Description
Bill Haley and The Comets were responsible for the breakthrough that transformed rock 'n' roll from a teen fad with a cult following into a global phenomenon in 1955 when their single Rock Around The Clock became the first rock 'n' roll record to reach the #1 position in the U.S. charts. This highest selling vinyl single of all time paved the way for the tidal wave of rock 'n' roll artists that followed. Join three of the original members of the band in this rockin' production of their all time hits sprinkled with their recent rockabilly releases, in an evening sure to rock the joint. See ya later alligator!
