March 18-2017. A very good top of this Sunday morning, by now we all have heard the news about Chuck Berry. Some of my favorite tunes are Maybellene and Memphis, Tennessee. Ironically I discovered Chuck in the early seventies via the Rolling Stones, in particular the song Little Queenie from the live album Get Yer Ya Ya’s Out! (released in 1970)
This You Tube clip simply is magic, How one legend is almost looking as a high-school kid with utter admiration to his master! Fantastic.
After my visit to Memphis and in particular Sun Studio I have been playing Chuck almost every single day!
90 years is a decent age to go, RIP Chuck!
