January 13, 1962 – Chubby Checker went back to #1 on the US singles chart with “The Twist.” The song first went to #1 in Sept 1960 and became the first record in American chart history to top the charts on two separate occasions. “The Twist” is a twelve-bar blues song that gave birth to the Twist dance craze. The song was written and originally released in 1959 by Hank Ballard and the Midnighters as a B-side (to “Teardrops on Your Letter”) but was a minor hit. #ROCkabillyHop @chubby_checker #twist #OTD #RockNRoll #RocHop
