Did You Know?

That fall, a TV special marking the 30th anniversary of American Bandstand saw an all-star "supergroup" perform the song (accompanied by 1950s-era footage of Haley and the Comets).

E1. Rock Is Fifty also hosted additional celebrations in Los Angeles in July, 2005, as part of a "Rock Around the Clock-a-Thon" to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the date the song reached the No.

The best-known and most successful rendition was recorded by Bill Haley and His Comets in 1954.Although it was not the first rock and roll record, nor was it the first successful record of the genre (Bill Haley had American chart success with "Crazy Man, Crazy" in 1953, and in 1954, "Shake, Rattle and Roll" reached #1 on the Billboard R&B chart), Haley's recording became an anthem for rebellious Fifties youth Rock and Roll Hall of Fame citation and is widely considered to be the song that, more than any other, brought rock and roll into mainstream culture in the United States and around the world.

An excerpt from the recording was included in "Haley's Golden Medley", a hastily-compiled single in the "Stars on 45" mould which made the UK record charts in 1982, reaching number 50.

The original version was also featured in the 1978 film Superman ; it is heard playing on a car radio just prior to Glenn Ford's final scene in the film ; Ford, as noted earlier, had starred in Blackboard Jungle.(However, when ABC broadcast the film on TV for the first time, they were unable to obtain the rights to "Rock Around the Clock" and it was replaced by another piece of music; the song remains in all subsequent VHS, DVD and television versions of the film.)During the 1970s Haley shortened his performances of "Rock Around the Clock", dropping one verse and the second instrumental break from most performances.

Sales figures as high as 35 to 40 million have been cited in various reference books and by media, as have lower numbers in the 15-22 million range, whilst a "more than 30 million copies" figure was quoted by Star, as early as 1983, on back cover page of Swenson's book.
