USED VINYL RECORD. PART OF A COLLECTION NOW UP FOR SALE.

I IMAGINE THAT THERE WOULD NOT BE ANYONE IN THE WESTERN WORLD WHO IS NOT FAMILIAR WITH BILL HALEY AND HIS COMETS. BILL AND THE COMETS ARE CREDITED WITH THE PHENOMENON THAT SWEPT THE WORLD IN 1954 CALLED ROCK'N'ROLL AFTER THEIR VERSION OF "ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK" (A SONG THAT HAD BEEN RECORDED BY A R&B GROUP CALLED SONNY DAE & THE KNIGHTS ABOUT A YEAR OR SO EARLIER WITH VERY LITTLE SUCCESS) WAS FEATURED OVER THE OPENING CREDITS OF THE MOVIE "BLACKBOARD JUNGLE". ALTHOUGH THE GROUP HAD BEEN AROUND FOR SEVERAL YEARS PRIOR TO THIS WITH ONLY MINOR SUCCESS SUDDENLY THE WORLD WAS SET ON FIRE. THIS ALBUM IS A REISSUE OF THE ORIGINAL ALBUM RELEASED BY DECCA RECORDS IN 1955. IN AUSTRALIA IT WAS ORIGINALLY RELEASED BY FESTIVAL RECORDS WITH THE CATALOGUE NUMBER FR12-1102. THE ARTWORK AND THE TRACK LISTING IS THE SAME AS THE ORIGINAL RELEASE.

THIS VERSION WAS RELEASED BY MCA RECORDS DURING THE 1970s. THE SLEEVE IS GRADED EXCELLENT WITH THE ONLY VISIBLE SIGNS OF WEAR BEING A SMALL CREASE IN THE TOP RIGHT HAND CORNER VISIBLE IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY AT THE SCAN. THE RECORD IS GRADED AS NEAR MINT.

TRACK LISTING: Side 1: (We're Gonna) Rock Around The Clock / Shake, Rattle And Roll / A.B.C. Boogie / Thirteen Women (And Only One Man In Town) / Razzle-Dazzle / Two Hound Dogs. Side 2: Dim, Dim The Lights (I Want Some Atmosphere) / Happy Baby / Birth Of The Boogie / Mambo Rock / Burn That Candle / Rock-A-Beatin' Boogie.
