Moon Walk (Twistin' The Night Away)

Nyah Shuffle · 1969
Recording

Released in 1969 by Sprong & The Nyah Shuffle on Grape as the flip-side pairing "Moon Walk" b/w "Think." The record circulated as a Jamaican boss reggae single and later turned up on reggae compilation releases. The single placed the Nyah Shuffle name into the late-1960s boss reggae catalog and reflected the era’s moon-themed dance craze, with the track later resurfacing on genre anthologies. Its continued compilation use confirms its standing as a collector-favorite cut from the period. "Moon Walk" has remained in circulation through reggae compilations and specialist DJ playlists, including Trojan retrospectives and later thematic sets. That reuse has kept the track visible far beyond its original 7-inch release.
