiti was done in Petaluma. American Graffiti was released to universal critical acclaim and financial success, and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture. Produced on a $775000 budget, the film has turned out to be one of the most profitable movies of all time. Since its initial release, American Graffiti has garnered an estimated return of well over $200 million in box office gross and home .... + Informações

A one hit wonder of the most glorious kind! Another 70's trip down 50's nostalgia lane, thanks to American Graffiti(from where Flash Cadillac and the band were sourced) and Happy Days. I have fond memories of this song blasting out of radios in 1976, and although i had no appreciation of the era that this song and band were evoking, "Did you Boogie" was catchy, fun and had great harmonies. Although formed years before, and releasing earlier singles, it was "Did you Boogie" which provided them with their only chart success in America, and the song climbed even higher in Australia, and spent several months ambling around the Top 40. Britain had Showaddywaddy, we had Silver Studs and OL'55, and America had Sha Na Na and Flash Cadillac who dropped the Continental Kids from their name, once they reached their 30's - considering themselves too old to be 'kids'. I hope this brings back good memories for all who see it. Enjoy!. + Informações

For two summers of my teen-aged life, this band was my collective first love. With three of the original members gone now (including my main man, Flash), I wanted to make this tribute to sweet memories and nice young men. Song is "Did You Boogie with your Baby" by Flash Cadillac. To see more from the new version of FC, check out flashcadillac.com. + Informações
