Chuck Berry // Berry Is On Top (180 Gram Red Vinyl)

There will never be another Chuck Berry nor anyone in the music industry who could influence generations of aspiring rock ’n rollers like Chuck has.

Introduced to Chess Records by fellow blues rocker Muddy Waters, Chuck Berry hit a goldmine immediately with his arsenal of tunes, culminating in his masterwork “Berry Is On Top.” Berry roars through a treasure trove of 12 rockers, making this one of the most important albums of all time, which featured gems like “Johnny B. Goode” “Roll Over Beethoven” “Carol” “Maybellene” & “Little Queenie”.

He opened the doors for millions of music fans around the world to enjoy rock & blues, making him one of the first pioneers of the popular recording business that we all enjoy to this day.
