RIP CHUCK BERRY
Sad but honored to have been invited to the Chuck Berry Memorial event. The open casket was on view, but I couldn't bear looking. It would break my heart.
For those of you too young to know, Chuck Berry was one of the founding fathers of rock 'n' roll and the architect of rock guitar playing.
Without Chuck Berry, you wouldn't have had the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix and many more.
".. Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news.." buckle your knees, and bow your head.
The Great Chuck Berry is passing by...
- Gene Simmons
