Bill Black's Combo, Let's Twist Her (1962)

Tuesday's lunch record is "Bill Black's Combo, Let's Twist Her" (1962). The hot new dance craze that took the world by storm. Everybody jumped on the bandwagon to cash in on this new trend. Dance groups  show bands, pop to soul even big bands were grinding out twist records. Young folks and old alike were diggin' doing this new dance and buying twist records. On this album there is their versions of songs popular  at the time. "Night Train', "Corrina Corrina", "Johnny B. Goode" and "My Girl Joseohine: and "Slippin' And Slidin" all with adding the word twist behind it. Quite a fun album, the YouTube sample song is "Twist Her" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoCmxqAWPJM . . . . bucko
