Rock Around The Clock was not written by Bill Haley but by Max Freedman and James Myers in 1952.  Bill Haley recorded the song in 1954 and it took only two takes combined to make the final version.

And because of a delay arriving at the studio to record the song, Sammy Davis Jr's studio time was delayed while he waited in the hallway as Bill Haley recorded this song. Bill Haley had a #1 with this song and can be found on his album of the same name.

Garden Party was written by Ricky Nelson about a concert he was boo-ed at at MSG in NYC. It's believed the boo-ing was due to police action in the crowd, but Nelson thought it was directed at him, so he played one more song and left the building.
