OT RIP Chuck Berry

RIP and Hail Hail Rock and Roll! Chuck put a double espresso into the blues! One of his longtime sidemen played for a short stretch with a blues band I was in and had a million stories about the guy....he was a wild, wild man! 90 years and a hell of a legacy....he lived big.

1955! The world changed, Rock 'n Roll, a new sound hit the scene. Chuck Berry, Bill Haley and on they came.
Saw Chuck Berry the first time at the Cottonwoods in Lebanon in 1955. His one leg squat scoot while still playing was crazy stuff.

To the Father of Rock'n Roll rest in peace

Love the Voyager letter, I remember seeing Chuck Berry performing Johnny Be Good at the Voyager celebration.

Hail Hail Rock & Roll. May he forever dance with Sweet Little Sixteen. And Chucky Be Good!

When an old rocker dies the thread goes on for hundreds of posts...

The creator of rock and roll dies and he barely gets crickets...

SlyPokerDog was born to bitch.

A documentary I just watched actually spoke about him a lot "Accidental Courtesy" it's on Netflix. If you haven't seen it yet, you should go check it out.

What old rocker?

 

[stampedehero]

Without Chuck we would be stuck with Pat Boone, Mel Tome or Ricky Nelson. That's no way to live.

Why the heck did you mess up my post.

Who can argue against Chuck Berry being born to Rock?

The Russians hacked your account and were posting personal insults with it in the forum last night.

By repeatedly changing their posts they finally gave up and went to bed.

You must have been tired, only truth was posted.
Chuck Berry was born to Rock.
The bitcher was born to bitch.
End of story. All though he crossed the line of decent in another thread too. Perhaps you were too tired to correct the proper post.

It's very simple, attack what someone posts, not them personally.

Well we are about done here Sly. But I will tell you before I go, only a person can cross the line and it is the person that must be address and informed that it has happen. Nothing to address in the post that crosses the line. When someone chides a Vet for being in the VA collecting socialized healthcare, that is way over the line. I will correct the asshole that does that every time.
You didn't, I tried and you obviated the message.
I am out.

I did talk to Dviss about what he posted. Not playing favorites in that argument.

In rereading those posts Dviss was talking about the illegals getting healthcare, he didn't say anything insulting about vets collecting VA benefits.

If your message is to just call people names then that isn't much of a message.

You're the one thinking Drumpf is doing well now... We'll see once you lose your healthcare.

Son, that already happened years ago under the obummer plan. I can not afford to purchase health care with what we have now. I am just glad that I have VA, even as totally fucked up that is.

So you have free, taxpayer funded, single payer, government controlled, socialist care?

Lucky you.

It is hardly free, but the comment is insulting. Sorry you can't see it.
It is often done by liberals that think everyone should have it. Although they don't want to pay the price.

Don't care. No personal insults means no personal insults.

Fine Sly. You have your definition of insult and it differs greatly from mine. Some insults are just tweaks, some are way the fuck out of bounds, over the line.
But you do as you see fit.

I give credit to Louis Jordan, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Elvis, Buddy Holly and the Crickets, Eddie Cochran and lots of folks for rock and roll...Chuck Berry to me defined rock and roll guitar but Little Richard and Jerry Lee Lewis were playing it on the keys....Bill Haley gets some credit too....they all traveled the same circuit together when rock and roll was born....Johnny Cash was part of those tours too. In Johnny Cash's book he talks about how wild those days were on the bus....makes all these Van Halen stories look tame.

Bill Haley

Bill Haley while nowhere near the best, got it kicked off in a rush by having the platform that got the play all around the country.
Rock Around the Clock was the theme song of the movie, Blackboard Jungle in 1955. Glen Ford and Sidney Poitier.
Big hit! Everyone saw it. Rock was on. But then I saw Chuck Berry at the Cottonwoods, I think he was sort of amazed his music became so in, so fast.

 

[riverman]

Chuck said he was hugely influenced as a guitarist by T Bone Walker...T Bone was playing with his teeth and behind his head long before Buddy Guy or Jimmy Hendrix made it famous.

If you want to insult people then do it via Private Message. The majority of people here don't want to read post after post of two guys melting down and insulting each other.
