Imagine how old he’d get if he’d taken better care of himself!

And he owes it all to Marty McFly:

"Chuck. Chuck. It's Marvin - your cousin, Marvin BERRY. You know that new sound you're looking for? Well, listen to this."

I think he is infinitely more deserving of a peace prize than the pretender who got one.

Don’t know wether to love him or hate as I was a diehard C&W fan (Cowboy Music we called it) and music was rapidly changing away from C&W. But then there was Fats Domino and Blueberry Hill that got played a lot at the soda fountain...

He performs here locally in St. Louis once a month and I keep saying I want to go see him. I had better get off my butt and get a ticket. Neither of us is getting any younger. :)

>> He’s also been to jail three times - for joyriding as a young man, after a controversial prostitution trial which many felt was racially biased, and in 1979 for tax evasion.

My hero! Happy b’day, Chuck!

I saw him about a year ago; I’m glad I was finally able to cross off seeing a Chuck Berry concert from my bucket list.

Compare Chuck to some bands today. U2 has 200 semis for a show and then has the nerve to lecture you on saving the environment. Chuck just shows up at the gig, asks for a decent amp set up and a local band to back him.

Uhh ... that's only 2. They forgot about him filming women using the toilet in his bathroom. (He had a "toilet cam".)

Nice guy.

After the Air force, wanted to resume playing again part-time but country was the main option around town believe it or not in upstate NY. Got myself invited to play one or two songs at different places and the one most requested of me was "Jonny Be Goode" which lead me to play for several groups on weekends for 30 years.

Thanks, Chuck and Happy Birthday.
