This is the Chubby Checker item to own..,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: All the Hits V.1 (Audio CD)
If you sift through virtually every other Chubby Checker compilation CD out there, you get variations of the same theme ad nauseum. The dances, hucklebuck, twist, limbo, more dances, on and on. Here you get a fair share of those but also some plain old good songs on everyday themes. This is worth owning for the sheer inclusion of "Black Cloud," basically a blues song but performed so robustly you would have a hard time believing Mr. Checker wasn't really happy. Maybe he was happy to at last be singing about something besides a dance. "Lovely Lovely" sounds like the Tokens joined in for some divine background vocals. Also included is "Hooka-Tooka" which received massive airplay on the Classic BIG WAYS radio show in Charlotte, NC, in the late 60's, legendary dee-jay Jack Gale would have listeners call in and sing along with the tune. I can't say that I've seen Volume Two of the series and I'm not sure what's left for inclusion there.
