Bill Haley His Comets was an American rock and roll band that was founded in 1952 and continued until Haley's death in 1981. The band, also known by the names Bill Haley and the Comets and Bill Haley's Comets (and variations thereof), was the earliest group of white musicians to bring rock and roll to the attention of white America and the rest of the world. From late 1954 to late 1956, the group placed nine singles in the Top 20, one of those a number one and three more in the Top Ten.[1] • Bandleader Bill Haley had previously been a country music performer; after recording a country and western-styled version of Rocket 88 , a rhythm and blues song, he changed musical direction to a new sound which came to be called rock and roll. • Although several members of the Comets became famous, Bill Haley remained the star. With his spit curl and the band's matching plaid dinner jackets and energetic stage behavior, many fans consider them to be as revolutionary in their time as the Beatles or the Rolling Stones were a decade later. • Following Haley's death, no fewer than six different groups have existed under the Comets name, all claiming (with varying degrees of authority) to be the official continuation of Haley's group. As of early 2008, three such groups were still performing in the United States and internationally. • In 1953 Haley scored his first national success with an original song called Crazy Man, Crazy , a phrase Haley said he heard from his teenage audience. Haley later claimed the recording sold a million copies, but this is considered an exaggeration. Crazy Man, Crazy was the first rock and roll song to be televised nationally when it was used on the soundtrack for a 1953 television play starring James Dean. • Haley and His Comets then recorded Rock Around the Clock , Haley's biggest hit, and one of the most important records in rock and roll history. Sales of Rock Around the Clock started slowly but eventually sold an estimated 25 million copies (per the Guinness Book of World Records) and marked the arrival of a cultural shift. • Shake, Rattle and Roll followed, a somewhat bowdlerized cover version of the Big Joe Turner recording[4] of earlier in 1954. The record was one of Decca's best-selling records that year[5] and the seventh best selling record in November 1954.[6] • In March 1955, the group had four songs in Cash Box magazines top 50 songs: Dim, Dim the Lights, (I Want Some Atmosphere) , Birth of the Boogie , Mambo Rock , and Shake, Rattle and Roll . • PLEASE NOTE: I divided my uploads among multiple channels, Bookmark this link in your browser for instant access to an index with links to all of John1948's oldies classics.
