Charles Edward Anderson "Chuck" Berry (born October 18, 1926) is an American guitarist, singer and songwriter, and one of the pioneers of rock and roll music. With songs such as "Maybellene" (1955), "Roll Over Beethoven" (1956), "Rock and Roll Music" (1957) and "Johnny B. Goode" (1958), Chuck Berry refined and developed rhythm and blues into the major elements that made rock and roll distinctive, with lyrics focusing on teen life and consumerism and utilizing guitar solos and showmanship that would be a major influence on subsequent rock music.

                                                                 "CAROL" is about a boy who must learn to dance or risk losing Carol to other men. Chuck Berry got the name Carol from the daughter of Clyde McPhatter's girlfriend's daughter. McPhatter was popular R&B singer who fronted The Drifters for a time.

 

********************************************************************************************************************

I have been collecting records for the last 55 years, mainly early rock, doo wop, country and western - - - you name it, I’ve got it. I also inherited my father’s collection, mainly C & W in 1984. So I presently have over 20 000 records that have been stored with care. I have many hundreds of LPs that are still sealed. Many of my records are rare and hard to come by. There are both American and Canadian pressings.  It’s time to let them go and I’m beginning with some 78’s.


***************************************************************************************************************************

I COMBINE SHIPPING FOR UP TO FIVE (5) 78s.  For each additional record  add $3 USD.

Contact me if you are making multiple item bids (over no more than two successive days) and I will wait until all successful bids are complete . I will then send a single invoice with the total  cost. Please DON'T pay until you receive this invoice. Thanks.
