Bill Haley and His Comets are considered just as revolutionary to rock 'n' roll as the Beatles or Stones.

Haley died in 1981 but a former collaborator of his is keeping the music alive.

Al Rappa is the leader of Bill Haley's Comets, a name he has fought to keep.

He talks to Growing Bolder about all the musicians vying for the name and who he thinks Haley would be playing with today if he were still alive.

    I have seen Mr Rappa perform and there is not a greater entertainer anywhere in this world. He moves with the grace of a dancer and the spirit of a true rock and roll legend. Long live rock and roll. Long live Al Rappa.
