Never Too Young To Rock is a 1975 British musical comedy film directed by Dennis Abey and starring Peter Denyer and Freddie Jones. It features musical artists popular at the time of release including The Glitter Band, The Rubettes, Mud, Scott Fitzgerald, Slik and Bob Kerr's Whoopee Band.[1]
Rock music has been banned from television and our two heroes scour the country in their detector van for bands to perform at a concert, aided and hindered by a likely assortment of people.
