I know most of the tunes in Rockers but not all of them or all song information. It would be very interesting to see a list of every song played in the movie. It would be cool to see a detailed list of all song information/versions....


Maybe we can put one together :)

milesganna, the tune in the record shop is Cool Operator by Dillinger. in fact the man in the yellow suit dancing in the shop is Dillinger.
