Even so, his all-time-known song is the hit "Let's Twist Once more", released i year later (in 1962); that year he also popularized the song "Limbo Rock", originally a previous year instrumental hit by the Champs to which he added lyrics, and its trademark Limbo dance, likewise equally others dance styles such as The Fly. In September 2008, "The Twist" topped Billboard 's list of the virtually popular singles to have appeared in the Hot 100 since its debut in 1960, an accolade it maintained for an August 2013 update of the listing.[one]
Early life [edit]
Checker was born Ernest Evans in Jump Gully, South Carolina.[ii] He was raised in the projects of S Philadelphia, where he lived with his parents, Raymond and Eartle Evans,[three] and two brothers.[4] By age eleven, Evans formed a street-corner harmony group. Past the time he entered high school, Ernest had learned to play the piano a little at Settlement Music School. He entertained his classmates by performing song impressions of popular entertainers of the day, such every bit Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis Presley and Fats Domino.[5] 1 of his classmates and friends at South Philadelphia High School was Fabiano Forte, who would become a popular performer of the late 1950s and early on 1960s as Fabian.[four]
Later on school Evans would entertain customers at his various jobs, including Fresh Farm Poultry in the Italian Marketplace on Ninth Street and at the Produce Market, with songs and jokes. Information technology was his boss at the Produce Market, "Tony A.", who gave Evans the nickname "Chubby". The possessor of Fresh Farm Poultry, Henry Colt, was so impressed by the boy's performances for the customers that he, forth with his colleague and friend Kal Mann, who worked as a songwriter for Cameo-Parkway Records,[6] arranged for young Chubby to do a private recording for American Bandstand host Dick Clark. At this recording session Evans got his stage name from Clark's wife, who asked Evans what his name was. "Well," he replied, "my friends phone call me 'Chubby'." Equally he had just completed a Fats Domino impression, she smiled and said, "As in Checker?" That lilliputian play on words ("chubby" describing a degree of fatness and "checkers" beingness, like "dominoes," a tabletop game) got an instant laugh, and stuck: from then on, Evans would utilise the proper noun "Chubby Checker".[7]
Career [edit]
1950s-1960s [edit]
In December 1958, Checker privately recorded a novelty single for Clark in which the singer portrayed a school teacher with an unruly classroom of musical performers. The premise allowed Checker to imitate such acts as Fats Domino, The Coasters, Elvis Presley, Cozy Cole, and The Chipmunks, each singing "Mary Had a Little Lamb". Clark sent the song out as his Christmas greeting, and information technology received such good response that Cameo-Parkway signed Checker to a recording contract.[eight] Titled "The Grade", the single became Checker'south commencement release, charting at No. 38 in the spring of 1959.[9]
Checker introduced his version of "The Twist" at the age of eighteen in July 1960 in Wildwood, New Jersey at the Rainbow Society. "The Twist" went on to top the Billboard Hot 100 not just once in 1960, but yet once more in a separate chart run in late 1961. The offset success was attributed to teens, and the unprecedented second number-one Billboard ranking was driven by older audiences post-obit a spirited live performance[ten] of the song by Checker on The Ed Sullivan Show, seen by over 10 million viewers.[11] (Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" had also accomplished number 1 twice on Billboard 'due south earlier chart.)
"The Twist" had previously peaked at No. 16 on the Billboard rhythm and dejection chart, in the 1959 version recorded by its writer, Hank Ballard, whose band The Midnighters kickoff performed the dance on stage. Checker's "Twist", however, was a nationwide boom, aided by his many appearances on Dick Clark's American Bandstand, the Top 10 American Bandstand ranking of the vocal, and the teenagers on the evidence who enjoyed dancing the Twist. The song was so ubiquitous that Checker felt that his critics idea that he could only succeed with dance records typecasting him equally a dance creative person. Checker later on lamented: "... in a way, "The Twist" really ruined my life. I was on my fashion to becoming a big nightclub performer, and "The Twist" merely wiped it out ... Information technology got then out of proportion. No one ever believes I accept talent."[12] By 1965 alone, "The Twist" had sold over 15 million copies, and was awarded multiple gilt discs by the RIAA.[13]
Despite Checker'southward initial disapproval, he constitute follow-up success with a succession of up-tempo dance tracks, including "The Hucklebuck" (#fourteen), "The Fly" (#7), "Dance the Mess Around" (#24), and "Pony Time", which became his 2nd No. 1 unmarried.[9] Checker'southward follow-up "twist" single, "Let'due south Twist Once again", won the 1962 Grammy Honor for Best Stone and Roll Recording.[14] A 1962 duet with Dee Dee Sharp, "Boring Twistin'", reached No. 3 on the national charts. Other substantial hits included "Dancin' Political party", "Popeye the Hitchhiker", "Twenty Miles", "Birdland", "Loddy Lo", and a Christmas duet with Bobby Rydell, "Jingle Bong Rock". "Limbo Stone" reached No. 2 on 22–29 December 1962, condign Checker's terminal Top Ten hit. Checker connected to have Top 40 singles until 1965, his final being "Allow's Do the Freddie" (#40), a variation on Freddie and the Dreamers' dance melody "Do the Freddie", with new melody and lyrics. Changes in public tastes, attributable mostly to the British Invasion and counterculture era, concluded his hit-making career. He spent much of the residue of the 1960s touring and recording in Europe.
1970s–1990s [edit]
"The Twist" was recorded for Cameo-Parkway Records and along with the label'southward other material, became unavailable subsequently the early 1970s because of the company's internal legal disputes. For decades, almost all compilations of Checker's hits consisted of re-recordings. The 1970s saw him become a staple on the oldies excursion, including a temporary stint as a disco creative person. Checker continued to be a superstar in Europe with goggle box and records.[ citation needed ] A dance-floor encompass version of the Beatles' "Dorsum in the U.S.S.R." released in 1969 on Buddah Records, his commencement chart entry in three years, reached No. 82.[15] It was Checker'south final chart appearance until 1982 when he striking No. 92 with "Running".[9]
