Folks, everyone here already knows that Chuck is the one true originator (with a Little Richard thrown in of Rock n Roll!! There should be Chuck Berry day every year world wide. All of these mega rich recording artist should mail Chuck a fat check on a regular basis! I have a book comming out in the spring 'The Iconoclast, Book 1 - On The Planet' This book will be an international best seller. In the book it is mentioned as a matter of fact that Chuck Berry is the creator of the music style known as Rock n Roll and a musical genuis whose Ballad and Blue's vocals are supreme. I hope that via this publication (the book is not about Chuck, but is a great story) I can remind the folk young and old... Remember those who came before you and pay omage to the giants among us!! Love You Chuck!!
