About Twist Party
Product Description Take one part masked guitar mayhem, a trio of toe-tapping triplets from Trenton (well, just sisters, actually), and a hip-swiveling, bespectacled Scotsman and you have in your hands an instant party! While Los Straitjackets, The World Famous Pontani Sisters and Kaiser George have been dazzling audiences with their spectacular nightclub acts The Christmas Pageant and The Twist Party for the past few years, this is your first opportunity to take the magic home with you. On the Twist Party CD, there are 16 rockin' tunes - each with its own dance step: 13 original songs and 3 fabulous covers, including the perennial favorite "The Peppermint Twist." On the accompanying DVD, the Pontani Sisters teach you how to warm up, cool down and rock out to "The Kitty Kat" and "The Daddy-O" with step-by-step dance instruction. As a bonus, there are two music videos for "Secret Laboratory" (a/k/a The Mad ScienTwist) and "Twistin' Gorilla." Even if you are the proud owner of two left feet, this spectacular package should set you on the right track. This is a limited edition LP, there will only be one press of Twist Party on vinyl. Be sure to get yours now! All orders of this album come with a free digital version which you can download from your Stash right away! Amazon.com If it's tempting to characterize this delightfully dizzy collaboration between Nashville's masked surf-rock acolytes Los Straightjackets and hip-swiveling Brooklyn burlesque revivalists The World Famous Pontani Sisters as postmodern, perhaps one should lie down until the feeling passes. As ambitious fusion of vintage instrumental rock, video dance lessons, lucha libre couture, Chubby Checker, Merseybeat, and rhinestone-chic this CD/DVD set can't be denied--or rivaled, for that matter. With Scottish choreographer/Freddie Garrity lookalike Kaiser George handling vocal chores and occasional channeling of Fred Schneider, the Straitjackets rip through a tightly executed set of twist 'n' groove originals and covers of Fats Domino's "Domino Twist," Robert Parker's "Twistin' in Space," and Joey Dee's "Peppermint Twist." The band takes a faithful left-turn into Liverpool '63, with KG paying affectionate homage to Gerry Marsden and Wayne Fontana on "Isn't Love Grand" before serving up a couple of Halloween-ready slices of loop-rock via "All Back to Drac's" and the infectious "Mad Scientwist." The equally kitsch-cool DVD contains lovingly cheeseball videos for the latter and "Twistin' Gorilla," as well as the Pontanis teaching the steps for the "Kitty Cat" and "Daddy-O" dances. It's a party package that's as musically accomplished as it is culturally ditzy, one that may leave listeners wondering just what decade--or century--they're in. --Jerry McCulley
