I got hold of The Best of Chuck Berry not so long ago as I love 'Johnny B Goode'
Can't say any of the other songs really do it for me although 'Maybelline' is quite good.
Top 5 of The Velvet Underground may be OK but I'd forget the others Henry.0 -

Sounds good. Hope there is some Cajun food.0 -
Didn't he do "Too much monkey business" too? Wee wee hours is good too.
Inspired me to play when discovering some of the old greats. What name did he write under? Didn't he write other stuff too or am I think of someone else - don't have the CD case handy.
Didn't he get done for having cameras in the Ladies in his night club??
:D
Ok just found this as a guide.
