Patti Smith 'Let's Twist Again' 1976
Patti Smith never recorded 'Let's Twist Again' and rarely played it live, so this is possibly the ONLY existing version! The Chubby Checker cover was filmed live in Belgium at the Cirque Royal for a TV feature on December 10 1976. The full feature with an interview and 2 more songs is here:
