The Twist: Hot 100

This collection celebrates a notable chart event of January 1962, namely when Chubby Checker's record 'The Twist' topped the US pop charts for the second time, signalling the approaching peak of the worldwide Twist dance craze - he had first made No.1 well over a year earlier, in September 1960, since which time the dance had started to catch on all round the world.
