I think it was George Thorogood who, when asked why he never wrote any of his own songs, replied, 'why should I - Chuck Berry already wrote 'em all'. Of the two major founders of rock 'n roll, Elvis was a kind hell performer, but Chuck Berry came close on that measure and was also an incredible songwriter and guitarist, which Elvis wasn't in either case.
In that I have no particular place to go, I think I'll stream some Chuck...
RIP sir. Can't be too torn up when a rock star dies at home at age 90, but kind of sad nonetheless...
