Bill Haley's Comets - BiographySince the death of Bill Haley in 1981, a number of groups have continued to perform and record under the name Bill Haley's Comets, with varying degrees of authorization. This includes (but is not limited to): a contingent active from 1981-83 led by Joey Welz; a contingent from 1983-early 1990s run by Al Rappa and John Lane; in the early 1990s Rappa and Lane split up and formed their own versions of the Comets (since Lane's death in the mid-2000s his group has been led by Lenny Longo); and the original 1954-1955 members of the Comets who began performing and recording in the late 1980s and technically continue as of 2021, though with only one original member (Joey Ambrose) surviving. Recordings listed on the Hydra, Rollin Rock and Rockstar labels are the 1954-55 Comets (often credited as the Original Comets or simply The Comets, or The Original Band). Recordings by the Welz, Rappa and Lane contingents have tended to be released independently. « Back to Discography Edit This Biography : Biography Credits
