HAPPY BIRTHDAY Chuck Berry
Chuck Berry turns 90 years old today! I consider him a legend, a true music icon!
He was just a little before my time. I was born in 1955 and was real little. But I remember my Mother listening to his 45's on her mono record player and on the radio, while cleaning our house in the early 60's.

Happy birthday, Chuck. Only the good die young.
I'm a 1937 model, so he hit big in my youth.
I never could do that damn duck walk.

They also said he announced the release of his new album (cd) coming out in Jan of 2017. They said two of his kids play on the recording. It's his first album release in something like 30 years.
He joked and said its his last album and after it, he was retiring!!
Now that's funny!!
Rock On Chuck!!!

Saw him in concert twice... could never get enough of him. He wasn't a real PG performance! In fact I got a CD in the car I just listened to.
Happy birthday, Chuck!

"When I was just a little bitty boy...."
Introduced a 12 year old back in '72 to a great talent.
Thanks Chuck for the memories and detention days.

I saw him in concert when he was 55 years old, duck-walking and jumping around the stage like he was 18.
