Very unlikely Bill Haley, at the same theatre and the same year, who when a few people jumped up on stage to dance, Haley had the fire curtain pulled down and left the stage - end of show!

Chuck was magnificent. The word "legend" gets thrown around so easily these days but I have no qualms whatsoever in applying it to Chuck. I had the pleasure of seeing him at a "Legends of Rock n Roll" concert in 1989 as a 19 year old and he could still rock the house at 63. None of my friends wanted to go so I went on my own as I love 50's and 60's rock n roll but I still enjoyed myself as it was a great concert and one that I'll never forget. RIP Mr Berry.

[@drwisdom1]

Mr. Berry was a pioneer of modern musical entertainment. From rock, to guitar dancing, to wireless vocal and guitar decades before it was created.

[@JClaus1221]

His entire stage act he took from T-Bone Walker, and even he admitted it. His style was the creation of Willie Dixon, who took a lousy tune in Maybellene and turned it into a classic. He also produced uncredited every cut Chuck ever did with Chess in the 50s. His guitar licks were just sped up swipes of almost every solo T-Bone ever did. Chuck packaged everything well, and lord knows the brit invasion crowd loved him, but he was no pioneer. Plenty of others were rockin hard before he ever did a thing, but he did have some great tunes. (Much thanks to Johnnie Johnson again uncredited, though the RRHOF finally gave him credit).

[@drwisdom1]

@@JClaus1221 Didn't you notice the part about "wireless vocal and guitar"? They didn't have that then. Mr. Berry wasn't just lip syncing, he wasn't even playing his guitar. That is what entertainers do, not musicians. But I don't want to be too hard on such old content.

But even with that, he still scored 5 top 10 hits on the Billboard pop chart within the decade of the 50's, which is more than Little Richard, Bill Haley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Buddy Holly, Carl Perkins, Sam Cooke, Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochran, Ritchie Valens and even Ray Charles had within that decade. In fact, of all the legendary rock stars of the '50's, only Elvis Presley, Fats Domino, The Everly Brothers and Ricky Nelson(if you include him in that group, instead of with the "teen idols") had more top ten pop hits with Rock songs back then.
