December 1, 1956 –
The Frank Tashlin musical comedy film, The Girl Can’t Help It, starring Jayne Mansfield, Tom Ewell, Edmond O’Brien, Henry Jones, and Julie London, premiered in the US on this date.
In this film, Eddie Cochran performs Twenty Flight Rock. That song’s influence was so great across the Atlantic in Liverpool, England, that Paul McCartney’s ability to memorize the words and perform the song impressed John Lennon enough to ask him to join his group, then known as The Quarrymen, which later became The Beatles.
