Reacting To CHUCK BERRY Johnny B. Goode (1958) THE WOLF HUNTERZ REACTIONS

[@dale3219]

Sorry for most people but Chuck Berry is the KING of Rock n Roll.

[@saulocruz1]

i agree tota lly

[@RobertRitter-l9z]

Agreed

[@brianmckenzie4890]

this is pretty much the birth of rocknroll

[@CarleenMorris-f3p]

I agree .❤

[@jvnbrk]

A lot of folks recognize Elvis as the King of Rock..and I love Elvis myself so this is no shade thrown...but this man Chuck Berry is the true owner of that title. Imagine all the rock music that stemmed from this

[@Red22762]

I agree with your every word!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@leescarpelli3515]

Chuck berry is the greatest guitarist off all time. Sorry jimi

[@GabrielFoshee.]

@@leescarpelli3515Chuck berry is amazing. Im a huge fan of him, i absolutely love him and his music. Hes the best rock musician to live. However, Jimi hendrix was the best guitarist. He played a solo with his teeth, and behind his head while performing “hey joe”… who else did that… Even look up greatest guitarists who ever lived, jimi is first on the list💁🏽

[@maxammerman4968]

Yes, Elvis is the king of Rock n Roll. Chuck Berry is the father of Rock n Roll.

[@Red22762]

Just think..... that old guy that's a door greeter at Walmart was rocking and rolling to this kind of music as a young teen. Mad respect for the musicians of the former generations.

Chuck Berry - Johnny B. Goode. "Number One song" of all time!👍💯

[@otisroseboro5613]

Fact's

[@michelelaraia7358]

Saw him in my hometown in 2005,along with son and daughter. Trani, Southern Italy. On KZbin too!

[@sheryldalton8965]

My older sister saw him play in the late 50's. Right before he went on stage he threw his cigarette down & stepped on it. She picked it up & carried it in her wallet for years haha.

[@mattjohn4731]

Haha I don't doubt it. Rock was new, it must have felt like Chuck was The Future🎸💥

[@firedoc5]

A true pioneer of Rock & Roll. He did things no one had ever thought of doing. Hail, Hail Rock & Roll!

[@steelers6titles]

Deliver me from the days of old.

[@supasoulproductions]

Along with his legendary songwriting, Chuck Berry was famous for the 'duckwalk', but he got it from T-bone Walker. He also got a lot of his guitar inspiration (not from Marty McFly, but) from Sister Rosetta Tharpe, the awesome Gospel artist.

[@JohnHazelwood58]

Oh yeah! They need to check out Sister Rosetta Tharpe! For example: "Up Above My Head" ... ♥

[@thomastimlin1724]

Many moves were borrowed from various sources...the Nicholas Brothers dancing team comes to mind....where they jump and land on the stage floor sliding for example, or Cab Calloway spinning around...even those guys probably borrowed these from someone lol. I borrowed my moves from when I fell on my a** after mom waxed the kitchen floor😂

[@adriantrusca1245]

The way Chuck pissed on whores was legendary too.

[@steelers6titles]

Rock's greatest songwriter. Chuck was a hairdresser from St. Louis with no real background in rhythm and blues. He arrived at Chess in Chicago with a song about a girl and a car race, based on the old "Ida Red". It was "Maybelline". The rest is rock history.

[@marvingoodman7381]

Kids, I was there when Rock and Roll was born and IT'S SO GOOD TO KNOW THAT YOU ARE PAYING TRIBUTE TO THE FATHERS OF ROCK AND ROLL. You MIGHT even learn some licks that the artists came up with... Rock on....

[@Mr.56Goldtop]

If you are a pop or rock guitar player, THIS is your genesis, Chuck Berry.

[@blackcats179]

Greatest story teller of all time. God father of rockin roll.

[@akasetkya6253]

Chuck Berry the greatest influence on modern day guitars players, genuine guitar god.

[@musik102]

In the UK, there was a time in the first half of the 1960s, when it seemed that this song was part of every rock bands repertoire

[@philippankhurst6680]

Quite right ! Going out at the week-end in 1961-6, over time you would hear the entire Berry song book...

[@russallert]

The piano player was Johnnie Johnson, who played on all of Chuck's big hits, and his piano style complemented Chuck's guitar playing. Chuck actually took over Johnnie's R&B band, which included horns, so Chuck wrote most of his songs in B flat and E flat (keys more suitable for horns and piano) than in the standard A and E keys for guitar.

[@thomastimlin1724]

Super correct! Chuck was one of the few rock and roll musicians who played in flat keys. Most bands can not even play in "flat keys" on guitars....if they ever had to backup Chuck Berry they were in deep do-do with him if they couldn't play in Bb lol.

[@philippankhurst6680]

@@thomastimlin1724 Great to see due credit to Johnnie J, but the piano player on Johhny B Goode was Lafayette Leake...

[@gailkemp2757]

I was born in 1950 and I never get tired of this music. Jim.

[@michaellawliss3049]

AMAZING SONG...LOVE THE VIBE! YOU BOTH ROCK!! ❤️

[@thedealer777]

In 1977, NASA launched two spacecraft - Voyager 1 and 2 - to explore Jupiter, Saturn and FAR, FAR BEYOND. Each carried a 12-inch gold plated record that contained music, sounds and images picked to represent the great diversity of life on Earth. The idea was maybe one day extraterrestrial life far away would stumble on the records and learn something from us. Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode'" was embedded with the likes of: Beethoven's; Fifth Symphony; Stravinsky's' Rite of Spring; and Bach's, Brandenburg Concerto No. 2. No other rocker made the cut (not the Beatles, not Elvis, not the Stones, not Hendrix, Joplin, or Morrison). This song is literally "far out" among the stars. Now that's immortality. Who knows, maybe a billion years from now some alien being will be tapping their tentacle to Johnny B. Goode.

[@jennymagidson1925]

Amazing

[@tomaroni6670]

Such a classic, I grew up on this because my mom was born in 1948 so she grew up in the 50’s with the classic rock n roll and raised me on it, she was 36 when she had me after having my two sisters so I was her miracle boy

[@chloehall4270]

I think this song performed by Chuck Berry is on the gold record attached to The Voyager craft that has left our solar system and is traveling around the galaxy. Go Johnny B Goode!!!

[@teddtarr]

It'll take ~ 300 years to reach the solar system's Oort Cloud, & ~ 30,000 years to clear it. THEN, it will be completely out of the solar system. And, that's w/ it traveling ~ 1 million miles a day.

the step he makes is the one that Angus from AC DC took as his own, in honor of Berry...

[@cathybrookeburt2616]

This was the music of the 50's & the TV show 'Happy days' with Fonzie. That era's music has its own sound. You two are fun to watch,

[@TheCornishCockney]

Tony Iommi once in an interview was referred to as the riff master,he quickly interrupted to say “no,that would be Chuck Berry”

[@jgsheehan8810]

Johnny B Goode - the song that launched 1000 careers; the duck walk is what Angus Young (AC/DC) does.

[@827dusty]

This song has been covered by every Rock Band that was ever formed in a garage, or played in 30,000 seat stadiums over the last 65 years. Remember, Elvis, Chuck Barry, Buddy Holly, Little Richard and many more, started this thing called Rock'n'roll, way back in 1955. These are the pioneers of this music. They inspired The Stones, Beatles, and all of the American artists of tthe 1960s.

[@christinelegate8137]

You Guys are so much fun to watch. You’re doing great learning about the amazing history of music and the unbelievably talented artists that brought it forward. Unfortunately,there was such a massive amount of talent and creativity from these artists of all genres, that today’s music pales in comparison. Still waiting for the next Elvis, Michael J , Chuck , Jerry Lee, and many more.

[@billwilson2025]

They call the godfather of rock 'n roll for a reason

[@andrewbayada2475]

Bands have been covering this song forever! From Slade to Judas Priest! Classic example of Rock & Roll in it's purest form.

[@jtoad99]

There would be no metal. There would be no Rock N Roll without Chuck Berry! Bob Seger wrote a song: Rock n Roll never forgets. The one line: All of Chuck's Children are out there playing his licks get into your kicks.

[@Itelkner]

How did Chuck come up with the duck walk? He used to make his elder relatives laugh by doing it under the table when family would get together.

[@matthewdrake4385]

Good question. The answer is the fact that his suits would get wrinkled on the way to his gigs. So he would do the duck walk to kind of get the wrinkles out. He did it at one show, the crowd loved it and it became a trademark.

[@MrTech226]

In 2017 at the age of 90 before his death, Chuck Berry was still touring. Angus, guitarist for AC/DC and others such as Rolling Stones were influenced by Chuck Berry. Chuck Berry had another song called My Ding-a-ling. Funny song especially, he did this song live with the audience participation.

[@zynjams]

my ding a ling was Chuck Berrys only number 1

Yeah, Chuck reworked Dave Bartholomew's old "party" record. The live version in London was his only Number One.

Nice hit ! Try out some ",Jerry Lee Lewis" Great Balls of fire live.Thank you two for doing this one, and have a great day

[@denniseldridge2936]

Thank you for reviewing this particular song. I know you will have heard it a million times, so this is a of course more of a review. This is pretty much considered the ultimate ancestor of almost all rock & roll as we know it today. This applies to a number of Berry's songs, and there are a lot of rock songs written by white rockers of the 60s which are pretty much rewrites of them. In fact Berry sued the Beach Boys over one of their early hits. It's worth checking out some of the subsequent covers of this song: Johnny Winter: Fast and Furious. Gawd knows what he was on, but it is insanely fast and awesome. Hendrix: It's Hendrix. Nuff said. Living Colour: If you can find it, this is one of the most mind-bending covers I've ever heard.

After Elvis Presley died on August 16, 1977, the African American newspaper, the Chicago Defender explained that: “When Elvis Presley breathed his last breath and the press hailed him as the ‘King of Rock,’ Ol’ Man River cried out, ‘Naw he ain’t! My friend Chuck Berry is the King of Rock. Presley was merely a Prince who profited from the royal talent of a sovereign ruler vested with tremendous creativity. Had Berry been white, he could have rightly taken [Presley’s] throne and worn his crown well.’”
