? CHUCK BERRY punched KEITH RICHARDS in the face. RICHARDS was playing on CHUCK BERRYS' album and kept arguing with CHUCK BERRY. CHUCK told Keith Richards, "When it's your record you play it your way This is my record and that's the way I want it done." Richards continued arguing with Chuck Berry and Berry clocked Keith Richards square in the face. Chuck punched him for doing just what you see him doing here, in the beginning. CHUCK BERRY checked Keith Richards' ego.

What a moment for kieth. I mean Chuck was his hero.

[@BarryWarne]

0:48 If looks could kill ... Keith had been playing Chuck Berry songs for decades at this point and arguably knew them better than Chuck did. Sometimes Chuck simply wanted to remind Keith where the Rolling Stones came from, upon which giant shoulders Mick & Keith stood : )

[@LIZZIE-lizzie]

@@BarryWarne If Richards knew BERRYS' tunes BETTER than the man who wrote the music, he would have played it that way, considering he's playing with the man who made the sound. Richards gave no respect to that. You don't see CHUCK BERRY telling Richards to play that "sound" the way BERRY wants it to be heard, again and again? Listen to GARCIA play the same lick. He plays it with CHUCK BERRYS' intonation. Listen to BERRY and RICHARDS live with CLAPTON and you'll hear RICHARDS play this same lick with the same intonation as CHUCK BERRY.

[@Margaretv-x8l]

Chuck is not the one to give Keith a lesson!

[@the_koschi]

This is so interesting to watch. Since becoming famous, Keith surely was reminded very rarely by anyone that there are still things to learn (although I always wondered what was going on in his mind when he hung with Hendrix), and here he has to take lesson from one of the few people that he actually allowed to teach him. 🙂

[@keefriff99]

Did Keith hang with Hendrix? I’ve never heard any stories of them spending any significant time together. I see there are some photos of them backstage somewhere, which are really cool. I’d never seen them before.

[@jg6698]

He hung with Hendrix doing what made him famous in the debased American culture-dope

[@markvaught672]

​@@jg6698 And you come by this information how exactly? Just curious? I've heard stuff, but I don't deal in rumor, heresay, speculation, gossip, old wives tales and other assorted bullshit. Give me something more substantial and well documented and confirmed, verified, and perhaps even vouched for by more than one person. 😅😊 However, my other thought on the matter is who gives two shits what Richards and Hendrix did in their free time when together. It's really between them, God and perhaps,a fly or two on the wall.

[@jg6698]

@@markvaught672 Oh, excuse me. One of them died of an overdose during this period and the other has a well documented history of narcotics arrest in Europe and particularly North America, remember Toronto and Arkansas? He plead guilty in both North American arrest. So folks who spend their time using logic and not composing cutesy responses on youtube (complete with smiley face emojis) can reasonably conclude they got high in each others company. I was of age and enjoyed both Hendrix and the Stones but alas was never invited to socialize with either outfit. No pictures. We agree on not giving a hoot what they did. If I offended you with my flippant original response to the other poster, my most humble apology. It was gleaned from decades of observation at what the drug culture has done to this country. Like many I am grateful I survived.

0:45 La cara de Keith no tiene precio ajajaja, es como si dijera: "Lo tolero solo porque es Chuck Berry, si fuera Mick le rompería la cara" xd

[@joltedlozengek4708]

The comments on this video disappoint me. Chuck is just trying to show the Keith the way he wants the intro played and the way it is played on record. Keith obviously has no issue with this intention but is just frustrated at himself for not being able to do so. All musicians have times when stuff just wont quite go right, and pressure is often a massive factor. Imagine Chuck Berry is standing next to you, and it’s easy to see why Keith may have just had moment going brain dead. Chuck isn’t nasty about him getting it wrong, he’s encouraging and is there to do what everyone else is, rehearse. Moments like these are why we have rehearsals. On a side note, I remember listening to that fill chuck does at the end and thinking it was probably the nicest rock n roll fill I’d ever heard and sitting down and working it out at like 14/15 years old. Good times. It’s not hard but back then it was a task for my ears and eyes to work together to unravel that fill.

[@aaronaldrich4577]

[@alexandrelaurent7941]

Yes I totally agree. Keith lost focus a moment. But I think he did the greatest job at the final show.

[@diamonddog3685]

@@danielmoore9209 Keith is a very loose bordering on sloppy player with a lot of groove and feeling. Chuck is a virtuoso perfectionist. Very different styles, IMO. I saw this moment as him being a perfectionist. But there are other moments in the doc where he is definitely fucking with Keith by rehearsing in one key and then trying to change the key before playing live on stage. He developed this bitter habit after being fucked with by racist backup players (chosen by promoters) that would try and mess him up. So he started retaliating against white players later in his career. The doc goes deep on this psychology. He was a complicated dude.

[@matiasmoulin2126]

I agree completely. Keith just can't get the riff right, even I can hear that. That's just a fact. But we know from his book that Chuck was a complete dick anyway and a major disappointment. His look at 0:45 says everything.

@@soleihamburgerworth341 cause they are one of the greatest bands of all time and Brian Wilson, the leader, by himself wrote one of the best if not THE best pop album of all time... just cause they copied a riff from Chuck early on their carrer doesn’t mean that they are a bad band

[@ewm335]

@@user-rj5uj8cc4f The Beach Boys, the Stones and the Beatles all became international stars with a good deal of their set lists either covering or ripping off Chuck. (“Fun Fun Fun” might be “copying” a riff but “Surfin’ USA” does a little more than that.) All three obviously became far more than Chuck clones. But if you’re Chuck Berry sitting at home in 1964, records not doing as well as they used to, and you see a bunch of kids on the Ed Sullivan Show playing your music and selling millions of records for doing so, might you develop a wee bit of a chip on your shoulder?

Thanks for uploading this video. It has been missing from KZbin for sometime. What makes it so good is not only the song, but Chuck Berry and Keith Richards were rated as the best two lead guitarist of their day and seeing them rehearing together is an absolute Gem. Also Chuck is a perfectionist who would fly off the handle every now and again. This has to be the best jamming video of them both on KZbin.

[@RG-od8ri]

Berry was a jerk who didn’t put on a good show for decades and received 10k up front for our privilege. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rajLnYSdq7OHfKs

[@EH-bg1yo]

Chuck was mainly a rythm player on most of his records

[@dorianvaz7572]

Neither Chuck or Keith were ever rated as two best lead guitarists, ever. Because they never were. Plenty of other guys got that recognition during those years

Keith Richards is outrageously overrated as a guitarist. Just look at him. Most of the time he's just showing off with stoned poses.

When I first saw the film, I thought Chuck was methodical. But now I can see that Chuck is teaching Keith not to compromise. Keith didn't really realise that at the time. 'A pupil doesn't realise it when he's told, but after a while you appreciate your master.

0:55 what'd you say? 0:57 Aww shyt, Chucks gonna kill Keith

[@TheReal1953]

Yeah, well supposedly Richards "let" Berry insult him for the PR. There's also a story that Berry slapped Richards in the face for touching one of his guitars. The Stones stole Black R&B from the original artists just like all the other white rock artists did back in the day. So it would be pretty stupid of Richards to argue with Berry on how he played his original riffs.

[@zacharyjohnson6453]

I would have had the guts to tell Chuck that so many of his guitar riffs and a lot of his songs sound exactly the same. If you listen to songs like Johnny Be Goode, Hail Hail Rock N' Roll, and Run Run Rudolph they have a groove that's very near identical. If his songs were a little faster they'd sound better, that's why I like the version of Johnny B Goode from Back to the Future because it has a lot has more swing, is more up-tempo, gives you dancing in a school gym rockabilly feel.

[@willdodge200]

Chuck Berry was a a-hole. He wasn't that good of a guitar player. Johnnie Johnson carried his sound. Keith was playing it right. Berry was jealous of other people that were better than him.
