Bill Haley & His Comets-Rock Around The Clock LP, 1955 Decca MINT/NEAR MINT!


Rock Around the Clock is the third album of rock and roll music by Bill Haley and His Comets. Released by Decca Records in December 1955 it was, like the two albums that preceded it, a compilation album of previously issued singles. All of the album's contents had in fact been previously issued by Decca earlier in 1955 on the album Shake, Rattle and Roll. Unlike the previous release, which was in the 10-inch format, the new album was a full 12-inch release and included additional tracks from 1955. It was also the first Haley album to make the Billboardcharts, and was one of the first album releases of the rock and roll genre to do so.


The vinyl of this super classic, archetypal rock & roll album is in a very nice MINT condition.

The cardboard cover is in NEAR MINT (there is a tiny amount of wear on the pounts of the corners.)
