Teen-Age Cruisers II: Zoom's rejoinder

Not long ago, I reviewed the Teen-Age Cruisers soundtrack as a "Back In the Day" entry. My atention to that disc drew a response from X's Billy Zoom. He appeared on it. In the interest of historical accuracy (and with Billy's permission), I now present his rejoinder in its entirety:




"Actually, though...none of those songs are from the movie. That was just Ronny Weiser's way of cashing in on the 80's rockabilly revival. The earlier 1975 version of Bad Boy was in the movie, but the Blasters didn't even exist yet when that movie was made, and I didn't record those songs for Rollin' Rock Records until 1976, after the movie was made."

Let the record reflect that.
