Chuck Berry - Roll Over Beethoven (1972)

An excellent performance and maybe that was needless to say, after all it is Chuck we speak of and who we owe so much too, he was one of the ones that got us where we are musically speaking of course, very talented man, one of the best, in my book anyway, enjoy, Dave :)

[@Foxtrot1967]

I think it's Elvis but seeing your comment, fair enough.

[@Flippie123]

Nah. He was a very VERY bad guitarplayer actually. Listen to this crap. Never heard such a bad solo. He is a legend because of Johnny B. Good. That's all.

[@mike7696]

Elvis is “King” but Chuck is the “Grandfather.” Chuck did it before Elvis, the Beatles, etc.

Chuck Berry is the most underrated musician in the history of music.

[@sirjanska9575]

More like the most overrated considering his legend status and extreme slop as a guitar player

[@MrLaydownsally]

[@sirjanska9575]

@@MrLaydownsally He wasn't that good even by the standards of his day. Much, much less well known rock and blues guitarists like Elmore James, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, B. B. King, Buddy Guy, Link Wray, Dick Dale, Pat Hare, James Guitar Watson, Freddie King and Roy Clark all trumped his abilities with ease.

[@MrLaydownsally]

@@sirjanska9575 you don't get it , he was more Mr rock n roll than you think , you're just basing it on guitar prowess, that means nothing , Joe bonamassa is one one of the best guitarists out there but , oh boy , I'm bored after five minutes. I'm talking the whole package, the persona , the way they carry themselves , the rock n roll antics , the girls , the drugs , the jail time etc etc but what he puts down in his lyrics , in the feel of the song , in the delivery, the performance, he hits bonamassa out of the park. Keith Richards is not the most dynamic player either but you don't get any more rock n roll than him , I can play in the style of berry ( just about) and I'm a drummer....don't confuse ability with persona , look at Elvis ,he could strum 3 chords just about and never wrote a hit but he was rock n roll too.

Je veux bien qu'il ait une tête sympathique et qu'il ait été un des inventeurs du rock and roll mais de là à le qualifier de meilleur guitariste de tous les temps...Fallait il être un crétin fini comme John Lennon pour sortir une ânerie pareille (en même temps, quand on écoute les prestations de Lennon à la guitare on comprend mieux)...Bref! Le Chuck en question à appris à jouer de la guitare seul, c'est bien, ça s'entend, ça se respecte mais c'est particulièrement calamiteux et franchement cela ne vaut pas une bille.
