Heh, I've got it. Chubby Checker. He covered the song "The Twist", which had been written by a group called Hank Ballard and the Midnighters. He made it a big hit and inspired the dance.

deckkeeper my loyal interpreter
Do me a  favor and download "Taking care of business" and "You aint heard nothing yet" and tell me you have never heard these songs.They are classics and played the world over.!!
Hope you all understood the clues. Turner was a very famous painter and overdrive refers to max revs.
