	Chuck Berry
		In 1972, Chuck recorded a partially live album called "The London Chuck Berry Sessions." The live portion of the album was recorded at the Lanchester Arts Festival in Coventry, England, with the Average White Band backing up Chuck for the show.
		Chuck Berry was probably the most influential artist from the early days of rock and roll, in terms of the impact that his music had on the evolution of the genre.
		Before Chuck Berry arrived on the scene the guitar was mainly a background instrument in rock and roll and rhythm and blues.

	Amazon.co.uk: The Best of Chuck Berry: Music
		Classic Chess-period back-catalogue, mostly singles, but a few album tracks where these have become well-known through other versions, from his first single, Maybelline, to an extended live version of Reelin' And Rockin' in 1972, showing his sly, witty lyrics which flow with the beat so skillfully and rhythmically, and his exemplary guitar playing and singing.
		It is hard to over-estimate the influence Chuck Berry had, particularly in the nineteen-sixties, on other musicians and songwriters, including for starters the Beatles, the Stones, the Beach Boys and Bob Dylan
		My only critism is that so many of Berry's tracks sound identical, especially the intros, nevertheless the humour and guitar pro-ess will get you listening to this album again and again.

	AC/DC Album Reviews
		Later AC/DC released a album called High Voltage with most of the tracks from this album but the T.N.T album has the two songs 'Rocker' and the Chuck Berry cover 'School Days' which were not released on album any where else.
		The album was clearly one of the greatest albums to be released especially when Australian Rock N Roll is concerned.
		Produced by George Young and Harry Vanda it was the first album the band released with Brian Johnson doing the vocals due to the death of the bands former lead singer Bon Scott.

	On the Waterfront, Inc. - Rockford, Illinois
		The group became known as The Allman Brothers Band and made their ultimate breakthrough in the music industry in 1971 with the release of their double-live album entitled "Live at the Fillmore East".
		In 1973 the remaining band members hired Lamar Williams and Chuck Levall to take the places of their lost friends, and together the new group released an album entitled "Brothers and Sisters" which produced the song "Ramblin' Man", which topped the Billboard charts at number two.
		Duane Allman was killed in a motorcycle crash, and then only one year later Berry Oakley died under eerily similar circumstances only a few blocks away from where Duane was killed.

	VH1.com : Chuck Berry : Biography
		Berry had moved with the times and found a new audience in the bargain and when the cries of "yeah-yeah-yeah" were replaced with peace signs, Berry altered his live act to include a passel of slow blues and quickly became a fixture on the festival and hippie ballroom circuit.
		He appeared as himself in the Alan Freed bio-pic, American Hot Wax, and was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, but steadfastly refused to record any new material or even issue a live album.
		Part of the secret to its originality was Berry's blazing 24-bar guitar solo in the middle of it, the imaginative rhyme schemes in the lyrics, and the sheer thump of the record, all signaling that rock & roll had arrived and it was no fad.

	The Album Listen-a-thon
		They had a Chuck Berry cover on this album was well, "Rock And Roll Music", and it was fair as well.
		Though the picture on the cover shows a live band shot, this is a studio album, however I would bet that they recorded it 'live' instead of piece by piece.
		First off, the album I have belonged to Nance Moberley and she loved Dan a lot, cause she wrote it all over the album cover I have.

	Bryan Reesman - "Hell Bent For Leather: The Story Of Judas Priest"
		In 1987, they released the album and video Priest...Live!, a concert compilation of their 80s material which was met with lukewarm reception and became their first full-length release not to go gold since British Steel.
		Some unused Turbo tracks were revamped, including "Ram It Down" and "Monsters of Rock," while newer material was brought in, including an excellent, off-the-wall cover of Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode," initially released on the soundtrack to the movie of the same name earlier that year.
		With the Turbo album, I hope each and every one of them crammed it up their ass when it came out, because I'm sure that they were expecting something that they could really get their teeth into and utilize.

	Stones cover compilation
		Keith Richards, remembering the earliest days of the band, has talked about meeting with Ian Stewart's frank disapproval of his taste in music "You're the Chuck Berry artist?" was how Keith was greeted by Stu, who had already answered Brian Jones' call for blues players.
		Keith was not a virtuoso and began to realize that he simply could not offer the technically accomplished solos gracing albums like "Are You Experienced" or "Disraeli Gears." (To be fair, most of his contemporaries couldn't either).
		Keith crafted a great setting for the song, incorporating both country and Delta influences new Stone Mick Taylor contributes typically immaculate slide guitar and the song stands out, even on an album deemed by many to be among their best.

	Small Faces/Humble Pie/Frampton
		There are also versions of two single sides not available on their albums: Marriott's title track, a rote Chuck Berry imitation that was their first A-side and only major UK hit, and 1970s "Big Black Dog," a generic-sounding but amusing hard rocker by Frampton, Marriott, and Ridley.
		Like all of his solo records before his breakthrough live album, this one is a guilty pleasure, weighed down by air-headed lyrics but lifted by good hooks and good vibes.
		With the Bowie album and tour over, Frampton cut another new studio album.

	Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers - Damn The Torpedoes
		is the Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers album we've all been waiting for -- that is, if we were all Tom Petty fans, which we would be if there were any justice in the world, live shows for all, free records everywhere and rockin' radio.
		When punk rock arrived as a combative answer to the bloating and fatigue of 1970s rock, an odd thing happened: Bands that were interested only in plugging in and channeling Chuck Berry were cast in with Britain's latest rabble.
		Though Petty is alone on the cover, the album is a band project in the truest sense.

	Amazon.com: Night Moves: Music
		Bob Seger was seven years into his recording career and a regional rock star in the Detroit area when he broke nationally in 1976 with a concert album, Live Bullet, and his best-ever studio album, Night Moves.
		Seger's a powerful singer who's always believed in the traditional rock trimmings of a big beat accompanied by Chuck Berry figures on the guitar and hammering riffs on the piano.
		This album has awesome songs, I can choose a song at random and be impressed even if it is one of the first times I heard it.

	Bob Seger
		The psychedelicized days of Ramblin' Gamblin' Man are long gone on Live Bullet, leaving behind a rocker who loved the Stones for their toughness, Dylan for his honesty, and Chuck Berry for his narrative - and one who found his own sound when the Silver Bullet Band came into their own through countless tours.
		Night Moves was in the pipeline when Live Bullet hit and that album wound up eclipsing the double-live set anyway, so Stranger in Town is really the record where Bob Seger started grasping the changes that happened when he became a star.
		The touring paid off in 1976, when Live Bullet, a double-album recorded in Detroit, became a hit, spending over three years on the US charts and going gold; the album would eventually go quadruple platinum.

	Amazon.co.uk: Live Bullet: Music
		Seger and the Silver Bullet Band start off with a hard-rocking version of Tina Turner's "Nutbush City Limits", but most of the songs are Seger originals (the exceptions being Bo Diddley's eponymous first hit, Van Morrison's "I've Been Working", and Chuck Berry's "Let It Rock"- credited to E. Anderson!).
		This album, first released in April 1976, shows what a fine live performer Bob Seger was (and is).

	PAST ARCHIVES The Yardbirds
		If you don't crave for more than one album of the stuff, "Five Live Yardbirds" is probably the one to get.
		The music here is almost too well known to discuss, but basically it consists of Chuck Berry, Isley Brothers, John Lee Hooker standards, among others, given a kicking as only British blues boom bands knew how.
		As Giorgio Gomelsky's sleevenotes note, "Something of the excitement and freshness of the Yardbird sound had been captured on tape", and "Five Live Yardbirds" can turn your lounge into a pretty fair approximation of a sweaty mid-60s London RandB club, with all the beer-swilling crudity and distortion that implies.

	Live at the Hollywood Palladium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Hollywood Palladium was the club on Sunset Strip where in 1972 Chuck Berry threw Keith off stage when the young Rolling Stone tried to jump up and play with his idol.
		The record is primarily a Keith Richards document- a live record of the Talk is Cheap album; although it has several classic Rolling Stones tracks, like "Happy" and "Time is on My Side", which is sung by Sarah Dash.

	VH1.com : The Blues Project : Biography
		Blumenfeld and Kulberg kept the Blues Project going for a fourth album before forming Seatrain, and the group re-formed in the early '70s with various lineups, Kooper rejoining for a live 1973 album, Reunion in Central Park.
		Blues by Muddy Waters and Chuck Berry tunes ran alongside covers of contemporary folk-rock songs by Eric Anderson and Patrick Sky, as well as the group's own originals.
		A third album, Live at Town Hall, was a particularly half-assed project given the band's stature, pasted together from live tapes and studio outtakes, some of which were overdubbed with applause to give the impression that they had been recorded in concert.

	Chuck Berry Collector's Guide - The Chess Era (1955-1966)
		In England however, Pye Records now created their own albums which corresponded to the huge interest in Chuck Berry on this side of the Atlantic Ocean.
		However these are not songs but just some of the introductions recorded during a french live show (and of course completely unrelated to the songs of the album).
		Most of Chuck Berry's fame is based on the recordings he made for Leonard and Phil Chess of CHESS Record Company between 1955 and 1966.

	No Depression Archive Issue #22
		Raucous medleys of Chuck Berry tunes found a home next to trucker songs and old gospel numbers, while torchy ballads such as Boudleaux Bryant's "Love Hurts" and "Sleepless Nights" became Parsons/Harris masterpieces.
		This juxtaposition between musical cultures comes across vividly on tapes of live shows Parsons and Harris played with the Fallen Angels, some of which are documented on the Sierra Records album Live 1973 and various performance bootlegs.
		Harris says her transcendent harmonies with Parsons came about through "osmosis": "Just by singing with him," she says, "I learned that you plow it under and let the melody and the words carry you.

	Mandible Chatter
		We added the Mahler loop, the Chuck Berry loop (an allusion to our previous album) and the Tori Amos loop ("chatter, chatter, chatter") which is from a piece that we sometimes do live but can't put on a record for fear of copyright infringement.
		I mean, we still strive for diversity in a live setting - moving from one textural "movement" to another, perhaps ending with an ambient guitar duet (or even a song!) - but there's no way to recreate the lushness of the recent discs.
		Plus, I'm interested in so many different types of music that bits of it finds its way to Mandible Chatter sessions and albums.

	The Rainmakers - Free Music Downloads, Videos, CDs, MP3s, Bio, Merchandise and Links
		The 1988 follow-up Tornado didn't attract as much critical attention in the U.S., but the Rainmakers' European audience continued to grow; by the time of 1989's The Good News and the Bad News, the band was concentrating mostly on that area, recording the concert album Oslo-Wichita Live solely for its Scandinavian fans.
		Chief songwriter Bob Walkenhorst's playful wit and topical lyrics set the Rainmakers apart from their Heartland bar band peers, though musically they drew from the expected roots rock influences (Chuck Berry, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Bruce Springsteen, etc.).

		Tosh returned to America regularly, and covered the Temptations' "(You Got to Walk and) Don't Look Back" on the Bush Doctor album, and Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode" on 1983's Mama Africa.
		After the release of Mama Africa and the subsequent tour's live album, Tosh disappeared for four years, seeking the advice of traditional African medicine men and trying to get out of recording contracts after discovering that his records were being released in South Africa, despite provisions in those contracts to the contrary.
		In 1978, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones, impressed by his militant attitude, signed Peter Tosh to their fledgling label and sat in on his third album, Bush Doctor.

	Jim Kweskin & The Jug Band - Greatest Hits Jim Kweskin & The Jug Band A must for...
		This an outstanding collection and overview of Jim Kweskin & The Jug Band ; through the ears of 60's folk-music, it recalls the best of the 20's and 30's good-time whoopie music, refreshingly, and with a bit of modernism (Chuck Berry's "Memphis, Tennessee" for example,) thrown in for good measure.
		I live in the U.K. and in 1968 I got hold of a copy of an album by Jim Kweskin and his Jug Band and I was totally knocked out.
		The album is a mix of jug band classics and humorous pieces done with very solid musicianship and a comfort in the recording studio often missing in "authentic folk" jugband music album.

		They took the Australian charts by storm with tracks like Borich's 'Gonna See My Baby Tonight' and Chuck Berry's 'Too Pooped To Pop' which had the smarts of great pop records underpinned by a crack band.
		He arrived with the La De Das from New Zealand and they proved themselves to be one of the tightest hardworking rock and roll bands in the world.
