"Limbo Rock" is a popular song about limbo dancing written by Kal Mann(under the pseudonym Jon Sheldon) and Billy Strange. An instrumental version was first recorded by The Champs in 1961. The first vocal version was recorded in 1962 by Chubby Checker (on Parkway Records): it peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 for two weeks (held out by Telstar by The Tornados) and at number one on the Cash Box charts. The Chubby Checker recording also made it to number three on the R&B charts.[1]
Checker then released a sequel, Let's Limbo Some More, in 1963, which peaked at #20 in the Billboard chart.[2]
Not many copies of this 78 were released.
