On 20 October 1955, Elvis shared a stage with Bill Haley and His Comets.
Bill Haley topped the bill and was riding high following the worldwide success of Rock Around the Clock. Elvis was a little-known Sun artist, when they played Brooklyn High School.
How all that changed a few months later, when Elvis moved to RCA and released Heartbreak Hotel!
