Chubby Checker’s final top twenty album sees him branching out to include Jamaican and Latin tunes in his dance routine. Limbo Party includes the US No. 2 hit single Limbo Rock. Both Chubby and his dance crazes would be cast aside in the beat music revolution of the following year. (US:11)
"Limbo Rock brings back memories of the Limbo pole game that people use to play. Every time you went under, the bar got lower and lower, till nobody could get under it. The Limbo Rock song was always played during that game. I think all generations should listen to, dance to, and respect Chubby Checker's music.”
“Put your dancin’ shoes on and go back to the 60s, dance the Limbo and many more and have fun.”
“You cannot but help singing along to all your old favourites and those feet of yours, they cannot stop tapping.”
“Chubby Checker made music fun; you could have a great time dancing to the Limbo Rock over and over again. Chubby always managed to sound so energetic, new and fresh when he sang; and just one listen proves it.”
"Limbo Rock was a song played at many a teenage party back then; those teens had fun with this number and I can't imagine why they wouldn't have liked it.”
