at 2520 Goode Avenue (now Annie Malone Drive) in St. Louis,
MO. His mother, Martha, was qualified as a schoolteacher;
his father, Henry, was a contractor and deacon of the

Review about Chuck Berry
lyrical genius | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Memphis performed by Chuck Berry
Known for his guitar licks, it's sad that more people don't pay attention to the wonderful composition of the lyrics. You can "see" what's going on in the song due to the simple yet excellent discriptions. Don't forget about the big "TWIST" at the end. The entire song leads you to believe Marie is a lost love, but the last two lines show us the true relationship.
This is rock | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Memphis performed by Chuck Berry
Listen to this song, and you'll hear how Chuck Berry influenced rock music forever. You can hear artists ranging from the Rolling Stones and The Beatles to The Strokes and QOTSA in these four simple and quaint stanzas.
Mention Berry's "Cars" version | Reviewer: Markus
------ About the song Route 66 performed by Chuck Berry
Luv this tune - especially since I'm an "old cars & rock 'n' roll" fan! ;-)
I wonder though if there should be a side note at the end? On the Disney/Pixar "Cars" soundtrack, Chuck adds a line into the song. At the end, after the 2nd iteration of "get your kicks on route 66", Chuck sings, "and I'll meet you on route 62".
Super kool!! | Reviewer: Robert OZ
------ About the song Rock'n'Roll Music performed by Chuck Berry
This song is the total enhancement of the spirit of r'n'r. It pictures how things were about to change for the teens of the time and for the black community of upcoming artists. Great song from a GREAT singer.
Cars and girls | Reviewer: paolo redaelli
------ About the song No Particular Place To Go performed by Chuck Berry
An epic song of two american dreams: cars, and girls. A true american poet who learned all the world to sing rock'n'roll,in a simple way. Does humour belong in music? Yes, it is.
awesome song | Reviewer: Nick Hogan
