Everyone in America was doing the Peppermint Twist with Joey Dee and The Starliters during the first weeks of 1962. It was the hottest record in the country, and The Peppermint Lounge, where the band performed six nights a week in midtown Manhattan, was the epicenter of jet-setting cool, celebrities of all stripes fighting to get through the door to witness Joey and his crew doing their high-energy Twist thing. It's been a long time since Dee's Roulette Records catalog has been granted deluxe CD treatment, so this disc is a welcome development. All of the group's big ones are here-both parts of Peppermint Twist, the movie soundtrack smash Hey, Let's Twist, their torrid remake of The Isley Brothers' Shout!, even their rare pre-Roulette rockers on the Little and Scepter labels. Joey and his Starliters cut two spectacular live albums at the Peppermint in late '61 with organist Carlton Lattimore and drummer Willie Davis tearing it up behind Dee and his front line (including David Brigati); many of their highlights are here too. Whether rocking This Boat or going uptown soul with a Johnny Nash-penned What Kind Of Love Is This, Mr. Dee was a cool guy -and gave a great interview recently, as the accompanying liner notes illustrate.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFanny Mae\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeppermint Twist -Part I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMother Goose Twist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShimmy Baby -Part I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeak Up Mambo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeave My Woman Alone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlippin' and Slidin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrazy Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC.C.
