May 1st, 1957 was a momentous occasion. Take a minute to read the Riverfront Times article.

This is great information. May is a special month for Chuck Berry. On this LP he is the very first musican at Chess Records to have his own album out. And for sure we know he recorded his first single Maybellene at Chess studio in Chicago on May 21, 1955. For more information about Berrys' albums and records this two books is more than excellent reading:

The Chuck Berry International Directory - Volume 1 (by Morten Reff)

Long Distance Information - Chuck Berry's Recorded Legacy (by Fred Rothwell)
