Chuck Berry Performs "You Can't Catch Me" in 1956's "Rock, Rock, Rock!"

[@richardbanker6041]

Chuck Berry was the guy who the Beatles and Rolling Stones had in common and both groups loved what he did. Chuck was way ahead of his time as a lyricist and was such a great guitarist.

[@redfox7490]

The way he was able to hook up the video camera in the women's toilet, no easy but chuck would do anything to watch a woman have a dump, pure class 👍

[@mickburke1]

way ahead of any time as a lyricist imo ......you can't catch him as a lyricist

[@huntergreen1767]

​@redfox7490 You know, it's pretty petty to only see the bad in someone when they make a few mistakes, and overlook all the great things they did in their life entirely. We're all human beings, and we make mistakes. Stop being so vindictive and shunning people constantly, when, I guarantee you've done something just as bad, or maybe even worse at some point in your life. You may actually find joy one day if you can just learn to forgive.

@@huntergreen1767 Berry also stole songs from pianist Johnnie Johnson. You don't think that Berry wrote all of those songs by himself do you? Johnson was going to sue but time ran out. Listen to numerous songs and you'll notice that they are NOT guitar songs but piano songs - for example, "Roll Over Beethoven".

[@JimDeferio]

​@@Brother_Dre1900 You need to hear the hundreds of rock n roll and rockabilly songs from the 1950's. Berry was mainly rockabilly and he really wasn't special and he outright stole songs from black pianist Johnnie Johnson. Johnson sued but eventually the Statute of Limitations took effect and the lawsuit had to be dropped. For example, does "Roll Over Beethoven" sound like a piano song or a guitar song? I play guitar and to me both "Roll Over Beethoven" AND "Can't Catch Me" sound like a piano songs, and the same for other supposed Chuck Berry songs. Why rockabilly people like Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis and a couple of others were exalted in the public eye and someone like Johnny Burnette wasn't doesn't seem to be about talent and merit but about money and whoever is willing to play along with the record companies.

1:10 "Here come old flat-top" was one lyric John Lennon couldn't resist swiping for the Beatles' "Come Together."

[@beninua]

John Lennons first edition of this song sounded much more like this song by Chuck Berry. As a matter of fact it got changed due to a warning from both Paul McCartney and their record producer that the original was a flat out rip off. (see kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHKtZoChesiIj8k) So they changed it and makes the chorus break up into a minor chord before hitting the sub-dominant chord in an otherwise traditional round of chords.

[@klmullins65]
