Thank you Chuck for the tremendous and powerful legacy of Rock & Roll music you single handedly invented and left the world with. So many picked up a guitar and tried to copy what you did and became rock stars in their own right.Your songs are legendary and surpass generations. What would the world have been with out Chuck Berry? You are the roots, you are the true beginning,You are the true pioneer, you are the man that put it all together. I thank GOD that i had the chance to see you in concert several times over the years and LOVED every minute of it.Words couldn't describe seeing a true living legend perform.What would a Wurlitzer jukebox be without a couple of Chuck Berry records (remember those?) spinning in it??............Maybelline, Johnny B. Good, Roll over Beethoven, Rock & Roll music, School Days,..........TRUE ROCK & ROLL.........May GOD rest your soul Chuck and I THANK YOU for all the great music and truly the wonderful legacy you left us with and all the memories your songs brought!

Right before airtime of a live 1958 American Bandstand broadcast (which this isn't, but more about that later), Chuck announced to Clark," Ain't gonna do no dancing". Clark asked him to repeat that remark and after Berry did, Clark placed a call to Leonard Chess asking for some guidance on the matter. Chess told Clark to put Berry on the phone. Clark, to his dying day never knew what Chess said to Berry but when Chess hung up, Berry turned to Clark and basically said " Whatever you need me to do is fine by me ". This appearance and other Berry clips introduced by Clark are from "The Beech Nut Saturday Night Show",Clark's weekly variety show format that aired from 1958 to 1960, broadcast from "The Little Theater" in NYC and various remote locations across USA. These clips form the bulk of the early content available from the Dick Clark Media Archives as NONE of the 1957 through 1963 American Bandstand broadcasts are available save for one of three December 1957 American Bandstand episodes. The 12/16/57 and 12/17/57 episodes reside in broadcast museums, the third from 12/18/57 is in public domain much to Clark's lifelong dismay and is widely disseminated elsewhere on YT. One clip of Gene Vincent miming to " Dance To The Bop" from the December 17th episode is also available elsewhere on YT.

Charles Edward Anderson Berry (San Luis, Misuri, 18 de octubre de 1926-Wentzville, Misuri, 18 de marzo de 2017),[1]​[2]​ conocido artísticamente como Chuck Berry, fue un compositor, intérprete, cantante y guitarrista estadounidense. Es considerado uno de los músicos más influyentes de la historia del rock and roll,[3]​ siendo uno de los pioneros de dicho género musical. Gracias a canciones como "Maybellene" (1955), "Roll Over Beethoven" (1956), "Rock and Roll Music" (1957) y "Johnny B. Goode" (1958), Berry redefinió los elementos del rhythm and blues.[4]

[@mattwalker5129]

I didn't learn much in school back in 1969, except that I learned how to laugh and make others laugh. I was doing poorly in public school, so my parents enrolled my sister and I into a private school off of Woodridge and the 610 south loop in southeast Houston called Mt. Olive Lutheran school for 7th and 8th graders. On the first day, I immediately realized that the majority of the class were public school rejects for one reason or another, but the majority of them were incorrigible class clowns. Every Wednesday morning, we'd file into the adjoining church to do call-and-respond verses from Luther's Large Catechism. The priest (Master) would call out, "page 54," and the four of us - Mark Campbell, James Ward, Duane Honeycutt and myself (a modern-day version of The Bowery Boys) - would do our utmost to disrupt the proceedings. The Head Master would intone somberly, "What is the chief end of human life?" Our response as would-be scholars would be by reading aloud, in unison, "To know God by whom men were created." All well and good, except that Duane would cut an extremely loud fart, or James would somberly drone, "I saw a mouuuuuuse," accompanied by muffled snickering and guffawing. One time the priest came to our classroom to explain God's plan for us in the sexual realm, which was tantamount to him striding into the classroom in his boxer shorts and commanding us to not giggle. He earnestly clasped his hands together to show us the ideal union between man and wife, but every time he mentioned the word "sex" or "intercourse," our faces went beet red and our eyes popped out in an attempt to stifle laughter. Meanwhile, all the girls listened to the priest intently. During Mr. Stewart's history class, our thoughts would wander, and eventually we would persuade a kid named "Rick" to do his imitation of Donald Duck having an epileptic seizure. The four of us would then explode in unified guffaws as Mr. Stewart gazed at us with abject disgust. Upon entering the ninth grade and the number of students I was surrounded by grew from Mount Olive's thirty students to Dobie's 3000 students, I just became a face in the crowd, disappearing into the bricked-in, windowless vortex of teenage anonymity. Here is Chuck Berry's immortal paean to school day routine on Dick Clark's American Bandstand, replete with gum-popping Philly teens clapping in rhythm as Berry does the duck walk while lip syncing the lyrics without a cord plugged into his guitar. Hail, hail, Chuck Berry.
