one of my favorite Chuck memories was a documentary where Keith Richards was going to jam with Chuck. Chuck “ripped him a new one” over and over because Keith wouldn’t play the riff correctly.

That is one of the most entertaining rock docs I’ve seen. “Hail Hail Rock and Roll”. I’m sure someone will have it on in the near future since he passed. The premise is a bunch of guys get together and put on a show as the all star backing band for Chuck. It shows the rehearsals and the show. The part where Chuck gets in Keef’s business because he isn’t playing a part right in the song “Carol” is pretty cool. I also enjoyed the show part of it. It was really cool to see Chuck tearing it up and to see all the joy on the faces of Keith Richards and Clapton playing with one of their idols. It did make Chuck look like kind of an a-hole at times. He was clearly angry with the world.

RIP Chuck Berry. The original guitar hero.
