Bill Haley - Early Years 1947-1951 (CD)

The earliest stuff by one of the earliest stars of rock 'n' roll! Here's the music Haley made before he made history; you can hear him transform from cowboy-song singer to rocker as you hear Candy Kisses; Tennessee Border; I'm Not to Blame; Deal Me a Hand; Behind the Eight Ball; Rocket 88; Green Tree Boogie; Pretty Baby; Rock the Joint; Icy Heart; Live It Up, and more. As a bonus, you'll hear the Ray Whitley songs Bill sang plus the cowboy crooner's original versions. 53 tracks!
