(305) SONG WRITERS HALL OF FAME ORG & BILL HALEY AND THE COMETS

Link here to the SONG WRITERS HALL OF FAME Museum ! Now the era that we're writing about is ROCK n ROLL, under the category 1955 to present which is a long, long time.

The beginning of this online article mentions Bill Haley and the Comets, who we haven't blogged about before... there is a wealth of information on this link, including dozens of profiles of inductees...

But Bill Haley and the Comet's song "Rock Around the Clock" was the first rock and roll song I ever heard! And yes, I think it was at one of those drive in diners!

This YouTuber presented a video of the group on the Ed Sullivan show. Would you believe we did not have a television set? We couldn't get reception in the Smokey Mountains ...
