Rock And Roll Children

Rock And Roll Children Rock and Roll Children is the story of four metalheads in the 1980s. It is a hard hitting account of music and life from that decade.

It’s the 1980s and heavy metal music has exploded across America and Frankie, Bob, Rick and
Jeff are caught up in it. From Dio to Twisted Sister, these metal heads hit up every concert they
can. Attending college in different states, and even countries, heavy metal music is what brings
these four best friends back together summer after summer. But with the middle of the 1980s
begins the “intolerance” of heavy metal music. Girlfriends, yuppies and Jesus freaks want to put
an end to the heavy metal scene just as artists like Ozzy Osbourne and Aerosmith are playing
their greatest hits! Cracks begin emerging in their friendship while everyone is trying to make
their own way in the world, especially when Jeff’s travels lead him to England. Will heavy metal
all-stars like Ted Nugent, Anthrax and Judas Priest bring these four friends back together? Or are
their partying days long over?

Songs Over Ten Minutes: Emerson, Lake and Palmer- Fanfare for the Common Man

Emerson, Lake and Palmer Ten minute long instrumentals can go either two ways, they can become rather repetitive and therefore, boring or they can be really cool and uplifting. Fortunately, in the case of 1970s progressive rock icons, Emerson, Lake and Palmer on "Fanfare for the Common Man," it's the latter.
