Hank, has to be one of the greatest ever. For me Little Richard is the best ever and ever to be, but, Hank Ballard ain't but a half step behind him.. Love em both... Peace
One of my morning songs. This is the definition of upbeat. Drummer and sax. That guitar at the beginning. Never better. Thank you, Hank Ballard! Thank you, Midnighters!
Man, this is the real street shit and Hank Ballard was one bad dude. Could sing and move like Ali too.. Love this song and even though a street corner defender(SPORTS) of the old school (Detroit Visitation), Zilla would strut a bit when Hank was bringing this down on you all. Never made a bad record. They were all bad if you get my meaning.
As a former NYC radio station recording engineer , I must compliment you " twodawgzz " for this excellent posting of " Let's Go Let's Go " by Hank Ballard and The Midnighters....your upload produced exceptional audio quality...truly professional quality....the track is one of my lifetime favorites...truly dynamite .
Hank Ballard created the "Twist" song before Chubby Checker recorded it and I thank him. I can remember going to Record Hops and dancing to his song.
