Chuck Berry--A Duck Walkin' Guitar Legend

Advantages: Great rock 'n roll by a guitar legend
Disadvantages: None

distortion that made his sound distinctive--putting the amp into overdrive created a guitar sound that would be recreated in the future by pedals and other effects, but he was the first to do it. Many great guitarists would come to emulate his licks and his sounds, and his songs were covered by so many artists that it's impossible to list them all. Suffice it to say that his influence was pervasive, to say the least. Chuck Berry-The Great Twenty-Eight is a collection of some of his best music from the period covering 1955 through 1965. It's probably the ultimate "greatest hits" collection, but I'm probably exaggarating a little--it's just that most of his songs are so recognizable and ingrained in our collective conciousness that they all seem like smash hits. Whatever the case, this collection defines the music of Chuck Berry and gives ...

Forget Elvis Chucks The God

Advantages: Great Timeless Music
Disadvantages: none

, and makes me feel that little bit better I love, and that pretty much sums up Rock ‘n Roll. So I have amounted a number of ‘Best of......’ collections over the years, such as Jerry Lee-Lewis, Elvis, Buddy Holly, Billy Haley, Little Richard, and soon Carl Perkins (the man behind ‘Blue Suede Shoes’), and although Little Richard may have created Rock ‘n Roll and Elivs may have dressed it up well, and they’ve all had great hit songs, in my opinion, Chuck’s the one who really made it. So Who Is Chuck Berry? Charles Edward Anderson Berry was born on the 18th October 1926 in San Jose, California, America, he learnt to play the guitar and was nearly 30 when he released his first single, and that was in 1955, previously, at the age of 18, he’d spent some time in prison, for armed robbery, later ...

Review of Very Best Of Chuck Berry, The - Chuck Berry

Creative EP-630

Advantages: Simply Excellent
Disadvantages: None

Creative EP-630 I have recently tried creative EP-630 and it cost a quarter of a similar pair of Bose phones that I'd normally go for. Ordering from their website couldn't be easier and the site is locked for security of payments. The ear pads are rubber and far more comfortable to the ears. The design is by far more ergonomically and causes less stress to the ears. The sound is by far the real selling point however and is a stunning and enhanced listening pleasure. The volume on my MP3 is extraordinarily loud but the quality does not fall away and wobble/ scratchiness are simply not there, even at full volume. The bass tones are very deep and you made need to lighten them up with a little more treble. The sound in general is very crisp. The cord is very long which is a bonus as I run on road and on the treadmill ...
