41 Original Hits From the Sound Track of American Graffiti is the classic soundtrack album to the 1973 coming-of-age film directed by George Lucas. The double album compiles 41 rock ’n’ roll, doo-wop, and R&B hits that define the atmosphere of early-1960s American youth culture and cruising-car radio nights.
