Musical Interlude: Bristol Stomp (1961-2)

The Dovells only had one huge hit, and it was 1961's "Bristol Stomp", which sold over a million copies, earning gold record status.

This clip comes from the 1962 movie, "Don't Knock The Twist", whose star, Chubby Checker, introduces the Dovells.



Checker had recorded his version of "Bristol", with the Dovells singing backup, on the album version of "Don't Knock The Twist". Ah, the innocent days.....
