I played piano for Chuck one night in Raleigh NC back in the late 80s..he hit on my wife..and she told him she was married to his piano player..he smiled and told her "He's Good!
😄
Гордись за твоей женой преударял сам Чак😊
Good one!
One of the founding fathers of Rock and Roll. Nobody like him before or since.
THE real King of Rock and Roll.
Angus Young admitted Chuck Berry was his primary influence. Angus' duck walk is the same as Chuck Berry in the 1970s.
yes yes ❤❤❤❤❤RAa

Married a 13 year old child cousin. Incest, the game the whole family can play.
Doesn't the audience realize they are in the presence of a founder of rock and roll? A legend.
rock royalty
Nah, nobody invented rock. And Rock is not entirely R&B. It's a blending of styles that really gave it its' own genre. I hear lots of blues and so&so is the grandmother, godfather, etc. I've heard these other blues songs and most are not what I would call rock & roll. Not saying Chuck isn't rock, but he didn't invent it. By the time Bill Hailey (late 40s) and Elvis early /mid 50s came along, they were introducing elements that didn't exist in blues music (namely Country, Swing, and Pop of the day).
They didn’t realise
Without chuck berry and little Richard there is no such thing as rock and roll music to build on
Dont forget Marty McFly. Without him there is no Chuck Berry
Don't forget Jimmy Reed and Fats Domino..🎸🥁🎸🥃😎👌
Let's not forget Bo Didley.
I don't think Rock & Roll was entirely identical to R&B, as there's a split between the two, and why not all rock songs charted on R&B, and visa-versa. It happened around 1955 when Elvis/Bill Hailey introduced country music elements mixed with Blues. Rufus Thomas was right about that. Elvis recorded rock & roll before Chuck did. Elvis had more hits on the R&B charts than Chuck. I also don't think chuck's voice is all that great, but he did have songwriting & guitar playing going for him. Elvis didn't write, but his interpretation of music was lightyears beyond them all.
Most guitar players look at their instrument but Chuck looks at the audience even while playing one of the most epic intros in history!
Maybe he should have... Just to have it in tune here and there. I mean nobody wants it perfect, but neither we want a Sonic Youth's version
He was just scoping out the women, creepy Chuck had his backstage and bathroom fun...
I'm so glad you pointed that out my friend 👍 that just makes him even more special , want this playing at my Funeral get it bouncing
But the bass player was lackluster. You would think that the 70's brought some bass game. But i don't know the Chuck Berry story.
@@MarkWoodChannel backstage fun ? well , he wont have been the only one ..enough said
I'm almost 80 and remember when he was young. He changed the sound, the beat, the timbre and the subject matter of rock n roll. He also created the first youth groupie song ('Sweet Little Sixteen'), and the very first youth protest song ('School Daze'). After him, every rock and blues guitar player had to play his chops in one way or another. He was a genius and the Jimi Hendrix of his day. RIP my Brother.
Ты прав дедуля мне 48 и я в России а всеравно его слушаю
he told stories rather than sang songs
I'm old now, but I remember the first time I heard a Chuck Berry song,I jumped off the couch . Things were never the same! Rock and Roll forever.
I love that music!
😊

I am the same age as you. I remember it was 1958 when I first heard "Rock and Roll Music" on the radio. My taste in music was changed forever.
I agree hes d father of rock n roll,keep on rockin n rollin in heaven chuck
This would have been a great era to see him live.
Up until about 20 years ago you could see him every Monday night at Blueberry Hill in University City (St Louis).
Nope..saw him in 74 at the rainbow theatre in London..He was poor, didn't really care and in spite of encouragement he insisted on playing very quietly..After 35 mins he was gone with no encore.. Apparently it was the same across the whole tour.
I was there and damn right it was.
@@davidglow3you just got him on a bad night. I was at a couple of his concerts at that time, one he opened for The James Gang, we wouldn’t let him leave the stage. James Gang had to play a tune with him before he could exit.
That man supplied the soundtrack to my youth and forwards. Thank you for the music, Mr. Berry. ❤️
Met him at Six Flags in 1976. This was behind the fence as I was an employee. He was nice to me. I remember his smile and his fingers. Very cool dude he was.
God, I miss those sounds. What good music we had. Never again in my lifetime.
Amazing artist ! The rhtym is powerful !
Chuck Berry, Little Richard, and some guy named Elvis. Rock and Roll folks. The hall of fame. With Chuck and little Richard leading the Way!!! And Fats Donimo. God Bless all of them and more. LEGENDS!!!!!❤
Regarding that 'some guy' you mention. He is responsible for popularizing rock & roll more than any other artist or music act to this day. He de-segregated our music.... after him, minority artists began charting mainstream, tv, radio, airplay, movies etc. It became acceptable, because elvis fought media and concert venues for the right of expression.
I've hear Little Richard's early music and it don't sound like rock & roll to me (late 40s early 50s). Elvis recorded rock & roll before chuck berry did, know that? By 1955, all these you mentioned were sounding like rock, it all converged that year, and that is why Billboard began the rock era in 55, with a song and artist you forgot to mention......................Bill Hailey. Rock Around The Clock was THE rock anthem. Bill & Elvis did something the R&B artists did not do, they blended Country Music with blues and came up with something new. Not recycled blues.
I used to see him at the Country Club outside of L A and he let everybody jump on stage and dance and he played whatever songs people shouted out.
I am 71 and must have heard a hundred bands play Johny B. Goode. But none played it like Berry when I heard him on Graffiti Night in Modesto, California in 1990 or something like that.
Doubtlessly the MOST famous R&R introduction, Jonny.B.Goode🎸
most famous? you mean more so than Elvis? Don't forget, Elvis is the #1 selling artist of all time still to this day, most chart activity, Airplay, chart position, movies, record breaking attendance, largest worldwide concert, just to name a few, there's so much more.
Go Berry Go Forever !!! 😎🎸💜
Best of the Best! Absolutely the King of Rock & Roll!!!!!!
As my brother put it, "If it ain't Chuck Berry it ain't Rock and Roll."
Still fun to watch.
Those guys in the past, they weren't ready for this stuff yet. But us kids, we loved it.
I don’t care what anybody say, he was the coolest rockstar that ever lived. EVER!!! I said.😊😮😊
Ty,Midnight Special, for putting on one of the best rock and roll guitar 🎸 players ever. You have amazing taste 🎉🎉
love chuck berry loved how he sang and played the guitar
Chuck is almost the best Rock'n Roller ever....!!! And he will in my heart forever......!!!! Absolute great music.....!!!
Almost? He IS THE REAL KING OF RnR. Like John Lennon said, look up the definition of RnR, you will see a picture of Chuck Berry.
@@kbrewski1So why is he wasting his time on a two bit show like the Midnight Special. I tell you why because his act is too small to fill out arenas.
he is the king
the king of rock'n roll guitar
I saw Chuck Berry perform live in person 5 times in a small basement bar in St Louis, named the Duck Room at Blueberry Hill. Amazing. I was at his 80th birthday concert celebration. I was also one of the few who got to attend his Memorial Service at the Pageant down the street from his home base venue, Blueberry Hill. What a legend and performer!
I bet that was awesome and unforgettable. What a great man!
Lived in STL nearly my entire life and I do regret never seeing him at Blueberry Hill.
@@randytrashcan
Damn, that's unfortunate. He played there once a month for years. Toward his later years, people were flying in from Europe just to see him live, and he was selling out his monthly shows very quickly.
Chuck Berry a true legend
A Legend
has anybody on earth ever felt more comfortable with a guitar in their hands?
Chuck Berry is show!!!
I went to his Memorial Funeral Service. He was lying in his coffin, dressed to the 9s in an all white suit, a ship Captains cap, and his guitar in the coffin!!
pure class
THE FATHER!!
THE FATHER!!
THE FATHER!!!
i love the way chuck berry plays the guitar and sing im learning how he plays the guitar one awesome guitar player and singer ilearning how he plays the guitar rest in peace always chuck berry
The real king of Rock and Roll
Simply wow hey it's Chuck Berry !.
KING OF R R
ASTONISHING to say the least....
I'm just glad his cousin Marvin called him that fateful night.
Genius my favourite artist ever
Tremendous
Just wonderful!
I am a big fan of Chuck and I listen to this song often. His best song. I believe he is the best Guitar player there has ever been.
ESPECTACULAR, GRANDE CHUCK BERRY.
What a truly legendary performer and showman!
Those guys were ready for this and their kids are loving it too!
Great song!
Really wish I could have sat in on one of these Midnight Special shows like this one. I was too young at the time. I was a whopping 2 1/2 years old when this episode aired. LOL.
Absolutely speachless
Fantastic
Real rock and roll, southern rock and roll. A rock hero
Chuck be Berry Berry good tonight.😲
Chuck Berry the best of the best!!!!
True rock and roll, badass dude
Never be another Chuck Berry.😊😊😊
Angus Young so obviously admired Chuck Berry! fantastic!
How about that? One minute, Johnny Winter was performing that very song one night on The Midnight Special, then Chuck himself shows up!
I can't believe this guy ripped his whole act off from Marty McFly!
That was Calvin Kline !
😅🤣😂
I cant believe it isnt true that every time traveller isnt trying to get back to see the first time its being played.
The best!!
Thank god, no Yoko to scream
What does Yoko have to do with Chuck Berry?
kbrewski1 There's footage of John Lennon and Chuck Berry doing this song together and Yoko is on stage too. Thankfully her microphone seems to be switched off.
@paulcormican3733
Oh, the Toronto concert? You're really placing high expectations on the reader to know that connection right off the bat.....
@@kbrewski1 No it was a tv studio. Not a concert. Just looked up the performance was in 1972 on the Mike Douglas Show.
@@kbrewski1 Shut up.
When somebody say what's the best, chuck make it nice & easy...
Chuck is the best Rock'n Roller ever!!!!!! He and his amazing songs at 100 phone!!!...... and you have no problems any more!!!!!!
Just so good, loved to have seen him live
Najbolji pevac ujedno i najgadniji😂😂😂
Why has it taken me so long to fall in love with him...l love his facial expressions so much...
Legend.
He and his daughter were 1992 in Zürich for a gig and I was there too.
The King of rock 'n'roll
the greatest ever R & R artist. All bow before his brilliance.
I'll pass, albeit I do like him, but he is a greatest hits artist for me, as I don't like all the other stuff most have never hear of. Elvis out sold every other solo artist ever, had most chart activity, and did something the blues artists did not do, combined Country Music with R&B, he (and the GREAT Bill Hailey) were the first to do this in the mid 50s. Elvis actually recorded a rock song before Chuck.
King of R& Really ✝️
SHOW MAN, WOW!!!!!
Chuck Berry 👍👉💓💓💓
Lyrics:
Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could play a guitar just like a-ringin' a bell
Go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Johnny B. Goode
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
Oh, the engineers would see him sitting in the shade
Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made
The people passing by they would stop and say
"Oh my what that little country boy could play"
Go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Johnny B. Goode
His mother told him "someday you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old band
Many people coming from miles around
To hear you play your music when the sun go down
Maybe someday your name will be in lights
Saying "Johnny B. Goode tonight"
Go, go
Go Johnny, go
Go, go, go Johnny, go
Go, go, go Johnny, go
Go, go, go Johnny, go
Go
Johnny B. Goode
He is true King of Rock and Roll. May Chuck Berry forever rest in peace, and rock out in Heaven.
Bravo the réal king if rock’´ roll !

The King of the Blues, Willie Dixon, played bass for Chuck on the original recording of this hit!
They make em like old Chuck anymore that's real music and talent
Somewhere a young Marty Mc Fly is watching this before he goes Back lol
Sheer genius.
Chuck, große Klasse - unvergesslich
