Danny Cedrone

Danny Cedrone (born June 20, 1920, Jamesville, New York, USA - died June 17, 1954, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA) was an American guitarist and bandleader. In 1951, he was hired as a session guitarist to play on the recording of "Rocket 88" by Bill Haley And The Saddlemen, considered to be one of the first rock and roll recordings. He continued his association with Bill Haley, recording with Bill Haley And His Comets as a session musician on a number of occasions, including the hit "Rock Around the Clock" (1954). It is believed that he never joined Haley's band as he had his own group The Esquire Boys.
