RecordDragon 7th Oct 2022		B-side play. Image 426876



xiphophilos 27th Feb 2017		"Rock Around The Clock", as the quatrefoil ✤ (= Gloverville, NY pressing) or diamond ◈ (= Richmond, IN pressing) after the matrix number shows, was intended as the B side. I've switched the track order accordingly.



Tailspin 1st Jun 2015		Thirteen Women (And Only One Man In Town) “Dreamed of the H-Bomb”



fixbutte 14th Mar 2014		Though "Rock Around The Clock" did not make the National US charts before May 1955, it was a regional (Northern) hit immediately in May 1954, see the uploaded clip of Billboard. So it was not all because of Blackboard Jungle.



lorangrecords 3rd Aug 2013		If the Book of Billboard Top 40 is correct, it took exactly one year from rel. to the entry on that chart. Remarkable I must say. It’s all about the film I think.
