Chuck Berry Twist is a compilation album by rock and roll icon Chuck Berry. The album was released in February 1962 by Chess Records during Chuck Berry's imprisonment.[1] The title was an attempt to cash in on the new Twist craze instigated in 1960 by Chubby Checker, even though none of the songs musically conformed to the Twist style (indeed, most of the songs predated the introduction of the Twist). The album was reissued a year later with a new title: More Chuck Berry. The UK release of More Chuck Berry on Pye International in 1964 featured the same cover but a completely different track listing.
