Chuck Berry: Chuck Berry - Chuck Rocks

1-CD-Album DigiPac with 52-page booklet, 32 tracks. Playing time approx. 80 mns.

From the rockabilly flavoured Maybellene to the adrenalin rush of Dear Dad (both about automobiles!) this formidable collection spans ten years and over 20 Hot Hundred Hits. They're all here. All his greatest songs. This is a non-stop hymn to the USA; a crash course chronicle of high school hops, teen romance and rock 'n' roll cartography. Hear the most imitated electric guitar licks of all time; driving riffs which separate Chuck Berry music from the jump blues of his predecessors. 'Every guitarist I auditioned would have to play 'Johnny B. Goode'' (Ronnie Hawkins). Chuck Berry is an enigmatic man. Charming one minute and cold the next. But this hit-packed compilation is red-hot from start to finish. 'Why should I write songs Chuck Berry wrote them all' (George Thorogood).

Bear Family's 'Rocks' series finally gets to anthologise the most influential rock 'n' roll musician this side of Elvis. It was, it's been said, Chuck Berry who started it all and, in truth, his influence is incalculable and deeply felt especially by the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. As John Lennon once put it, if you wanted to give rock 'n' roll another name, you might call it 'Chuck Berry'; Jagger and Richards are said to have met when Richards clocked a Chuck Berry album under Jagger's arm.

No other songwriter has articulated the demands of the consumer society so vividly nor understood the feelings and frustrations of youth so perfectly (yet, remarkably, he was 31 when Sweet Little Sixteen was released). Chuck Berry wrote unforgettable playlets about automobile gadgetry, wayward women, classroom repression and rock 'n' roll itself. Each of these 32 tracks is a monument to his trademark guitar, the vibrant economy of his lyrics and the unifying, uplifting and enduring power of a catalogue which provided the biggest single stimulus for the '60s R&B revival, the Merseybeat explosion and the British Invasion.
Hail! Hail! Rock'n'Roll!

Customer evaluation for "Chuck Berry - Chuck Rocks"

From: Joe1950 On: 4 Apr 2020

The best Chuck Berry compilation ever, period

I would give this ten stars if possible - Chuck Berry is ready amde for the Bear Family "Rocks" series. This is easily best Chuck collection on one CD, sound quality and great booklet with not a single bad track - easily beats prior "The Great Twenty Eight" compilation from 1984 on MCA.

From: Marc-A. Comtois On: 8 Apr 2017

The name says it all!!

What more is there to say about Chuck Berry?
Was there ever/will there ever be a better "rock&roll song" writer than Chuck Berry? Leiber & Stoller? Lennon-McCartney? Jagger-Richard? Anybody else??? Close, maybe, but no cigar!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-BODY! Chuckie-Boy is Numero Uno!!

From: Redecker On: 13 Mar 2014

As with all volumes in the series, we have a neat, well-designed package. It's the definitive Chuck Berry in 32 tracks, and yes, it \Rocks\".

Lob an das Label, denn erneut hat man dort eine Themenanthologie zusammengestellt, die alle bisherigen in den Schattenstellt.

Chuck Berry Rocks CD sound quality is amazing! TBear Family Records did a great job selecting 32 of Chuck's most representative songs in chronological order. My favourite songs are Roll Over Beethoven, School Day, Rock And Roll Music, Sweet Little Sixteen, Johnny B. Goode and Memphis Tennessee. I strongly recommend this title to anyone who is interested in hearing the best 50's poetry and music ever written! Chuck Berry to me truly is the undisputed King of Rock'n'Roll and one of its true pioneers... Hail! Hail! Rock'n'Roll!
