Despite starring famous actors and comedians, the film was both a critical and financial failure, grossing $18 million. Judas Priest, Saga and Ted Nugent, among others, contributed to the soundtrack. The title track, "Johnny B. Goode", originally recorded by Chuck Berry, was re-recorded by Judas Priest for their album, Ram It Down. ()
