I'm seriously bummed out, man. One of my best friends killed himself exactly one year ago today. And now Chuck Berry dies. He was one of our favorites. What a suck day.

Sorry to hear that George.

My wife and I saw Chuck at Memorial Hall in KCK in 1973. Halfway through the show, if you weren't dancing, you had no soul.

if it wasn't for Chuck Berry maybe my favorite guitarist Angus Young doesn't become the duck walking legend he is now. Thank you Chuck you are a guitar God ...Rest in peace...

I would replace Truman with Robert A. Heinlein.

Chuck did nothing to end WWII, but Harry couldn't duck walk. So you could say that's a tie for first. Mark Twain died in Connecticut.

I saw Chuck Berry at World's of Fun. Was a great show.

He lived a long life. Lucky Guy!

But hope he enjoys his next journey in the blue yonder.

On a semi-related note, I've watched this video from John Scruggs that showed up on my FB feed a dozen times now.

<iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fdusttodigital%2Fvideos%2F10154920261190821%2F&show_t ext=0&width=400" width="400" height="400" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true" allowFullScreen="true"></iframe>
When I reposted it a few weeks ago - my comment was "if you listen closely, you can almost Maybelline being born". Chuck Berry was the right guy at the right time to evolve the music of slaves and sharecroppers, which itself had evolved from African rhythms mixed with gospel hymns and old Southern standards, into the most popular genre of music ever.
