Baltimore's The Buddy Deane Show - Rock and Roll of the 60s

Did anyone from Baltimore remember the Buddy Deane Show, which aired on WJZ-TV from 1957-1964? It was a popular teen dance show back in the day, which inspired the movie Hairspray by John Waters and featured many popular rock and roll artists like Buddy Holly. My granddaughter is doing a project about media during the Civil Rights Movement, specifically the Buddy Deane Show, and would like to know a little more about it from the actual people who were involved in it or watched it as a teen.

If anyone is willing to help with anything at all, whether about their personal experiences with the civil rights movement, media, and music in the 60s, or the Buddy Deane Show, feel free to comment!

Cheers x
