Rod Lauren owns a co-op coffeeshop/jazz club for the kids in LA. They are hassled by an uppity landlord, whose lawyer is constantly trying to shut them down. The landlord's daughter starts dating Rod, giving him the edge he needs to keep the club. The drama is strictly juvenile, but the music is nothing short of a time capsule to pre-Beatles America. There is cool jazz that the kids twist to maniacally, innocent folk that the clap along to enthusiastically and crooning by Gene McDaniels. WOW.
