"Twist And Shout" was written by Phil Medley and Bert Russell and was first recorded as "Shake It Up, Baby" by the Top Notes in 1960 with a very young Phil Spector producing. This recording flopped. Then the Isley Brothers decided to have a go at it, and Bert Russell changed the title to "Twist And Shout". Their recording with Ron Isley doing the lead vocal went to #17 on the pop charts during the summer of '62. The following year, the Beatles would famously cover the tune with John Lennon singing lead.
