Rock Around the Clock is the greatest rock and roll song of all time! Dick Clark used to refer to it as the "National Anthem of Rock and Roll." Bill Haley is the real king of rock and roll!
Many people wants to put as the first true rock 'n' roll, rhythm & blues songs. But, in true, the true first rock 'n' roll was "(We're gonna) Rock around the Clock", recorded in April 12, 1954, by Bill Haley & his Comets (1925 - 1981). It beeing also the first international hit by a rock 'n' roller.
I find the song ' Rock Around the Clock ' the most jump n' est song of the middle 50's and actually opened the way for more beautiful ballads and singles which led to the more famous "Doo Wop' hits which had words with meaning. Rock n' Roll and Doo Wop are all part of the best songs for having a good time. (of course some of the old Swing songs were also great)

There was actually an earlier version recorded in Philadelphia by Italians Sonny Dae and the Knights but its never as popular as the Bill Haley version
Very honestly, those fabulous black cats invented fantastic rock'nroll & jazz for us to enjoy 'em !! And white cats ( musicians) robbed 'em all off & made it look as if they belonged to 'em , instead !! I'd learnt of this truth in my history class at my jr.high in Tokyo , but I had totally forgotten about it for decades ! It's always so scary to realize how easily the society creates false truth & we buy it !! 💜🥁🐉🎤🎶🐈⬛🐾🎸🎷💕💞
I don't know what/why but I'm crying watching this video, *tears of joy- I'm just deeply touched.

BILL HALEY WILL ALWAYS BE THE ROCK GOD FATHER OF ROCK AND ROLL. THANKS BILL . AND KEEP ON ROCKING UP IN THE COMETS FOREVER !!.
❤THIS MUSIC BRINGS ME BACK IN MY YOUNGER DAYS!
Awesome that you were able to witness the creation of rock and roll and modern popular culture!
I was there as a teenager at the very beginning promoting Decca records & the film Black Board Jungle. Great times.
In my opinion, there are many elements which, combined, render this a classic. The back beat, the upright bass, great sax work, to name a few.
Legendary group👍👏👏🇱🇰☮️🕺💃🙏☮️👏

Before the Beatles, there was Elvis Presley. Before Elvis Presley, there was Bill Haley.
And before them there was Sister Rosetta Tharpe.
And before Sister Rosetta , there was Glenn Miller ( " In The Mood " , 3 chords , 12 bars ) !!!
I have no doubt, international anthem, great band
Great work. Thanks a lot.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Haley has been underrated by critics but No one of them could sing STAGGER LEE the way he did
