Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
In this musical drama, a popular rock star leads a successful and happy life while his grandfather, a stern, traditional preacherman admonishes the lad for his sinful existence. The young man is filled with guilt and after the old reverend dies, becomes a preacher himself. But try as he might, he simply cannot bring his heart into his words. A wise aunt counsels him and tells him that his talent came from God and that he should use it. Songs include: "Rock of Ages," "Sing, Boy, Sing," "Gonna Talk with My Lord," "Who Baby?" "Crazy 'Cause I Love You," "Bundle of Dreams," "Your Daddy Wants to Do Right," "Just a Little Bit More," "That's All I Want from You," "People in Love," "Soda-Pop Song," "Would I Love You."
