Chubby Checker - "Goodbye Victoria"



My friend Doug put me up on this relatively unknown release from Chubby Checker, most well known for his hit "The Twist". Rumor has it that, when the general public's taste in music veered away from dance craze hits such as "The Twist", Chubby decided to go with the times and record a more experimental, somewhat PSYCHEDELIC record called Chequered. The record as a whole is great, and you'd honestly never even guess that it was a Chubby Checker record. If you're curious, check it out.
