Chanteur Rock
'n' Roll noir US né Ernest Evans, le 3 octobre 1941 à Philidelphie (Pennsylvanie). Chubby Checker a enregistré son premier single en 1959 chez Parkway Records. En 1960, il sort une chanson de
Hank Ballard :"The Twist" et devient le Roi de cette danse, figurant pendant 3 ans dans les hits parades mondiaux. Depuis, Chubby Checker tourne dans les circuits des cabarets et des night-clubs de l'ouest des Etats Unis.
Chubby
Checker was the unrivaled king of the rock & roll dance craze; although most of
the dances his records promoted -- the Pony, "the Fly," and the Hucklebuck, to
cite just three -- have long since faded into obscurity, his most famous hit,
"The Twist," remains the yardstick against which all subsequent dancefloor
phenomena are measured. Born Ernest Evans on October 3, 1941, in Philadelphia,
he worked in a local poultry shop while in high school, and while on the job
often entertained customers by singing and cracking jokes. His workplace antics
helped win an audition with the local Cameo-Parkway label, who signed the
fledgling singer in 1959; at the suggestion of no less than Dick Clark's wife,
the portly youth was re-christened Chubby Checker, the name a sly reference to
Fats Domino.
Checker's first single, "The Class," showcased his skills as an impressionist;
while the record became a minor novelty hit, none of its immediate follow-ups
were successful. In 1960, however, he recorded "The Twist," a cover of a 1958
Hank Ballard & the Midnighters B-side;
Checker's rendition de-emphasized the original's overtly sexual overtones,
focusing instead on the song's happy-go-lucky charms. The single rocketed to
number one during the autumn of 1960, remaining on the charts for four months;
some time after it dropped off, it slowly returned to prominence, and in late
1961 it hit number one again; the only record ever to enjoy two stays at the top
more than a year apart. After "The Twist" first made Checker a superstar, he
returned to the top in 1961 with "Do the Pony"; that same year, he also reached
the Top Ten with "Let's Twist Again," which assured the dance's passage from
novelty to institution.
In addition to 1961's "The Fly," Checker's other Top Ten hits included three
1962 smashes: "Slow Twistin'," "Limbo Rock," and "Popeye the Hitchhiker." He
even starred in a pair of feature films, Twist Around the Clock and
Don't Knock the Twist. In total, Checker notched 32 chart hits before the
bubble burst in 1966; as interest in dance novelties dwindled, he briefly turned
to folk music, and became a regular on the nightclub circuit. From the 1970s
onward, he was a staple of oldies revival tours; in 1982, more than a decade
after his last studio LP, he signed with MCA and issued the disco-inspired
The Change Has Come, scoring a pair of minor hits with the singles "Running"
and "Harder Than Diamond." In 1988, Checker returned to the Top 40 for the first
time in a quarter century when he appeared on the Fat Boys' rap rendition of
"The Twist," and he continued touring regularly throughout the decade to follow.
