The Beatles ::: Twist and Shout lyrics

Twist and shout by the Beatles lyrics below (originally released on their first LP in 1962 Please, Please Me) was most probably their fans most loved tune ... John Lennon belted out the lead whilst they all sang their characteristic woooohhhhs in harmony for the first time on record and shaking their (for those days) shaggy manes.
This version sounds like it was the Sunday Night at the London Palladium one. * John Lennon rhythm guitar, lead vocals * Paul McCartney bass guitar, backing vocals * George Harrison lead guitar, backing vocals * Ringo Starr drums

Twisting was inspired by Chubby Checker
Twist and Shout was originally recorded by the Topnotes in 1961 and then covered by The Isley Brothers in 1962. After The Beatles it was covered by amongst others Brian Poole and the Tremeloes and the Mamas and Papas.

Lyrics
written by Phil Medley and Bert Russell

Frustrated old black dudes who can't accept that the isleys didn#t even have 5 % of the Beatles talent.
