The first vocal version was recorded in 1962 by Chubby Checker (on Parkway Records): it peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and at number one on the Cash Box charts. The Chubby Checker recording also made it to number three on the R&B charts.[1] Checker then released a sequel, Let's Limbo Some More, in 1963 and that peaked at #20 in the Billboard chart..
