Saturday Stuff

RIP Charles Edward Anderson Berry, truly a founding father of rock n’ roll…hard to overstate his importance, through the exquisite integration of his musicianship with lyrics that completely defined what was, at that time, the emerging youth culture in this country…



…and I liked this interview from a few years back with Berry and President Carter…



...I plan to feature his timeless music all week, including this lesser-known tune...



…along with this from his tribute film (and here is another passing of note – read many of his columns for years in the Evening Bulletin in these parts).



Update 3/19/17: And yet another great of the Fourth Estate departs.
