Joey Dee - '60s Star With Joey Dee And The Starlighters: "The Peppermint Twist"!

Joey Dee and the Starlighters were Stars of the early 1960s. Joey wrote and sang “The Peppermint Twist”, a #1 song in 1962 that was integral to the worldwide twist dance craze phenomenon. They became the house band at The Peppermint Lounge in NYC, where people lined up each night to get in to rub elbows with the Stars of that era including Jackie Kennedy, Judy Garland and John Wayne.The band went on to have a number of other hits, and the list of famous musicians who played with Joey Dee includes Jimi Hendrix, Ronnie Spector of the Ronettes and Felix Cavaliere of The Rascals.My featured song is my reimagined version of Dobie Gray’s hit, “The ‘In’ Crowd” from the album PGS 7 by my band, Project Grand Slam.
