THE TWIST 24 K Gold Music 50s Music Rock Roll LIVE Fun

Welcome to 24K Gold Music Shows The Twist is an American pop song written and originally released in early 1959 (having been recorded on November 11, 1958) by Hank Ballard and the Midnighters as a Bside to Teardrops on Your Letter. Ballard s version was a moderate 1960 hit, peaking at number 28 on the Billboard Hot 100. Chubby Checker s 1960 cover version of the song gave birth to the Twist dance craze. His single became a hit, reaching number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on September 19, 1960, where it stayed for one week, and setting a record as the only song to reach number 1 in two different hit parade runs when it resurfaced and topped the popular hit parade again for two weeks starting on January 13, 1962. 24K Gold Music Shows does not currently perform any longer, but this page is now dedicated to reliving the past decade of performances show memories Our performances were packed with highenergy dancing and full vocal harmonies, hi br, br,
