"Promised Land" was another great Chuck Berry song that wasn't mentioned here. There are so many. The seminal rock and roll performer. I last saw him perform in the late 90s at the Greek Theater in LA; unfortunately he did mail in the performance that night. But I also saw him in the sixties giving it his all, and what a memorable time it was. You could see that Pierre did truly love the Madamoiselle bump.

BTW, this is an old article. Cub Koda passed away a couple of years ago.

Send More Chuck Berry!

That was an SNL skit, wasn't it?

I always wanted to see Chuck Berry. In 1989, my wife got me tickets to see him. He showed up late & was drunk. His guitar was out of tune and he forgot his own lyrics. Very disappointing.

Thank you. I knew that didn't look quite right. At least I was only three letters off.

Interestingly, I googled Taichovski (to check the spelling) and I got a composer. Most of the results were in some foreign language, though, so it was hard to be sure. I thought maybe it was an alternate spelling or something. I tried!

When it comes to classical, I am rather partial to Bach. I really hate Tchaikovsky, I really do (which is probably why I can't spell it). %-)
