Chuck Berry, of course: "Maybelline", "No Particular Place to Go", "No Money Down." Brian Wilson once said that the original goal of his music was to combine Four Freshmen vocals with Chuck Berry's guitar.

He got 'er done. I can't hear Surfin' U.S.A. from the Beach Boys without mentally hearing Chuck Berry knock out Sweet Little Sixteen. And the two segue together very neatly.

And, one more - "Bucket T" that Jan & Dean and, I think, Ronnie and the Daytonas also released.

It contains one of the great line in the history of rock:

"All the girls wanna ride with me
But there's only one seat in my Bucket T."

A little irony from the dark ages.

You've done a great job IMHO and I've checked back 3 or 4 times just to take that time trip you so graciously wrote up.

Saw Cream on their Goodbye Tour in 68, I think. And saw Jefferson Airplane in 69 at the old Iowa Fieldhouse in Iowa City. Jez, were they ever LOUD !

Thanks, bud.

RIP Jan. After an injury like his, victory is in the small things. Watched a friend of mine going through this (gunshot wound), read a lot about it. Any comeback is a victory...

d.o.l.

He was a thoroughly good person.

And he left a happy legacy. Both the music he gave us, and the spirt it kindled live on!
