Today we received the sad news that Chuck Berry had passed away. Chuck is probably the single greatest figure in rock music. Most of the great bands like AC/DC, The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith and The Beatles wouldn't be around without Chuck. I had always hoped to see Chuck in concert. I did come close in 2012 when he was scheduled to perform at the Winter Dance Party tribute. But he dropped out at the last minute and was replaced with Pat Boone. The great 28 is perhaps one of my favorite albums easily in the top ten. Now with Chucks passing that leaves only three of the pioneers left. Fats, Jerry Lee and Little Richard.
