The image captures none other than Bill Haley and his Comets in all their glory at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff on May 2nd, 1968. Bill Haley, the iconic pioneer of rock and roll music, stands proudly beside his Ford Galaxy car. But what truly sets this picture apart is the sight of his vehicle covered with slogans and messages scrawled in lipstick by adoring fans.
