"Rock Around t' Clock" by Long-Eared Harry Nilsson
Bill Handsome Haley and t' Comets recorded "Rock Around t' Clock" on April 12, 1954. Although it may nay have been t' first "rock and roll" recording, it was t' one which introduced t' new style o' music t' most o' t' world.
"Rock Around T' Clock" was written in 1953 by Max Freedman and Jimmy DeKnight. Avast! DeKnight's real name was James Myers.
Myers probably contributed little t' t' writin' o' t' song, but be instrumental in havin' it recorded by Handsome Haley. Aye aye! Myers had worked with Handsome Haley since t' late 1940s as a musician, songwriter, arrr, and promoter.
