Boss and Shout
What could be more natural than the sheer exuberance of "Twist and Shout" being revived by the most exuberant live rock artist of his generation, Bruce Springsteen. Here is a performance before a massive crowd in Brazil, the final concert in the 1988 Amnesty International benefit tour. You'll see Sting on stage, and catch a glimpse of Peter Gabriel, both of whom were headliners along with the Boss. Catch this super enthusiastic, super hip crowd as they anticipate the move from "Twist and Shout" to the older song at its root, "La Bamba."
