In The Rock 11/11/1958: In Cincinnati, Hank Ballard & the Midnighters record the original version of chart-topper “The Twist”, which climbs to No. 28 when it’s released as a single in 1960. #HankBallard #RockHonorRoll
Found another Hank Ballard & The Midnighters album today at a thrift. Its one of those amazing discs which sounds way better than it should given its very "well loved" status. The mono cartridge helps here as well. Check out the song "Look At Little Sister" which has a terrific ripper of a guitar solo in it.
