The NBC TV drama American Dreams, also set in the '60s, wove a greater range of period music through its characters' lives, as did American Graffiti and lots of other I-love-the-'60s jukebox movies...
...James Brown and others, began in 1928 as the brainchild of 12-year-old South Carolina choirboy James Davis. As the group's guiding force for nearly 80 years, Davis enforced a strict behavior code (he once fined himself $20 for playing a racy Muddy Waters tune on a jukebox instead of a religious song) and oversaw such musical innovations as the use of electric guitar.
