Bill Hailey and his Comets version, 2 months after the original, was the definitive recording of this Rock and Roll song

First recorded in Nov 1955 by Bobby Charles as Later Alligator.
Bill Hailey extended the title to See You Later, Alligator, which was a popular catchphrase at the time in New York City.

Interesting. Never heard this version. Actually pretty close to Bill Haley's other than the sax and a little more drive on the drums. Good post.
