Quotekovach Quotejlowe QuoteHonkeyTonkFlash I'm just curious ow much actual guitar playing did Chuck do on this release? In recent years, his live work was horrible. I know he's a legend and all but still... Yes, I remember reading some of the reviews and it seemed the concerts were pretty wretched (according to the reviewers). Couldn't retire gracefully I guess. Pity it took s

The riffs are Chuck Berry 101 played to absolute perfection by, I assume, Morello. They're too clean and spot-on to be the Chuck in his eighties who essentially rambled through shows.

Quotelaf848 Instead of a Chuck Berry tribute album, why not link up in the studios with him and help him finish HIS album. "Chuck Berry and the Rolling Stones"...has a nice ring to it. I agree with you. When was the last time, Chuck Berry made a good album. Oh, around 1979. The new one is a Monster!

Quotemighty stork So Sam Smith is this years Grammy darling for his song "Stay With Me". Since it was ruled that Tom Petty's song "I Won't Back Down" was the underlining melody for Smith's song shouldn't Petty have been awarded also? I'm sure Tom and Jeff Lynn are more than happy to just collect their share of the royalties. It's just business..

With me not being very versed in British tax law I can only use USA Tax law as a gauge. Here, a business property can be depreciated overtime which means the property can actually be used as a tax write off whereas a personal home cannot. The UK has apparently figured out very wealthy people had been listing homes as a business property and figured it was time to address it. It's one of
