VH-1 Behind the Music: The Bedrock Rollers

Pebbles and Bamm Bamm shined in the 1970's. They were huge rock stars. The Flintstone kids were on top of the world with their band: The Bedrock Rollers. However, the good times didn't last forever. By the late 1970's, they started to lose popularity as disco became the "in" thing. They were relegated to headlining for Steely Dan and the Steve Miller Band.

Then, tragedy struck in 1981 when a plane crash killed Bedrock Roller members Penny and Wiggy. The band was done. It got even worse when the National Enquirer broke a story a few years later about Bamm Bamm's love affair with Judy Jetson. A heartbroken Pebbles went back home with her parents Fred and Wilma. She suffered from alcoholism as a result of the breakup. Fred put her in Rock Detox Center in Bedrock. "She was very bad off for awhile. We both were there for her to make sure she made it through.", says Wilma.

Bamm Bamm went on to do a solo career. He had a falling out with Moonrock and they parted ways over a contract dispute. So, Bamm Bamm toured with Sting and the Police for awhile. He even hung out with Eric Clapton. However, his solo albums were not selling and he was doing heavy amounts of coke and meth. "Bamm Bamm was a mess. He partied all the time. Judy and Bamm Bamm brought out the worst in each other. A 1991 arrest for domestic violence was the last straw for Judy Jetson. Bamm Bamm was alone again. He went into rehab and came out alright.

Sadly, Pebbles found out that year that her dad Fred had terminal lung cancer. Fred passed away in February of 1993. "I miss him so much!", Pebbles cried. Barney died of a heart attack in 1999. Things couldn't get any worse for Bamm Bamm and Pebbles.

Out of all the negative, some positives emerged. Bamm Bamm has become a large contributor to the D.A.R.E. program to keep kids off drugs. "I don't want to see kids suffer like I did.", says Bamm Bamm. Pebbles recently released her biography, "A Rocky Road". It became a best seller. "I'm so glad that our fans are still out there after all these years.", says Pebbles. Bamm Bamm finally reached out and patched things up with Moonrock. "We don't have time for animosity anymore. It's time to let bygones be bygones.", says Bamm Bamm.

Even with all the tragedy, Pebbles and Bamm Bamm will live on as pop culture icons forever.
