Chuck Berry - Rendez-vous

BERRY, CHUCK

essential LP edition compiles 20 of Chuck Berry's most emblematic and celebratedsongs, taped by the Chess label between 1955 and 1961. These recordings helpeddefine the exact nature of early rock & roll.All-time classics such as Berry's car songs ("Maybellene"), his calculated and carefullycrafted instant smashes for the 1950s teenage market ("Reelin' and Rockin'," "SweetLittle Sixteen," "School Day"), and his celebrations of the music itself ("Rock and RollMusic," "Johnny B. Goode," "Roll Over Beethoven"), are some of the greatest rock tunesever written. Take the aforementioned "Johnny B. Goode" specifically - the intro aloneis arguably one of the most iconic pieces of music ever recorded, and the subsequenthand in hand energy of both the vocal and the instrumentation not only form a brilliantlyhook throughout the track, but also create something uniquely Chuck Berry.This material will convince even the skeptics of Berry's brilliance. All of these originalgems -which have been brilliantly remastered to achieve the most pristine sound - aresimple two-and-a-half-minute songs that convey all the sheer power and emotion of rock& roll. Enjoy!
