It all started here. In July 1955, "Maybellene" became Berry's first hit, as well as one of the first true rock & roll records. Like all such compositions, it's the bastard child of country and R&B, this one with a melody adapted from "Ida Red," a 1938 Western swing song from Bob Will and His Texas Playboys. Berry greatly overhauled it with his uni...
Flip "Maybellene" over and you'll find this lowdown blues grinder. A top 10 hit in its own right, "Hours" showcased the nuances in Berry's vocals, capturing equal parts longing and eroticism. The recording also gave a wide berth to pianist Johnnie Johnson, who used it to take a virtuoso turn.
Emboldened by the success of "Maybellene," Berry fired off one of the most hilarious — and ballsy — salvos in pop history: "Roll over Beethoven/Tell Tchaikovsky the news." The message was that old notions of "classical music" have now been replaced by a new sound. Berry still called it "rhythm and blues" in the lyrics, but any listener can tell he'...
The star did something complex and subversive with this 1956 B-side to "Too Much Monkey Business." In one lyric, he mentions the "whole lot of trouble" caused by a brown-eyed handsome man — i.e., a beautiful Black man like Berry who appealed to women of every race. It's the fear of miscegenation Berry tapped into here, treating the subject with sub...
Here, "Maybellene" gets another shout-out from the eagerly self-referential Berry. But there's more going on than mere brand extension: Berry turned the scenario in the earlier hit on its head. This time, he's the one who can't be caught in a speedy car. The galloping music captures his triumph. It's almost all vamp, elaborated by a burst of fast l...
In this salute to the style he helped pioneer, Berry makes special mention of the genre's "backbeat," the steady rhythm that never lets him (or the listener) down. There's a great example of it here, emphasized by Berry's even-toned vocal (in contrast to John Lennon's full-on shout in the Beatles' take). Johnson's piano eventually takes the lead, s...
In this transgressive classic, Berry offers his ode to a schoolgirl who gets dolled up in high heels and lipstick, setting off waves of lust from "Philadelphia, P.A." to "the Frisco Bay." The stop-start rhythm gives the song tension, while the madcap keyboards, manned here by Lafayette Leake, match the lyrics in outrageousness. The song became the ...
Berry got autobiographical in one of his most iconic songs, but changed one lyric from "colored boy" to "country boy" to avoid controversy. The guitar break remains one of the most quoted figures in rock, as does the single-note refrain. Together, they helped shoot the single to No. 8 on the pop chart, setting off a string of sequels from "Bye Bye ...
Originally the B-side to "Johnny B. Goode," this ditty worked off the same teasing riff, though the guitarist added an extended solo that showcased some of his subtlest twists. The way he bends the strings captures a wry leer as he pursues the elusive Carol.
Okay, so Chuck didn't write this one — Johnny Marks and Martin Brodie did. But Berry owned the song by turning his "Johnny B. Goode" riff into a holiday perennial, which would be covered by everyone from Foo Fighters to Sheryl Crow to Hanson.
