TWIST AND SHOUT

This is the very first rare recording of Twist and Shout that the Top Notes did in 1961 on Atlantic Records. It was produced by a then unknown.... Phil Spector!! The Beatles mostly were inspired by the Isley Brothers cover of 1962 but still it's interesting to hear how the original differs from the Isley Brothers and then the famous Beatles version.
