I was blessed to see Chuck at an airport on his last tour. I saw an old gentleman with a funny hat, just sitting on a corner like just anybody, instead of being praised as the absolutely mythical rock&roll god that he was. I asked for a picture and he was the sweetest. He and his staff seemed quite surprised that a 20yo kid had recognized him. So, for a moment, I could hold one of the very hands that forged rock.

Chuck was attacked by the establishment and jailed, and harassed, for YEARS. When the Beach Boys recorded one of their big early 1960s hits - using Chuck's riffs as the basis, of course - they gave him a partial composer's credit, to help him with legal bills. He was bitter and angry for many years, and he had EVERY right to be. Time, Religion(and marriage to a good woman) and recognition by generations of young Rockers has made him a bit more satisfied. Recognition in a massive hit movie("Back To The Future") in the 1980s, of course, didn't hurt one bit. He tasted the dregs for many years, though, and it's beyond shameful, the way he was treated. He toured, solo, for many years, by himself and his guitar, to anywhere willing to meet his terms(2 big amps[specified] and a backup band that could play his hits in the original keys), and he could be rough on those musicians. Just ask Keith Richard's chin! But that was the way many people saw Chuck play, for decades. He once made some porn films, in Sweden. It's amazing that he lasted as long as he did. I bet he's in Heaven now, jamming with thousands of gleeful Rock guitar players who preceeded him...RIP, Chuck Berry - God really DOES recognize his own. Fortune passes everywhere.

Another excellent demonstrative video. Johnny B Good has been one of my life time favorites. I used to tell people that Chuck Berry is the true King of rock and roll music and they didn't understand. As far as I know, the song School Days is the first time that this style of music was called rock and roll (1957). "Hail, hail, rock and roll, deliver me from the days of old." Thanx Mr. Davids

@ Kevin Knight ~ My admiration of Chuck’s music knows no bounds, but he was not the ONLY King of Rock and Roll. Little Richard, Fats Domino, Bo Diddley and Jerry Lee Lewis were also pioneers. But one thing is for sure: Chuck Berry WAS AND STILL IS Rock And Roll Guitar. No Chuck? No Stones, no Beatles, no rock and roll guitar. It’s really the elec- tric guitar that finalized the phenomenon of Rock And Roll for the masses.

Incorrectly. I've encountered numerous people who look down their noses at Chuck Berry and, especially, Johnny B. Goode. In actuality, they're thumbing their nose at all the times they've heard it butchered, played in A, and over simplified. Thank you for providing this lesson.

A great collection, indeed. Berry gets some criticism for a lot of his songs sounding alike, and there is of course some truth to that, but it's not the whole truth, as the collection attests. "Havana Moon" shows his breadth, and even a straight rocker like "Rock and Roll Music" throws in a rhumba section.

Also your voice, the colors, the lighting, the editing, your flawless English (although you're apparently not an Englisch native speaker), and of course your insanely tasty, smooth guitar tone are simply unparalleled!

Many years ago, at the Mar e Sol concert down in Lousiana, I had the privilege of listening to Chuck perform. One of the truly greats of Rick. The man is... was a legend. Can't nobody fill this man's shoes. Rest in Peace, dear soul.

It strikes me that I can listen to a lot of rock music and hear bits and say, “that’s a Hendrix thing” or “that’s a little Jimmy Page bit” or BB king, Gilmore, etc, but I’ve never thought “that’s a Chuck Berry thing”. All of his bits are just “that’s a staple of Rock”. His style is so ingrained in the genre.

Paul you should check out jimi Hendrix rendition of killing floor live at Monterey. I'd say that might be one of his hardest songs yet.(Besides a probable hidden solo buried by the weight of the internet)

Hey Paul, have you ever thought of the possibility that maybe Eric Gales, John Mayer, Gary Clark Jr., etc watch your videos and learn from you? That would be so mind blowing to me

John Mayer discovered the Grateful Dead in like 2018. I doubt he knows about Paul yet. In a couple years he’ll probably discover Bob Marley, maybe after that.

Your videos are amazing! It is rare to come across someone who actually puts effort into their content, great job, dude! I am still a beginner guitarist, meaning I intake very little from those videos, however - I still love watching them!

Paul, I’m sorry, I have to be honest, at the risk of getting a little sentimental. You have really blown me away with your ability to invite any amateur guitar player into the control room. But when you also demonstrate consistent innovation with the technique of the videos (all with absurdly clear and crisp audio) has really set you apart as a multi-discipline genius. Please don’t stop getting better and visualising the gold standard.
