Best Rock Albums 1962

1962's Best Rock Albums list defines a year that went twisting mad, literally! The Twist dance craze of 1962 defines one of the biggest dance crazes of all time. You think the Macarena was big? At least Van Halen didn't release an album of Macarena dance tunes or Black Sabbath present an album of Macarena metal mixes. Sounds far out? Well, in 1962 that's exactly what rock and roll artists did. Some of the great rock and roll pioneers of the 1950s like Chuck Berry and Bill Haley all released albums focused on twisting music because the twist was the biggest thing in pop culture. Looking back, it pretty much got out of hand, but there was money to be made and so record companies and musical artists all jumped on the bandwagon and released albums full of twisting music. You can blame it all on Chubby Checker, because that's the dude that started at all.
