Late Night Music Club with Chuck Berry

Man, when I first logged on to C&L and saw "Late Night Music Club with Chuck Berry" I was afraid I was gonna see RIP. Happily, he's still kickin'. Happy Birthday, Chuck! There would be no rock n roll without your unique lead guitar playing.

Somebody else I want to see before it's too late:

Wow! This really brings back memories. My parents were horrified when rock and roll came in. Oh those good old 50's and 60's. Good times. Chubby Checker and the TWIST. Oh yeah!!!!

Just watched

"Cadillac Records" on STARZ. Muddy Waters, Etta James, and the great Chuck Berry. Great movie.

Than you should see

Heck, it's worth the rental just for the parts with Keith Richards talking about having to deal with Chuck.
Keith is the bandleader.
At one point, Chuck walks up to Keith - mid song - and wants to change the key. Change the key during the song in the middle of a show!
He just shakes his head and says "no".
Classic.
Poor Keef probably went through a carton of smokes just that one night..

Happy 83rd birthday Mr. Berry.

Truly a founding father of rock and roll.

And here is the man who co-wrote
