JIMMY Campbell from Clydebank and Betty Barclay from Anderston are just showing off here quite frankly in a Twist dancing competition at the Locarno ballroom in Sauchiehall Street in 1962. The Locarno was one of Glasgow's best known dance halls, with aficionados praising its sprung dance floor. It was named after the Swiss town presumably to give it a hint of glamour. But by the sixties ballroom dancing was dying out and Locarno owners were keen to promote more modern styles - thus the Twist competition, although male dancers in the background still have shirts and ties, so not everyone wanted to dip a toe, even one swivelling from side to side, in modernity.

Eventually the Locarno became Tiffany's discotheque where older rockers will vaguely remember a raucous Deep Purple concert there with a considerable police presence.

Now it is a casino, so the only way the Twist lives on is if you want a third card at the black-jack table.
