Originally released on Parkway 811. Abkco finally decided to release "The Twist" on 45 rpm vinyl, in celebration of its 60th anniversary. This fine reissue has the old-style Parkway label design on the A side, and the newer style on the flip, which by the way hosts both of the B sides that accompanied the original and 1962 release of this huge hit. It comes in a heavy-paper picture sleeve, with the design that accompanied the 1962 hit release. This is a new, unplayed copy.
