About this album

Biggest Hits distils Bill Haley and His Comets’ role as early rock and roll standard-bearers into a compact, high-impact compilation. By the time this 1970 LP appeared, Haley’s 1950s singles had already helped push the new sound into the mainstream, with Rock Around the Clock becoming one of the era’s most recognisable crossover records. The set brings together the sharp, danceable humour and backbeat drive that made the group famous, from Rock the Joint and Rock-A-Beatin’ Boogie to See You Later, Alligator and Shake, Rattle & Roll. It is a concise reminder of how Haley helped define rock’s first commercial breakthrough.
