"If you tried to give rock and roll another name, you might call it 'Chuck Berry.'"

- John Lennon


I've been coming to where I am from the get go
Find that I can groove with the beat when I let go
So put your worries on hold
Get up and groove with the rhythm in your soul

One of the mt Rushmore faces of rock n roll.
The events in our lives happen in a sequence in time, but in their significance to ourselves they find their own order; the continuous thread of revelation.

Truly a pioneer. RIP.

You haven't lived until you've had a robot shart in your ear and followed along in the live setlist thread while it happens.

When I was a kid, if you were in a band, you HAD to know how to play Johnny B Goode, otherwise you weren't worth anything
RIP

You never drink alone when you have something good to listen to.

The foundation of rock n roll.
Stolen from Reddit but a great quote:
QuoteJohnny B. Goode is on the Voyager Record, if ever listened to he will be a defining part of what they know about our culture.

Johnny B. Goode is a partly autobiographical song where an illiterate country boy dreams of having his name in lights. Who knew his name would end up in the stars?
I'd rather dwell in some dark holler where the sun refuses to shine, where the wild birds of heaven can't hear me when I whine.

Everything is connected, because it's all being created by this one consciousness. And we are tiny reflections of the mind that is creating the universe.

RIP, one of the most influential musicians of all time.

But, I don't think our fans do happily lap it up, I think they go online and talk about how it was a bad show.

Saw him a few times, can't say they were good peformances, but it's bucket list stuff.  Still one of the founding fathers.  Embarrassed to say I don't think I have a single Chuck Berry record. Also, didn't he put a camera in the ladies room of his restaurant?  :laugh:

Also, feeling bad for his cousin about now....
