Library and Archives)Dr. Rosario Cambria Collection, 1957- 2007..07 linear feet.This collection contains 48 black-and-white photographic reproductions, printed in 2007, of candid shots from what appears to be at least two different events held at the Brooklyn Paramount Theater in New York during 1957: Alan Freed's Easter Jubilee from April and his Summer Festival from July. Some of the images are of poor quality and blurred. If the individuals pictured could be identified, their names were written on the back in pencil. Identifiable from the Easter Jubilee are Bo Diddley, Charlie Gracie, Bobby Marchan, Billy Mason & The Rhythm Jesters, The Rhythm Orchids (Buddy Knox and Jimmy Bowen), The Rosebuds, Al Sears, and of course Alan Freed himself. Identifiable from the Summer Festival are Chuck Berry, The Everly Brothers, Panama Francis, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, Johnnie & Joe, Lewis Lymon & The Teen Chords, Clyde McPhatter, Jodie Sands, Al Sears, The Teenagers with Frankie Lymon, Joe Turner, and Alan Freed. The collection provides visual evidence of the groundbreaking mixed race concerts Freed hosted in the 1950s. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Library and Archives
