I forgot about that one! Very good and enjoyable version. Never knew it was recorded live. Cool bit of trivia/knowledge to have in the back of my brain the next time I hear it... I'm thinking that will be ... NOW!
Peace,

Just in case you didn't realise, it's not Decca but a bootleg........ [www.discogs.com]

When Bob Seger recorded You Never Can Tell / Cest La Vie, his comment was:
"We had a lot of fun doing this old Chuck Berry nugget. Entirely live. No overdubs".
That's what rock and roll is all about.

Let It Rock - Leeds
Bye Bye Johnny - L&G
Roll Over Beethoven - the Shindogs w/ Leon Russell (look it up on YouTube!!)
Little Queenie - Aus 73 version
Sweet Little 16 - Capital Theater, New Jersey 1978
As much as I love it, Route 66 (Got Live UK EP) is not a Chuck original.

If live versions are allowed, too, I'll have to give the 1972 Bye Bye Johnny live versions a mention here. What a band!

With all the Stones Chuck Berry covers they've done throughout the years, I've been thinking...
After the success of Blue and Lonesome's blues covers, it would be great for the Stones to do an early Rock and Roll covers album - not just Chuck Berry covers.
New recordings of semi-obscure classics from Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Carl Perkins, Gene Vincent, Fats Domino, and the list goes on.
And maybe some from artists that have been lost in the sands of time.
Rockin'and Rollin' with the Rolling Stones (Blast from the Past)
Might sound like a hokey idea to some, but an album of blues covers isn't really that different as it was a tribute to their heroes from the past.

So many worthy .
I'd have to say all of 'em.
Thing is nobody else has ever covered Chuck Berry quite like the Stones.
The covers are all different to Chuck's originals ...but they don't lose the "Roll" like almost all other cover versions do.

I'm surprised Around and Around from 1964 doesn't get more love. The Stones rock on this version, and its much better then Berry's original demo. As someone said in I believe the BBC thread, "the Stones were hot when they got Chess" and this version proves it.
