Chuck Berry's Johnny B. Goode is one of the songs that's engraved on the' Golden Record' attached to each of the two Voyager spacecraft that left Earth in 1977. These spacecraft are travelling around 38,000 mph and are now about 14 Billion miles from our home planet, and in interstellar space. Chuck Berry's music will live on in the eternity of space and time. Those of us who ever had the privilege of seeing him perform in person will have that memory for the rest of our lives. R.I.P. Mr. Berry, and thank you for all the great music.
@@richardscally694 Thanks for your note. Chuck was already on another planet, even in the 50's when he first hit the music scene. Now he's out among the stars in the Universe. There will never be another like him. Hail Hail Rock N' Roll! :-)
@@SteveC-p5m I can't help thinking that eons from now in some distant alien civilization an authority figure in their government will figure out how to play Voyager's record. Their teenaged offspring nearby will be ignoring the contents until Chuck comes on with "Johnny B, Goode" and rocks the joint! At that moment the teenager's life has forever been changed and Rock & Roll takes the entire planet's youth by storm! A whirlwind of music and revolt!
I saw him twice, once at The Roxie a club in Los Angeles -- one of my best of many live musical performances I've attended in my life. There's something about the energy of the music of Chuck Berry that just automatically moves my energy to Feel Good. 🎶✨
A real showman.He would beat any present day performer,no question.He was a writer,a poet and a musician.I remember once at one of his shows when he put his hand in his pocket and pulled out a letter from his dad and read it out to his audience.It was brilliant! Miss you man!
@@keithcoeburn2163 yes, Elvis sang and gyrated, fronted the band but his guitar was a prop. Chuck strutted, played lead guitar, wrote the songs and fronted the band.
@sydney5732: Correct! Chuck Berry "King of Rock and Roll"! Elvis Presley "King of Music"! What did Chuck Berry say to a journalist about Elvis Presley: "There will never be anyone greater than Elvis Presley"!
The thunder and lightning we hear from above is no doubt our musicians playing at heavens gate❤❤❤ ❤❤❤❤❤❤ Many dancing 💃 I'm sure my mom and dad are among them kicking up their heels 👠 and enjoying God
Chuck Berry was the first to have Audience participation with the with the song. "My Ding A Ling", when the audience gets involved they feel they have a vested interest.
This man was a school for many musicians...pure talent...living for the music...just legend...l'm bless saw him in Athens l think somewhere in early 90's,few years later passed away... RIP Chuck❤❤❤❤❤❤we miss you
I saw Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis and Bo Diddley all in one incredible show about 16 years ago...they brought the house down...hundreds of people were dancing in the isles and just going crazy. They are all without doubt some of the greatest Rock N' Rollers the world has ever seen. RIP to them all...and thanks for the music.

And Bo Diddley, Elvis, Little Richard, Wanda Jackson, Gene Vincent, yes old Bill Haley, Sonny Burgess, The Killer, Fats, there are loads of them and John knew it. There is no one originator.
Some great footage, thanks for posting. Still listening to rock roll everyday and CB was a great lyricist and guitarist and boy could he gets his legs in some positions 😂. I have an old Chess album Chuck Berry Blues so scratched it can't be played but won't get thrown away.while I'm alive.
In 1979 I was so unafraid to learn to play the guitar. I was inspired by Chuck. I got really good in 6 years. Because of my low self esteem I joined the hs football team. This began my physical injuries that plague me 40 years later. I wish i could drum up the courage to try to play again. 😢
The culture tends to say that we can only do things when we're young and that we can only do things if we're excellent at them. Hey, older people can be creative and enjoy, and without having to be perfect.
My dad played Sax in late 50s early 60s and when Chuck Berry was on tour, he had the promoter supply the backup band My dad only comment was they didn't get paid
Technically rock n roll took elements of blues, discarded others, added other ideas and was / its own thing. The antecedence is real but they are not the same.
@@alexanderSydneyOz Agreed. Chuck Berry played blues and created rock 'n' roll from it -- a new musical form. Berry played blues, and played it when I saw him at the Roxie club in LA. I would have liked him to have played and recorded more blues. 🎶
"The song"You Can't catch Me", is the only time I have ever seen Chuck Berry playing Les Paul. he was always known playing ES 335. except for the first guitar at the beginning of his career if I remember rightly it was ES 175 a Jazz box.
Yes, your right. He recorded all of his original recordings (minus the Les Paul) on that full hollow body single cut with arched top natural blonde finish Gibson ES - 175 model, as the Gibson semi - hollow double cut Gibson ES - 335 model did not debut until 1958, and he purchased his first red one in 1959. Go Chuck Go!
No hay otro. Desgraciadamente el racismo de la época le ensombreció su brillanteź cosmica. Un señor de la música y padre del rock. There is no other. Unfortunately, the racism of the time overshadowed his cosmic brilliance. A man of music and father of rock.
Oh yes he was, not only an entertainer and master guitarist with amazing showmanship, but a piano and saxophone player. That by definition my friend is a musician in true form.
Wow the gift that this people left us ...And how badly we paid them back ...with a new gen that doesnt even nothing about them .sounds the same as what they did to the Christ.

Saw him once when he was 60. He rocked the hall.
The greatest of all time!
This guy for me was the Daddy, the Godfather of rock-n-roll. Without question.
EXACTLY! !00%
We all played Johnny B Goode on guitar when we were in high school in the 1970s!!! Thank you Chuck!!😊😊
We were in the 60s!!!👍Same thing!!

An adroit guitarist. His songs are soulfully melodious.
Love this Man, Chuck Berry, You were way ahead of your time. God Bless You. Miss your Music.
No, that was his time. Nearly all of the great rock and roll was gone by about the mid 70s.
How fitting Chuck Berry’s “Johnny Be Good” now imprinted on the Voyager ll’s golden record will live beyond the human race!
This is the king of rock and roll. Don't ever forget that

Das ist der König des Rock'n'Roll, ohne ihn habe es nicht die Rolling Stones mit ihrer Musik.
Wao definitivamente este cantante de Rock era, sensacional y un fuera de serie. Merece el título de ese género musical EI REY 👑.

Best lyrics in rock and roll every song!!!
Yes, he was a storyteller. Simple stories, but real life. I love his "Memphis", which Johnny Rivers sang.
Escuchar a Chuck Berry cada vez la misma cancion es una novedad infinita. Nunca el oido se satisface de su creatividad interminable.
Well said.
He and Little Richard were great rock'n rollers.

I'm an Elvis fan, but I always thought that Chuck Berry should be the king of rock-n-roll and I'm a white woman !!! 🤟☺️💚🌸
Yeah, I think Chuck had a string of white female "fans".
True that is
We agree to your perception Mam. Chuck Berry must be The King of Rock-N-Roll. ❤❤❤

John Lennon said that if you wanted to call rock and roll by another name you could call it Chuck Berry.
He was rigth.
I say if you want to call a pervert another name it’s chuck berry.
@clownbaby7985 would you mind clarifying that accusation

Love, Honor and Respect to Chuck Berry one of the greatest Black Musican in Black Music History.

Tell why is Elvis is the king of rock&roll??? He didn't write any of his own music he played everybody's else's music and made it famous.
In my opinion Elvis had a greater catologue of songs. Both are iconic in their own way.
he dont need to he is king . john lennen said before elvis there was nothing

@@maximumkolot3014 no Elvis stole all his damn music from black artists and songwriters

There is only a handful of guitarists that changed the rules of the game. CB without a doubt one of them.
