Chuck Berry passes away at the age of 90 :(

[Eywadude]

One of the truly great legends has died. I knew this day would come, I just wish it hadn't happened before he could see the release of his last album later this year.

A true talent and a ground breaker...every guitar who came later took something from Chuck. I know I did ! Happy trails Mr Berry.

Another artist where you wish you only had to listen to their music and NOT know about how much of a creep they were. Berry was arrested for having sex with a 14 year old girl. He also secretly videotaped hundreds of women using toilets in a bathroom.

Pretty close, we still have Fats Domino, Little Richard, and a few others but Chuck was special.

As for Chuck gettin' with a fourteen year old, BFD. Jerry Lee Lewis married the 13 year old daughter of his cousin.

I'm going to play some Chuck today in memoriam.

My wife and I had a chance to visit Blueberry Hill on Delmar in St. Louis 2 years ago...had a great lunch and enjoyed all of the music and memorabilia ...RIP

I watched his documentary a while back and Learned a lot I didn't know. He's certainly one of the great pioneers in Rock N Roll and maybe deserves the "Hardest working man in show business" even more than James Brown. We've lost an icon. I wish I had more of his music to spin than I do. I don't have much because all the ones I seem to come across are compilations of questionable quality and pedigree.

RIP Chuck Berry!
