I should add that this album is called The Best Of Chuck Berry, and that there are a lot of Chuck Berry compilations like this about, only with differing tracks, so don’t be surprised if the one you have, or might get is different. Now you may not have heard of Chuck Berry (I’d be surprised, though) but you will have heard his music, I mean, if your a fan of The Beatles, then you’ve heard Chuck’s music, if you like Buddy Holly or The Rolling Stones or The Manic Street Preachers, then you’ve heard Chuck’s music (lets face it, if you...
