Charles Edward Anderson Berry (October 18, 1926 – March eighteen, 2017) was an American singer, songwriter and guitarist who pioneered rock and gyre. Nicknamed the "Begetter of Rock and Roll", he refined and adult rhythm and blues into the major elements that made stone and coil distinctive with songs such as "Maybellene" (1955), "Roll Over Beethoven" (1956), "Rock and Coil Music" (1957) and "Johnny B. Goode" (1958).[1] Writing lyrics that focused on teen life and consumerism, and developing a music style that included guitar solos and showmanship, Berry was a major influence on subsequent rock music.[2]

Built-in into a center-form blackness family in St. Louis, Berry had an involvement in music from an early age and gave his commencement public operation at Sumner High Schoolhouse. While still a high school pupil he was convicted of armed robbery and was sent to a reformatory, where he was held from 1944 to 1947. After his release, Berry settled into married life and worked at an machine assembly plant. Past early 1953, influenced by the guitar riffs and showmanship techniques of the blues musician T-Bone Walker, Berry began performing with the Johnnie Johnson Trio.[three] His break came when he traveled to Chicago in May 1955 and met Muddy Waters, who suggested he contact Leonard Chess, of Chess Records. With Chess, he recorded "Maybellene"—Drupe's adaptation of the country song "Ida Red"—which sold over a million copies, reaching number one on Billboard mag's rhythm and blues chart.[4]

Past the end of the 1950s, Berry was an established star, with several hit records and film appearances and a lucrative touring career. He had also established his ain St. Louis nightclub, Berry's Club Bandstand.[5] He was sentenced to three years in prison in January 1962 for offenses under the Isle of mann Act—he had transported a 14-year-old girl beyond land lines for the purpose of having sexual intercourse.[3] [vi] [7] After his release in 1963, Berry had several more successful songs, including "No Particular Place to Get", "You lot Never Can Tell", and "Nadine". Withal, these did not achieve the same success or lasting affect of his 1950s songs, and by the 1970s he was more in demand every bit a nostalgia performer, playing his by textile with local fill-in bands of variable quality.[iii] In 1972 he reached a new level of accomplishment when a rendition of "My Ding-a-Ling" became his simply tape to peak the charts. His insistence on beingness paid in cash led in 1979 to a four-calendar month jail judgement and community service, for revenue enhancement evasion.

Berry was among the showtime musicians to exist inducted into the Rock and Scroll Hall of Fame on its opening in 1986; he was cited for having "laid the groundwork for not only a stone and roll sound but a stone and roll stance."[8] Drupe is included in several of Rolling Stone magazine'due south "greatest of all time" lists; he was ranked fifth on its 2004 and 2011 lists of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.[ix] The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame'south 500 Songs That Shaped Stone and Coil includes three of Drupe's: "Johnny B. Goode", "Maybellene", and "Rock and Roll Music".[10] Berry's "Johnny B. Goode" is the just rock-and-coil song included on the Voyager Golden Record.[eleven]

Early life

Born in St. Louis,[12] Berry was the youngest child. He grew up in the north St. Louis neighborhood known as the Ville, an area where many middle-class people lived. His male parent, Henry William Berry (1895–1987) was a contractor and deacon of a nearby Baptist church; his female parent, Martha Bell (Banks) (1894–1980) was a certified public school chief.[thirteen] Berry's upbringing allowed him to pursue his interest in music from an early age. He gave his first public performance in 1941 while all the same a pupil at Sumner High School;[14] he was still a student there in 1944, when he was arrested for armed robbery after robbing iii shops in Kansas Urban center, Missouri, and then stealing a car at gunpoint with some friends.[fifteen] [sixteen] Drupe's account in his autobiography is that his car bankrupt downwards and he flagged downwardly a passing motorcar and stole it at gunpoint with a nonfunctional pistol.[17] He was convicted and sent to the Intermediate Reformatory for Immature Men at Algoa, near Jefferson City, Missouri,[12] where he formed a singing quartet and did some boxing.[15] The singing group became competent enough that the government allowed it to perform exterior the detention facility.[18] Berry was released from the reformatory on his 21st birthday in 1947.

On October 28, 1948, Berry married Themetta "Toddy" Suggs, who gave nascence to Darlin Ingrid Berry on October 3, 1950.[19] Berry supported his family by taking various jobs in St. Louis, working briefly every bit a factory worker at two automobile assembly plants and as a janitor in the flat building where he and his wife lived. Afterwards he trained equally a beautician at the Poro College of Cosmetology, founded past Annie Turnbo Malone.[xx] He was doing well enough past 1950 to buy a "minor three room brick cottage with a bathroom" on Whittier Street,[21] which is now listed as the Chuck Drupe Firm on the National Register of Celebrated Places.[22]

By the early on 1950s, Berry was working with local bands in clubs in St. Louis as an extra source of income.[21] He had been playing dejection since his teens, and he borrowed both guitar riffs and showmanship techniques from the blues musician T-Bone Walker.[23] He likewise took guitar lessons from his friend Ira Harris, which laid the foundation for his guitar way.[24]

By early 1953 Drupe was performing with Johnnie Johnson's trio, starting a long-time collaboration with the pianist.[25] [26] The ring played dejection and ballads too as state. Berry wrote, "Marvel provoked me to lay a lot of our state stuff on our predominantly black audition and some of our black audience began whispering 'who is that black hillbilly at the Cosmo?' After they laughed at me a few times they began requesting the hillbilly stuff and enjoyed dancing to information technology."[12]

In 1954, Berry recorded the tracks "I Hope These Words Will Find You Well" and "Oh, Maria!" with the group Joe Alexander & the Cubans. The songs were released every bit a single on the Carol characterization.[27]

Berry's showmanship, along with a mix of state tunes and R&B tunes, sung in the style of Nat Male monarch Cole prepare to the music of Muddy Waters brought in a wider audience, particularly affluent white people.[three] [28]

Career

1955–1962: Signing with Chess: "Maybellene" to "Come up On"

In May 1955, Berry traveled to Chicago, where he met Muddy Waters who suggested he contact Leonard Chess, of Chess Records. Drupe thought his blues music would interest Chess, just Chess was a larger fan of Drupe's accept on "Ida Ruby-red".[29] On May 21, 1955, Berry recorded an accommodation of the song "Ida Red", nether the title "Maybellene", with Johnnie Johnson on the pianoforte, Jerome Green (from Bo Diddley'south band) on the maracas, Ebby Hardy on the drums and Willie Dixon on the bass.[30] "Maybellene" sold over a million copies, reaching number one on Billboard mag's rhythm and blues nautical chart and number five on its Best Sellers in Stores chart for September x, 1955.[12] [31] Drupe said, "Information technology came out at the right time when Afro-American music was spilling over into the mainstream pop."[32]

When Berry commencement saw a re-create of the Maybellene record, he was surprised that two other individuals, including DJ Alan Freed had been given writing credit; that would entitle them to some of the royalties. After a courtroom boxing, Berry was able to regain full writing credit.[33] [34]

At the cease of June 1956, his song "Roll Over Beethoven" reached number 29 on the Billboard 's Top 100 chart, and Berry toured as one of the "Top Acts of '56". He and Carl Perkins became friends. Perkins said that "I knew when I offset heard Chuck that he'd been affected past country music. I respected his writing; his records were very, very swell."[35] In late 1957, Berry took part in Alan Freed's "Biggest Show of Stars for 1957", touring the U.s.a. with the Everly Brothers, Buddy Holly, and others.[36] He was a guest on ABC's Guy Mitchell Testify, singing his hit song "Rock 'n' Roll Music". The hits continued from 1957 to 1959, with Berry scoring over a dozen nautical chart singles during this catamenia, including the The states Top 10 hits "School Days", "Rock and Roll Music", "Sweet Niggling Sixteen", and "Johnny B. Goode". He appeared in two early rock-and-roll movies: Rock Rock Rock (1956), in which he sang "You lot Tin't Catch Me", and Go, Johnny, Go! (1959), in which he had a speaking office every bit himself and performed "Johnny B. Goode", "Memphis, Tennessee", and "Niggling Queenie". His functioning of "Sweet Little 16" at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1958 was captured in the movement picture Jazz on a Summer'due south Twenty-four hours.[37]

The opening guitar riff of "Johnny B. Goode"[38] is surprisingly like to the one used by Louis Jordan in his Ain't That Just Like a Adult female (1946).[38] Berry acknowledged the debt to Hashemite kingdom of jordan and several sources accept indicated that his work was influenced by Jordan in general.[39] [xl] [41]

By the stop of the 1950s, Berry was a high-profile established star with several hitting records and film appearances and a lucrative touring career. He had opened a racially integrated St. Louis nightclub, Berry'southward Club Bandstand, and invested in existent estate.[42] But in December 1959, he was arrested under the Mann Deed after allegations that he had had sexual intercourse with a fourteen-year-old Apache waitress, Janice Escalante,[43] whom he had transported across country lines to work as a hatcheck girl at his gild.[44] Subsequently a ii-week trial in March 1960, he was convicted, fined $v,000, and sentenced to five years in prison.[45] He appealed the decision, arguing that the judge'south comments and attitude were racist and prejudiced the jury against him. The entreatment was upheld,[half-dozen] [46] and a second trial was heard in May and June 1961,[47] resulting in another conviction and a three-year prison judgement.[48] After another appeal failed, Berry served one and one-half years in prison, from Feb 1962 to October 1963.[49] He had continued recording and performing during the trials, but his output had slowed every bit his popularity declined; his final single released before he was imprisoned was "Come On".[50]

1963–1969: "Nadine" and movement to Mercury

Drupe and his sister Lucy Ann (1965)

When Berry was released from prison in 1963, his return to recording and performing was made easier considering British invasion bands—notably the Beatles and the Rolling Stones—had sustained interest in his music by releasing encompass versions of his songs,[51] [52] and other bands had reworked some of them, such as the Beach Boys' 1963 hitting "Surfin' U.s.A.", which used the melody of Berry's "Sweet Trivial Sixteen".[53] In 1964 and 1965 Berry released eight singles, including three that were commercially successful, reaching the top 20 of the Billboard 100: "No Particular Identify to Go" (a humorous reworking of "School Days", concerning the introduction of seat belts in cars),[54] "You Never Tin can Tell", and the rocking "Nadine".[55] Between 1966 and 1969 Berry released five albums for Mercury Records, including his 2nd alive album (and offset recorded entirely onstage), Live at Fillmore Auditorium; for the live anthology he was backed past the Steve Miller Band.[56] [57]

Although this menstruum was not a successful 1 for studio work,[58] Drupe was notwithstanding a top concert draw. In May 1964, he had made a successful bout of the Uk,[54] but when he returned in January 1965 his behavior was erratic and moody, and his touring fashion of using unrehearsed local backing bands and a strict nonnegotiable contract was earning him a reputation as a difficult and unexciting performer.[59] He also played at large events in North America, such as the Schaefer Music Festival, in New York Metropolis'south Cardinal Park in July 1969, and the Toronto Rock and Roll Revival festival in October.[60]

1970–1979: Back to Chess: "My Ding-a-Ling" to White House concert

Berry helped give life to a subculture ... Fifty-fifty "My Ding-a-Ling", a quaternary-course wee-wee joke that used to mortify truthful believers at higher concerts, permitted a lot of twelve-yr-olds new insight into the moribund concept of "muddy" when it hit the airwaves ...

Robert Christgau[61]

Berry returned to Chess from 1970 to 1973. There were no hit singles from the 1970 album Dorsum Home, but in 1972 Chess released a live recording of "My Ding-a-Ling", a novelty song which he had recorded in a different version as "My Tambourine" on his 1968 LP From St. Louie to Frisco.[62] The track became his only number-one single. A live recording of "Reelin' and Rockin'", issued as a follow-up single in the same year, was his last Top 40 hitting in both the US and the United kingdom. Both singles were included on the part-live, part-studio anthology The London Chuck Berry Sessions (other albums of London sessions were recorded past Chess'southward mainstay artists Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf). Drupe'due south 2nd tenure with Chess ended with the 1975 anthology Chuck Berry, after which he did not make a studio record until Rockit for Atco Records in 1979, which would be his last studio album for 38 years.[63]

In the 1970s Berry toured on the strength of his earlier successes. He was on the road for many years, carrying but his Gibson guitar, confident that he could hire a ring that already knew his music no matter where he went. AllMusic said that in this period his "live performances became increasingly erratic, ... working with terrible backup bands and turning in sloppy, out-of-melody performances" which "tarnished his reputation with younger fans and oldtimers" akin.[42] In March 1972 he was filmed, at the BBC Television Theatre in Shepherds Bush-league, for Chuck Berry in Concert,[64] role of a 60-appointment tour backed by the ring Rocking Horse.[65] Among the many bandleaders performing a backup role with Berry in the 1970s were Bruce Springsteen and Steve Miller when each was simply starting his career. (Springsteen related in the documentary film Hail! Hail! Rock 'n' Roll that Berry did not give the band a set list, and expected the musicians to follow his lead after each guitar intro. Drupe did not speak to the band afterward the evidence. Nevertheless, Springsteen backed Berry again when he appeared at the concert for the Stone and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995.) At the request of Jimmy Carter, Berry performed at the White House on June 1, 1979.[57]

Berry's touring style, traveling the "oldies" circuit in the 1970s (frequently being paid in cash by local promoters), added armament to the Internal Acquirement Service'southward accusations that Drupe had evaded paying income taxes. Facing criminal sanction for the 3rd time, Berry pleaded guilty to evading virtually $110,000 in federal income taxation owed on his 1973 earnings. Paper reports in 1979 put his 1973 joint income (with his wife) at $374,982.[66] He was sentenced to four months in prison and 1,000 hours of community service—performing benefit concerts—in 1979.[67]

1980–2017: Last years on the road

Berry continued to play 70 to 100 1-nighters per year in the 1980s, still traveling solo and requiring a local band to back him at each stop. In 1986, Taylor Hackford fabricated a documentary film, Hail! Hail! Stone 'n' Roll, of a celebration concert for Berry's sixtieth altogether, organized by Keith Richards.[68] Eric Clapton, Etta James, Julian Lennon, Robert Cray, and Linda Ronstadt, among others, appeared with Berry on stage and in the film. During the concert, Drupe played a Gibson ES-355, the luxury version of the ES-335 that he favored on his 1970s tours. Richards played a black Fender Telecaster Custom, Cray a Fender Stratocaster and Clapton a Gibson ES 350T, the aforementioned model that Drupe used on his early recordings.[15]

In the late 1980s, Berry bought the Southern Air, a restaurant in Wentzville, Missouri.[69]

In Nov 2000, Berry faced legal issues when he was sued by his sometime pianist Johnnie Johnson who claimed that he had co-written over 50 songs, including "No Item Place to Become", "Sweet Picayune 16" and "Roll Over Beethoven", that credit Drupe alone. The case was dismissed when the judge ruled that besides much fourth dimension had passed since the songs were written.[70]

In 2008, Berry toured Europe, with stops in Sweden, Norway, Finland, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Ireland, Switzerland, Poland, and Spain. In mid-2008, he played at the Virgin Festival in Baltimore.[71] During a concert on New year's day's Day 2011 in Chicago, Berry, suffering from exhaustion, passed out and had to be helped off stage.[72]

Berry lived in Ladue, Missouri, approximately 10 miles (16 km) w of St. Louis. He also had a habitation at "Berry Park", most Wentzville, Missouri where he lived role-fourth dimension since the 1950s and was the home in which he died. This home, with the guitar-shaped swimming pool, is seen in scenes about the end of the film Hail! Hail! Rock 'n' Roll.[73] He regularly performed one Wednesday each calendar month at Blueberry Colina, a restaurant and bar located in the Delmar Loop neighborhood of St. Louis, from 1996 to 2014.

Berry announced on his 90th altogether that his first new studio anthology since Rockit in 1979, entitled Chuck, would be released in 2017.[74] His first new record in 38 years, it includes his children, Charles Berry Jr. and Ingrid, on guitar and harmonica, with songs "covering the spectrum from hard-driving rockers to soulful thought-provoking time capsules of a life'southward piece of work" and dedicated to his beloved wife of 68 years, Toddy.[75]

Physical and sexual corruption allegations

In 1987, Berry was charged with assaulting a adult female at New York'due south Gramercy Park Hotel. He was accused of causing "lacerations of the mouth, requiring five stitches, two loose teeth, [and] contusions of the confront." He pleaded guilty to a bottom accuse of harassment and paid a $250 fine.[76] In 1990, he was sued by several women who claimed that he had installed a video photographic camera in the bathroom of his restaurant. Berry claimed that he had had the photographic camera installed to catch a worker who was suspected of stealing from the eatery. Although his guilt was never proven in court, Drupe opted for a class action settlement. I of his biographers, Bruce Pegg, estimated that with 59 women it cost Berry over $1.two million plus legal fees.[xv] His lawyers said he had been the victim of a conspiracy to profit from his wealth.[xv] During this time Berry began using Wayne T. Schoeneberg as his legal counsel. Reportedly, a police raid on his business firm found intimate videotapes of women, ane of whom was apparently a minor. Too found in the raid were 62 grams of marijuana. Felony drug and child-abuse charges were filed. As the child-abuse charges were dropped, Berry agreed to plead guilty to misdemeanor possession of marijuana. He was given a vi-month suspended jail sentence, placed on 2 years unsupervised probation and was ordered to donate $5,000 to a local infirmary.[77] Later, videos Drupe recorded of himself urinating on a woman and some other of her defecating on him would surface.[78] [79] [eighty]

Death

On March 18, 2017, Berry was found unresponsive at his home near Wentzville, Missouri. Emergency workers called to the scene were unable to revive him, and he was pronounced expressionless by his personal physician.[81] [82] TMZ posted an audio recording on its website in which a 911 operator can be heard responding to a reported cardiac abort at Berry'southward home.[83]

Berry's funeral was held on April ix, 2017, at The Pageant, in Berry's hometown of St. Louis.[84] [85] He was remembered with a public viewing by family, friends, and fans in The Pageant, a music gild where he often performed. He was viewed with his carmine-red Gibson ES-335 guitar bolted to the within lid of the coffin[86] and with flower arrangements that included one sent past the Rolling Stones in the shape of a guitar. Afterwards a individual service was held in the lodge celebrating Drupe's life and musical career, with the Berry family inviting 300 members of the public into the service. Gene Simmons of Kiss gave an impromptu, unadvertised eulogy at the service, while Little Richard was scheduled to lead the funeral procession but was unable to nourish due to an illness. The night earlier, many St. Louis area bars held a mass toast at 10 pm in Berry'south honor.[87]

One of Berry'southward attorneys estimated that his estate was worth $50 million, including $17 million in music rights. Berry'south music publishing accounted for $xiii million of the estate's value. The Berry manor owned roughly half of his songwriting credits (mostly from his later career), while BMG Rights Management controlled the other one-half; most of Berry's recordings are currently owned by Universal Music Group.[88] In September 2017, Dualtone, the characterization which released Berry'south final album, Chuck, agreed to publish all his compositions in the Usa.[89]

Berry is interred in a mausoleum in Bellerive Gardens Cemetery in St. Louis.[90]

Legacy

"The founding male parent of rock n whorl" street art on Denmark Street, London

While no individual tin can exist said to take invented rock and coil, Chuck Berry comes the closest of any single figure to being the one who put all the essential pieces together. It was his particular genius to graft state & western guitar licks onto a rhythm & blues chassis in his very first single, "Maybellene".

Stone and Curlicue Hall of Fame[91] [92]

A pioneer of rock and roll, Drupe was a significant influence on the development of both the music and the attitude associated with the rock music lifestyle. With songs such as "Maybellene" (1955), "Roll Over Beethoven" (1956), "Stone and Scroll Music" (1957) and "Johnny B. Goode" (1958), Berry refined and developed rhythm and blues into the major elements that fabricated stone and scroll distinctive, with lyrics successfully aimed to appeal to the early teenage market place past using graphic and humorous descriptions of teen dances, fast cars, loftier school life, and consumer culture,[3] and utilizing guitar solos and showmanship that would be a major influence on subsequent rock music.[2] Thus Drupe, the songwriter, according to critic Jon Pareles, invented rock as "a music of teenage wishes fulfilled and proficient times (even with cops in pursuit)."[93] Berry contributed three things to rock music: an irresistible swagger, a focus on the guitar riff as the principal melodic element and an emphasis on songwriting equally storytelling.[94] His records are a rich storehouse of the essential lyrical, showmanship and musical components of stone and ringlet. In addition to the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, a large number of significant popular-music performers have recorded Berry'south songs.[iii] Although non technically accomplished, his guitar fashion is distinctive—he incorporated electronic effects to mimic the sound of clogging dejection guitarists and drew on the influence of guitar players such as Carl Hogan,[95] and T-Bone Walker[iii] to produce a clear and exciting sound that many later guitarists would acknowledge equally an influence in their own manner.[77] Drupe'south showmanship has been influential on other rock guitarists,[96] particularly his one-legged hop routine,[97] and the "duck walk",[98] which he first used equally a child when he walked "stooping with total-bended knees, but with my dorsum and head vertical" under a table to remember a ball and his family unit constitute information technology entertaining; he used it when "performing in New York for the first time and some announcer branded it the duck walk."[99] [100]

He has been cited equally a major reference to a diversity of some of the most influential acts of all time:

  • Elvis Presley covered "Memphis, Tennessee", Too Much Monkey Business", "Johnny B. Goode" and "Promised Land"
  • Jimi Hendrix covered "Johnny B. Goode"
  • The Beatles covered "Stone and Roll Music", "Roll Over Beethoven" and "Memphis, Tennessee" among others
  • The Rolling Stones accept covered "Around and Around", "Adieu Farewell Johnny", "Ballad", "Come On", "Allow It Rock", "Little Queenie", "Talkin' About You", and "You lot Can't Take hold of Me", among others
  • The Beach Boys used the melody from "Sugariness Footling Xvi" for "Surfin' U.Southward.A." and later covered "Stone and Whorl Music"
  • Carl Perkins covered "Coil Over Beethoven" and "Johnny B. Goode"
  • The Dave Clark V covered "Reelin' and Rockin'"
  • Electric Light Orchestra covered "Roll Over Beethoven"
  • Status Quo accept covered "You Never Can Tell" and "Carol"
  • ACÏŸDC have covered "School Days"
  • Bryan Adams, Keith Richards and Dave Edmunds accept covered "Run Rudolph Run"
  • Faces covered "Memphis, Tennessee"
  • David Bowie covered "Around and Around"
  • The Yardbirds covered "Guitar Boogie" as "Jeff's Boogie"
  • The Kinks covered "Too Much Monkey Business"
  • Buddy Holly covered "Brown Eyed Handsome Man"
  • The Grateful Dead have covered "Around and Around", "Promised Land", "Johnny B. Goode", and "Let information technology Stone"

On July 29, 2011, Berry was honored in a dedication of an eight-foot, in-motion Chuck Berry Statue in the Delmar Loop in St. Louis right across the street from Blueberry Hill. Drupe said, "Information technology's glorious--I practice appreciate information technology to the highest, no doubt about information technology. That sort of honor is seldom given out. But I don't deserve it."[101]

Rock critic Robert Christgau considers Drupe "the greatest of the rock and rollers",[102] and John Lennon said, "if you lot tried to give stone and gyre another name, you lot might call information technology 'Chuck Berry'."[103] Ted Nugent said, "If you don't know every Chuck Berry lick, you tin't play rock guitar."[104] Bob Dylan called Drupe "the Shakespeare of rock 'n' scroll".[105] Bruce Springsteen tweeted, "Chuck Berry was rock'south greatest practitioner, guitarist, and the greatest pure stone 'n' coil writer who ever lived."[106]

When asked what caused the explosion of the popularity of stone 'due north roll that took identify in the 1950s, with him and a handful of others, mainly him, Berry said, "Well, actually they begin to listen to information technology, y'all see, because certain stations played certain music. The music that we, the blacks, played, the cultures were and then far apart, we would take to take a play station in lodge to play it. The cultures begin to come together, and you begin to run across one another'due south vein of life, so the music came together."[107]

Chuck Berry wearing the Kennedy Heart Honors, 2000

Among the honors Berry received were the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 1984[108] and the Kennedy Centre Honors in 2000.[109] He was ranked seventh on Time mag'southward 2009 list of the 10 best electrical guitar players of all time.[110] On May 14, 2002, Berry was honored as one of the first BMI Icons at the 50th annual BMI Pop Awards. He was presented the honour along with BMI affiliates Bo Diddley and Little Richard.[111] In Baronial 2014, Berry was fabricated a laureate of the Polar Music Prize.[112]

Drupe is included in several of Rolling Stone magazine'south "Greatest of All Fourth dimension" lists. In September 2003, the mag ranked him number half-dozen in its list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time".[113] In Nov his compilation album The Great Twenty-Eight was ranked 21st in Rolling Stone 's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.[114] In March 2004, Berry was ranked fifth on the list of "The Immortals – The 100 Greatest Artists of All Fourth dimension".[nine] [115] In December 2004, six of his songs were included in "Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time": "Johnny B. Goode" (#vii), "Maybellene" (#18), "Roll Over Beethoven" (#97), "Rock and Roll Music" (#128), "Sweet Picayune Sixteen" (#272) and "Brown Eyed Handsome Man" (#374).[116] In June 2008, his song "Johnny B. Goode" was ranked first in the "100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time".[117]

The journalist Chuck Klosterman has argued that in 300 years Berry volition nonetheless be remembered equally the rock musician who most closely captured the essence of rock and roll.[118] Time mag stated, "There was no one like Elvis. But at that place was 'definitely' no one like Chuck Drupe."[119] Rolling Stone called him "the male parent of stone & roll" who "gave the music its sound and its attitude, fifty-fifty as he battled racism - and his ain misdeeds - all the style," reporting that Leonard Cohen said, "All of us are footnotes to the words of Chuck Drupe."[120] Kevin Strait, curator of the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, DC, said that Berry is "one of the primary sonic architects of rock and roll."[121]

According to Cleveland.com's Troy L. Smith, "Chuck Berry didn't invent rock and roll all by his lonesome. Merely he was the homo who took rhythm and dejection and transformed it into a new genre that would ever change popular music. Songs similar "Maybellene," "Johnny B. Goode," "Roll Over Beethoven" and "Rock and Roll Music" would showcase the core elements of what rock and gyre would get. The sound, the format and the mode were congenital on the music Berry created. To some extent, everyone who followed was a copycat".[122]
