Died today at 90. He was no doubt one of the founding fathers of rock music -- a true blues man early on, but most definitely rock and roll later. I hope he's not on this route:

Re: RIP Chuck Berry
Real Rock'n Roll was the first (and only) kind of music I liked as a little boy (everything else gradually came later). And it had to be Chuck Berry style Rock'n Roll, no rockabilly or some other watered down variant. Hail Hail Rock'n Roll!

Re: RIP Chuck Berry
Whenever I think of Chuck Berry, I think of SNLs reporting on space aliens' response to the recordings on the Voyager spacecraft:
He's one for the ages.
