Were they ‘the years of confusion and doubt’ as Pat Boone sings in ‘Twixt Twelve And Twenty’ or do most of us sail through them relatively unscathed? Certainly the phenomenon of ‘teenagers’ reached a climax in the 50s and 60s. Singers and songwriters were quick to cash in on this new market. All songs in the program are evidence of this focus on teenage romance (A Teenager In Love), teenage worries and angst (Summerime Blues) (At Seventeen) and adults reaction to teenage behaviour (Kids). The Aussie highlight is a great song about a teenage boy losing his virginity – Mondo Rock‘s big hit ‘Come Said The Boy’.
