The birth of Rock and Roll featuring Bill Haley and The Saddlemen and their transformation into Bill Haley and His Comets as Rhythm and Blues (also known at the time as "Race music") merged with Country and Western, and even Swing music. Bill Haley and His Comets successes accumulated, and led to the amazing breakthrough "Rock Around The Clock", causing an international sensation after it was released in MGM's movie "Blackboard Jungle" starring Glenn Ford, Sydney Poitier and Ann Francis. The group's subsequent international touring power and influence is also revisited.
