To a flawed genius. And as somebody once said, if a man among you have no sin upon their hands, let him cast a stone at me for playing in the band.
RIP Chuck.

"Folk Blues" at its finest,... and lots of other labels!

When I left London for Southampton in 1989 I had to "prune" my 45/EP/LPs. Below is all that's left of the Chuck Berry.
I think I'll spend some playing them. Oddball collection even if I say so myself. Rock on up there Chuck and give the neighbours some decent music to listen to for a change.

Flawed genius. Perfect description. Shocking what they found when the police raided his house back in 1990.
I think it was through Chuck Berry and boogie woogie piano I found my way to the blues. RIP Charles Edward Anderson Berry

Rolling Stone, of course has a great look back at 40 years. A good place to start:
