Dave the greatest rockstar in history.

We need more rockabilly in our lives it never dies

this guy needs greater recognition,

no one will ever do this song as good as Dave Edmunds as he did on that LP

The most underrated Welsh artist...I've a fan for decades!

Good Lawd Have Mercy!!!!! Never heard this version. What A Tune.

A late Berry song. Dave rocked it up and hit it out of the park. First time I heard it I was stunned.

Dave ROCKS. He helps to keep great tunes like this sounding FINE! Thanks, Dave

Love the way she never misses a beat!! Chuck Berry classic and a classic interpretation by Dave Edmunds - wonderful!

Chuck, RIP Good Buddy, we have to thank you for this masterpiece, but Dave what a superb renditioning.

Just about the best rock n roller !

Dave never gets the recognition he deserves. A lot of people don't realise he produced the stray cats and shakin stevens Absolute ledgend, The race is on with the stray cats is one of the best rockabilly tunes ever,

I have a Best of Dave Edmunds CD that has twenty tracks. Everyone one of them charted, and several were top ten or twenty. That’s hardly a record of an artist struggling to be recognised. Dave has received plenty of success, especially from the people that matter. He had his first hit fifty three years ago, nobody goes on forever.

Edmunds knows rockabilly

Very true to Chucks original, even the guitar break..love it.

talk about energy and joy ! this music personifies it !

A great song from Chuck...What lyrics used to be all about, tell a story & make it rock.

A hard song to sing, dave nailed it

Excellent music I love it

Magic! Great clip, thankyou! :) Dave has long been a fav.

no one rocks like Dave. As well I really like this footage it actually looks like the fifties

@Dave Edmunds I am the world's biggest Dave Edmonds fan. I saw him live several time. I am a musician by trade and I owe this man everything. He is my biggest influence as a guitar player and as a producer. If this is really Dave Edmonds himself All I can say is thank you sir. You have inspired me my entire life. No other musician has had the type of in Impact on me as you. You might say you are my Chuck Berry. Thank you for your incredible contribution to music as well as my life. We actually shook hands once out of gig in Toronto Canada when you were doing the rock and roll review tour With Dion and Graham Parker. if this is really Dave himself then thank you for responding to me.

Man, iconic! No one covers Chuck Berry half as good as Dave!

Dave Edmunds - man is a total legend - this version is so in the pocket, wide and loose, and def better than Berry’s. Just great!

Contrary to popular belief or opinion, Dave E's group were 'The Raiders'. They played the at the Gaumont Cinema & the Victoria Ballroom. Circa 1962 all Dave E & the Raiders followers forecast great things for this multi-talented & all round 'Mr Nice Guy'. Dave E now acknowledged as one of the best ever.

A friend of mine told me how much he loves this song...i said HEY, ME TO BROTHER, ...!!!! and he played the elvis version, not knowing this one, and i said NO, NO, NO, BRO, LET ME SHOW YOU THIS PROPER ONE..., OH YEA... BEST VERSION...👇 THANK YOU CHUCK BERRY, GOD REST YOUR ROCKIN SOUL...🙏💙

It sounds like a child is tapping along to the music on this record. Quite amazing given everything else on it is so good.

A great version of a MOVING story

Further proof that Chuck Berry was rock'n'roll's greatest lyricist and songwriter.

Absolutely! Chuck gets credit for a lot of things, but his lyrics were the most advanced for anybody back in the 50s. He often told complete stories while most lyricists were struggling to make a rhyme. Promised Land is a read between the lines account of the civil rights movement back in the early 60s.

A very creditable version by Dave Edmunds

The True 👑 of rock n roll😉

“Dance ballerina girl, go go go!"

Just had a few beers takes me back to 1960s brilliant many thanks

Great music from Dave

Top song 👍

Dave Edmunds takes Chuck Berry' tunes to another level

Love it!

Meatloaf did a phenomenal job on this song on SNL decades ago. Like this one too. Dancers add a lot.

Great version!!!!That gal in the polka dot dress never misses a beat.Had to watch it a few times.There was a reason girls wore crinolines and full skirts in the '50's-all she needed was bobby sox and saddle oxfords.

Good cover ❤❤❤

Love the rock and roll by the couples

Brilliant

incredibly wonderful ... the Sweet Lass with black top/grey skirt has hypnotized me --- help, what is the antidote ???!!!

Edmunds just gets it

Not too shabby!

Great song , great version, nearly saw that girls knickers but her partner kept getting in the way damit.

Dance little sister dance

One of the attractions of the RnR era was the jiving; and in this case, particularly the couple that has the girl in the full skirt. Jumping around in one place with no hand to hand contact -- you can't call that dancing! Thanks for posting.

Great song. I find the versions of Chuck and Dave a bit too slow. When I listen to Elvis I really feel the urgency and how desperate he is to reach the Promised Land.

America's influence on UK music just as powerful as vice versa. This great musician is from Wales and he's wonderful.

Jumbo Like.

Where did you get the wonderful video to go with this great version?

Welsh got it goin' on....

Good record great song. Percussion sounds like spoons?
