Chuck Berry RIP October 18, 1926 – March 18, 2017
Charles Edward Anderson “Chuck” Berry (October 18, 1926 – March 18, 2017)
We all had to thank !
Chuck Berry, who with his indelible guitar licks, brash self-confidence
and memorable songs about cars, girls and wild dance parties did as much
as anyone to define rock ’n’ roll’s potential and attitude in its early
years, died on Saturday. He was 90
Berry’s incredible success is due to his ability to articulate the
concerns and attitudes of his audience in his music. At the height of
his success, Berry was a 30-year-old black man singing to a mostly
white, teenage audience. Dubbed the “Eternal Teenager,” Chuck Berry’s
knowledge of the pop market made it possible for him to break color
barriers and play to an integrated audience.
In the 1960s and 1970s, Berry’s music was the inspiration for such groups as the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.
