very annoying

It's a shame because this movie could have been a contender with a little more care and respect for the intelligence of the audience. One thing a producer can always control is what music he uses in his movie. To see it done right check out any film directed by Martin Scorsese or Spike Lee. When a movie tells me it's the summer of 1965 and the soundtrack plays "California Dreaming" - released in February of 1966 - it tells me the filmakers just don't care, so why should I? My wife said it should have been called "Before They Were Stars" as it features early appearances by many actors who have gone on to bigger and better things - Noah Wylie, Rick Schroder, Kelli Williams, etc.
