"All of Chuck's children are out there playing his licks..."
(From "Rock & Roll Never Forgets" by Bob Seger)

John Lennon said, "If you tried to give rock & roll another name, you might call it Chuck Berry.'"

Bob Dylan once called him "the Shakespeare of rock & roll"

1. I love several of them, mostly other peoples versions though. ELO's Roll Over Beethoven,

The Stones doing Carol on their Get Yer Ya Ya's Out live album, and Rick Derringer doing Back in the USA on Edgar Winters White Trash Roadwork live album.
