Girl Happy Reviews

Presley, leader of a four-piece rock 'n' roll group, lands a job in a Fort Lauderdale nightclub during Easter week, when vacationing collegians take over the town. Sent there by the club's owner, Chicago mobster Stone, Presley is commissioned to keep an eye on Stone's errant daughter Fabares--who is mad about him--during his spare time. Lothario Mioni's attempts to romance the wild wanton involve all in numerous scrapes, which kindly cop, Coogan, attempts to ameliorate. Songs include "Girl Happy" (Doc Pomus, Norman Mead); "Cross My Heart and Hope to Die" (Ben Weisman, Sid Wayne);"Do Not Disturb," "Spring Fever," "Wolf Call" (Bill Giant, Bernie Baum, Florence Kaye); "Do the Clam" (Weisman, Wayne, Dolores Fuller); "Fort Lauderdale Chamber of Commerce," "Puppet On a String" (Sid Tepper, Roy C. Bennett); "I've Got to Find My Baby," "The Meanest Girl in Town" (Joy Byers); "Startin' Tonight" (Lenore Rosenblatt, Victor Millrose).
