“Shake, Rattle and Roll” by Bill Haley and His Comets is one of most iconic songs of the early rock and roll era. Released in 1954 by Decca Records, the hit spent 27 weeks in the Top-40 on the Billboard charts. The 45 is now worth up to $75.00. The EP up to $400.00 and the LP up to $800.00. The covers look similar but the EP has 4 songs while the LP has 8. (All versions of all records are described in detail in Mighty John’s “Record Appraisal Guide,” available in the left hand column.)
