Price $19.99) :: The career of the British Invasion pop group Hermanâs Hermits was in full, fan-shrieking, disc-selling orbit when their first top-billed movie came to theaters, so maybe itâs only natural to think NASA would want to name a rocket after them. Well, at least thatâs whatâs at stake in this 1966 romp that has the five lads on a U.S. tour, where theyâre mobbed by various birds â and secretly monitored by a nerdy scientist to determine if they are rocket worthy. Yes, Hold On! is not so much about making sense as it is about having fun. A double fistful of Hermits’ songs (including the Top-10 hits A Must to Avoid and Leaning on the Lamp Post) adds to the good times. Shelley Fabares, no stranger to the charts with 1962âs Johnny Angel, costars.
