Your Stories: ‘I Found Australia’s Lost Rock ’n’ Roll Concert Film’

In 1959, entrepreneur Lee Gordon staged an all-star rock ’n’ roll show at the Sydney Stadium and filmed it for cinematic release. But this pioneering movie – the only one of its kind – was soon lost. More than half a century later, Melbourne man Mark Iaria found the film. He talks about his remarkable discovery and his efforts to digitise, restore and share the “Lee Gordon 1959 Rock ’N’ Roll Spectacular” with modern cinema audiences.Check out the film’s webpage for screenings near you: https://rocknroll1959.com/Read a sample chapter from my new book The Murder Squad: https://affirmpress.com.au/publishing/the-murder-squadSupport Forgotten Australia:Apple - http://apple.co/forgottenaustraliaPatreon - https://www.patreon.com/ForgottenAustralia Hosted on Acast.
