THIS ALBUM, WHICH WAS ISSUED IN A 10-INCH FORMAT, CONSISTED OF RECORDINGS
PREVIOUSLY ISSUED ON SINGLES IN 1954 AND 1955, INCLUDING THE TITLE TRACK, AND
“ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK”, ALTHOUGH AT THE TIME OF THIS ALBUM’S RELEASE IN
EARLY 1955, “ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK” HAD NOT YET BECOME A MAJOR HIT. THIS
WAS HALEY’S SECOND ALBUM, AND WAS ONE OF THE FIRST ALBUM-LENGTH RELEASES
OF THE ROCK AND ROLL ERA, PREDATING THE RELEASE OF ELVIS PRESLEY’S FIRST ALBUM
BY A YEAR. THIS ORIGINAL DEEP GROOVE PRESSING IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION, DISC
PLAYS FINE WITH MODERATE AMOUNT OF BACKGROUND NOISE, THE COVER HAS SLIGHT
SIGNS OF USE AND NO WRITING...HARD TO FIND IN DECENT CONDITION.
