Land Of 1000 Dances, Vol. 1 [Import]

• Track Listing

These are the songs that made ’50s and ’60s bodies shimmy and shake—not to mention duck, stroll, walk, swim, push & kick and twist & shout! Every dance craze hit is here, and of PARTICULAR note is Bob & Earl’s Harlem Shuffle, a 1963 hit that has been available only as a muddy distorted version—hear it now in its crystal-clear original state for the first time! In addition to the tunes related to the dances mentioned above, this 30-track import includes The Peppermint Twist Joey Dee & the Starliters; The Loco-Motion Little Eva; Hanky Panky Tommy James & the Shondells; Let’s Dance Chris Montez; C’mon & Swim Bobby Freeman; Cool Jerk Capitols; The Nitty Gritty Shirley Ellis, and more rug-cutting classics.
