He was with Holiday and Cowboy before that. Did the first cover of "Rocket 88" which is terrific.

>> I just ran across a curious item; I've never seen Bill Haley on any label 78 except Decca, but the record I just found is on Quality. It doesn't list the artist as "Bill Haley and the Comets"; it says, "Bill Haley sings 'Crazy Man, Crazy', written by Haley and accompanied by Haley's Comets". The other side is "Watcha Gonna do", also by Haley. Because of the wording on the label, I would assume this predates "Rock Around the Clock".
