In my opinion the very best Chuck Berry covers ever made are done live by the Stones:Little Queenie and Carol on Get Yer YaYa's Out, Let It Rock Leeds 1971, Bye Bye Johnny DVD Ladies and Gentlemen The Rolling Stones, and Around and Around on Love You Live.
Chuck's songs fit them perfectly well.I hope they will do a Chuck Berry song during their european tour. Do you agree?

That would be great as long as Chuck himself don't try to play or sing them.

It's already discussed on this forum: He's really an old man now.

Let's stick to the topic then.

What was the last time they did a Chuck Berry song? Little Queenie in 1998? That was not as powerful as their CB covers 20 years earlier.

This is great, but I don't know if the song would work for the Stones:

Any CB cover The Stones would do would make people (I mean fans - so at least the FOS at any stadium) go nuts I am sure. If I could choose, it would be Little Queenie.

What I really would like to hear is You can´t catch me, with the original Keith solo (wonder if he could play it again today?); Chuck´s original doesn´t include a guitar solo so this is something special.

YES YES YES!

I can say with complete and total honesty that there is nothing better than the Stones doing Chuck Berry songs.

























And with that I am off to watch Live In Texas and have a cigar and a pale ale!

They did Little Queenie at Echoplex club in 2013.
