'New York radio is going to make sure that nobody will come and see Chubby
Checker because nobody plays Chubby Checker. By 2018 people will think the Beatles
did 'The Twist,' not Chubby Checker. ... Is something wrong with me? It's not
just New York that's not playing my music. It's the whole planet.'
Chubby Checker, bemoaning radio's paltry spins of his old and new material,
even though his new song 'Limbo Rock Remixes' has reached No. 16 on the 'Billboard'
dance chart.
