FRIDAY FAVOURITES No 27
Once again I've been browsing through YouTube and trying to decide which song I'd choose for today. I have always loved real rock and roll and there is just so much on offer. There's Little Richard, Bill Haley...oh, just so many of them and then I came across this one with Chubby Checker singing and dancing "Let's Twist Again". I remember it so well and, of course, when we went dancing we all did the twist.
I'm not sure if the younger ones will enjoy this but it's the type of music I grew up with in my teen years and beyond and I still enjoy it so much.

Great song! I remember the 'Twisting' years. I remember showing my mum how, then watching her at dances. Fifteen stone of jiggling fat, twisting away....she never did get the hang of twisting down, then up again, but she always had a fabulous time.
ReplyDeleteSeems I may have hit the jackpot with this one. Glad it brought back good memories. Not sure I was too good at the up and down bit either.

ReplyDeleteOH yes, Mimsie, mum and I used to twist crazy in our little ol' kitchen!!! You do bring back the memories darlin'.... YAM xx
Glad this one stirred happy memories for you too Yam. Had to have lots of energy in those days. Now they just seem to stand and wave their arms around. xx
DeleteYES! Great choice. I used to love to twist. Not everyone could do a super jitterbug, but we could ALL twist! It was great exercise, too...
ReplyDeleteGlad it pleased you as well. I could never jive but the twist was great fun and not at all difficult to do. Those were fun times.
