 "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.

 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.

 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.
