    We start the only way we could, with a trip back to the summer of 1955 and the song that introduced Chuck to America and the world. As he later explained, it evolved from a song he heard on the radio in the early 1950s (on St.Louis country station KMOX, to be precise). Once Leonard Chess of Chess Recordsasked Berry to change the lyrics and make it ...

    September 1956 brought one of several early Chuck singles that mysteriously failed to make the American bestsellers. Chess catalog number 1635 featured “Brown Eyed Handsome Man” and, as the top side, the irresistible “Too Much Monkey Business,” another early example of his sparking wordplay. It’s essentially a list of all the things in his life tha...

    Berry’s genius was to tap into the aspirations and anxieties of teenage life, even as he was already moving into his 30s when he became a star. “School Day” was one of numerous staples to describe the struggles of studying hard and hoping to pass when all you really wanted to do was listen to great music. Drop the coin right into the slot…

    Based, like just about all of Chuck’s superbly-described scenarios, on a true story. He once saw a teenage girl running around backstage at a multi-artist rock’n’roll bill he was on, collecting autographs like her life depended on it. He was also smart enough to know that the more cities you mention in a lyric, the more likely you were to get playe...

    Never a US hit in its own right, tucked away on the B-side of 1959’s “Back in the U.S.A.,” “Memphis, Tennessee” is a song with a gripping narrative and surprise punchline, but also an astute observation about marital strife and broken homes. “When I wrote ‘Memphis,’” he said, “I had known couples who had divorced and the tragedies of the children.”

    A natural humorist, Chuck knew how to reel ’em in with his rocking rhythms and mesmerizing guitar licks, and keep ’em waiting until the end to find out what happened in the storyline. On this occasion, a romantic scene on a moonlit night runs into trouble with a stubborn safety belt. Teen angst again, and pure genius.

    To other writers, it would just be another boy-sees-girl story, but with Chuck in charge, we’re hanging on every word. At the tail-end of the 1950s, he was still going strong with engrossing story songs such as this one about the girl standing by the record machine. The sheer rhythm and rhyming brilliance of the verses (“She’s in the mood, no need ...

    Scene: a teenage wedding of Pierre and his mademoiselle. In less than three minutes, Chuck tells their whole story, right down to the Roebuck sale from which they furnished their apartment to the records on their hi-fi and the 1953 “souped-up jitney” they drive to Orleans for their anniversary. It was pure pop poetry.

    In a 2020 interview, Chuck’s son Charles Berry marveled at his dad’s way with words. “His ability to communicate a message was just outstanding,” he said. “That really comes from the background that my dad was first and foremost a poet, and he learned his poetry skills from his father. So he was able to adapt his poetry, which really required the c...

    As Beatlemania gripped the planet, the next generation of teenagers heard Chuck for the first time, already some seven or eight years after he had helped create the rock’n’roll template. John, Paul, George and Ringo always wore their love of Chuck on their sleeve, first giving “Roll Over Beethoven” back to the world as Track 1, Side 2 of their seco...
