~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ R.I.P. Chuck

One of the true pioneers of early Rock & Roll guitar players. RIP Chuck!

RIP.

That sucks! Grew up on Chucks's tunes. Haven't seen him for some time now.

Roll over (and make room), Beethoven.

i'm sincerely sorry to hear that Chuck has left the building.

oh, Maybeline.

Those women he secretly taped in his restaurant bathroom ever catch up with him?

Yes indeed. RIP.

Damn! Another original gone-- RIP Chuck!
Your music will live on.

He introduced a lot of us to rock 'n roll. His short film, "Hail, Hail Rock and Roll" with Keith Richards was a classic for sure.

Never cared for him.

Sam

pioneer for sure,RIP

Good run to 90 yr old

Whether you liked him / his music ... he definitely inspired a lot of musicians (who made a hell of a lot more money than he ever did). He made it to 90 .... not a bad ride!

As a young teenager in the early 50's, I got fired on rock n roll by this guy, along with Bill Haley and others.

RIP.

RIP Chuck, cwit playin' with your own ding-a-ling!

Sorry to hear, he was a pioneer, enjoyed his stuff.

Go Chuck !!!

well Darn. I was looking on Youtube yesterday, listening to Nadine. What a great song.

Dam....just dam....

It's always a surprise when they go at 90.

Wonder if he could still plow with a guitar???

Hopefully he made it to heaven and he can watch women poop there.


Too soon?

May the Rock Chuck R.I.P


And thank god for DeLoreans and flux capacitors....

What the phouc is WRONG with you ?

Wise up gomer.

He was a pioneer, a legend, and someone who I thought had already died years ago.

RIP Mr. Berry.

Grew up on Chuck Berry,Little Richard,Elvis,Fats Domino,Bill Haley and the Comets,Jerry Lee Lewis.Saw them all in person.Nothin better than a 56 Chevy2door hardtop with a injected 327 ,4 speed,AM,FM radio with reverb and a case of beer!!!

i always thought schiltz was good to go. in a pinch, PBR (cool blue) would do too.

cooks special export in a pinch. bet there ain't a soul on here ever heard of that one?

Saw him in concert a true pioneer RIP

May God Bless him

I'll breeding and a poor raising.

It shows.

RIP Chuck. Check out Shemane Nugent's tribute.

Your copy stinks.

Were you his video man?

As I was motivating over the hill, I saw Maybeline in a Coup Deville. That was a goodun!!

RIP He will always be remembered as a king.

A close relative's dad worked as a guard for a while at the prison in Springfield, MO, back when Chuck Berry was incarcerated there. Said his memory of him is he was generally a likeable character. Popular with other prisoners and not a problem for the guards. Interestingly also said Berry performed outside the prison walls at 'private gatherings and parties' for unknown 'special' guests occasionally during his time there.
------------------

(As an aside The Birdman of Alcatraz was there at the same prison around the same time too. Said unlike Chuck Berry the real Birdman was no where near like the person portrayed by Burt Lancaster in the movie about him. His recollection of the Birdman was as a creepy, obnoxious, disgusting, trouble instigating, total paranoid nut case. Shaved every hair off of his body head to toe and went naked all he could get away with.)

His cousin Marvin was a pretty nice guy, too...


I saw Chuck in concert four times which is the most I've ever seen a single performer or band. Most of those times he was in his 50's or even early 60's. You'd think by then he'd be sick of playing the same stuff for decades but he was still cranking out a lot of energy on stage.

He could play!

Use to see him now and then around town in Wentzville Mo, when I lived down there for 18 months...

He was a character, real humble guy to the locals..

and like everyone else, enjoyed some of his music...

Johnny be Good...

RIP Chuck....................

Another Salute to CB from Uncle Ted...
