“Beautiful in every way and sounds fantastic! My only
minor issue is that the crackles on 'Come On' have been
eliminated and 'fixed'. I've listened to that album so
much I got used to hearing and accepting the 'flaw'. This
is The Bible to Rock 'n' Roll purists and is a true, lasting
example of it. HAIL, HAIL, ROCK 'N' ROLL.”

A seminal figure in the evolution of rock 'n' roll,
Chuck Berry's influence as songwriter and guitarist
is incalculable. His cogent songs captured
adolescent life, yet the artist was 30 years old when
he commenced recording. In 1955, during a chance
visit to Chicago, Berry met bluesman Muddy Waters,
who advised the young singer to approach the
Chess label. Berry's demo of 'Ida May', was
sufficient to win a recording contract and the
composition, retitled 'Maybellene', duly became his
debut single. Berry enjoyed further hits with 'Thirty
Days' and 'No Money Down', but it was his third
recording session that proved even more
productive, producing a stream of classics, 'Roll
Over Beethoven', 'Too Much Monkey Business' and
'Brown-Eyed Handsome Man'. The artist's
subsequent releases read like a lexicon of pop
history - 'School Days', 'Rock And Roll Music' (all
1957), 'Sweet Little Sixteen', 'Reelin' And Rockin',
'Johnny B. Goode' (1958), 'Back In The USA', 'Let It
Rock' (1960) and 'Bye Bye Johnny' (1960) are but a
handful of the peerless songs written and recorded
during this prolific period. Berry was inducted into
the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 1986. His stature
as an essential figure in the evolution of popular
music cannot be underestimated.
