Goodbye Mr. Berry ; thank you for the music !




I read with sadness that one of the pioneers of Rock and Roll, Chuck Berry died today at 90 years of age. He was one of the true founders of the music genre Rock and Roll. There are many pioneers, but Chuck Berry was truly one of the guitar greats. His life was rocked by that of many rock musicians, and scandal. He was incarcerated and never won a Grammy outright. 

But like all great musicians, 'he could play a guitar like ringing a bell". The genius of a master is to make the inanely difficult seem to easy to do. 

Chuck, give them the music wherever you are ! 


As a footnote, the piano player reminds me of Animal of Sesame Street ! Hahahaha !
