Berry, Chuck

Originally released on Chess (LP 1456) in March of 1961, this record is digitally remastered from original Chess masters. Most rock & roll albums recorded in the '50s were notorious for being nothing more than a few hit singles patched together with hastily recorded versions of pop standards. Though Chuck Berry recorded his fair share of run-of-the-mill pop standards, he was one of the few rock artists who managed to make consistently good albums during his '50s heyday. Like most albums of the day, NEW JUKE BOX HITS was based around two hit singles, "Sweet Little Sixteen" and I'm Talking About You." The rest of this album is made up of obscure (though wonderful) Berry-written tracks.
