    @@PauloPereira-jj4jv music is an artform, a basic theory not anything fundamentally set in stone. It's a matter of perspective, taking also in considerations the times chuck berry lived which did not favor black or latinos at the time so critics and tv moguls to decide on these terms for the public to absorb, consume and buy, and decide on like who is who in the music world. I personally prefer the guitar style and lyric creativism of chuck berry over elvis any day. And like many others consider him the king of rock and roll, and others believe it is little richard which is considered "the originator" and architect of rock and roll. The media has a way to brainwash so I read history to absolve myself from these ideas or norms serve to the public again to absorb consume and buy techniques.

I am so disappointed that Chuck Berry never got the credit he deserved. We are constantly learning and today I learned who the true King of Rock and Roll is.

I asked him what his song list for that show, so that we didn't do any of them and clash. He said " you just go right on ahead, you play whatever you like, I just love to hear other peoples versions of my songs". Such a humble response !

    The King of Rock n Roll? You know Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard both proclaimed themselves as the King of Rock n Roll. Chuck Berry never did, Elvis never did, in fact he hated to be called that. I suppose if you are a fan of one or the other then that one is the King, but like a good rock n roll fan, you like them all and you never use the term King of Rock n Roll for any specific one. They were all great in their own way.

    Many many musicians were inspired by Chuck Berry. and some of them are John Lennon, Keith Richards, and Noddy Holder from SLADE, Eric Clapton, and Angus Young from AC/DC, Little Richard, and oh so many more. and I apologize to them for not listing them.

    @@WhatsCookingTime Yes Angus Young was inspired by Chuck Berry. he even said so in an interview and he even does the duck walks on stage. Chuck Berry was pretty active on stage also that's the thing about Chuck Berry. he was more than a singer and musician he was an entertainer. Chuck Berry should have gotten the King of Rock and Roll moniker but it went to Elvis Presley. but Chuck Berry will be forever known as the Godfather of Rock and Roll.

Thankfully we heard the guitar chords of "Maybelline" and we all just fell into sync for the next 45 minutes as pure bliss in a musical heaven on stage in front of 5,000 people. What he said to me at the end as he was leaving the venue was worth its weight in gold "You did good, gotta go kid."

I still remember the sweat dripping down his face yet he stopped walking to ask how I was doing and if he had performed well. I was spellbound. The man was beyond awesome. It was an incredible 10 seconds.

To me hearing some artists for the first time was stunning or perhaps revolutionary when I hadn't heard anything like them. It was like that when I heard Hendrix and Queen for the first time. I didn't know what to make of them, but then I became big fans of them. I suspect it was the same with Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley. Btw, I got a chance to see Bo live about a year or two before he died.

The Beatles sang some of these early songs because of the inspiration they got from them. They reintroduced early rock. The original "big Beat" will always be the basis of real rock and roll. I'm glad to have lived it from its beginning. Wish it were still here today to some extent, in its original form. Long live rock and roll as the song goes.
