Information on Chuck Berry.?
Chuck Berry is still alive. He never died (yet) Here is a timeline: Hope it helps! October 18, 1926: Charles ("Chuck") Edward Anderson Berry is born in St. Louis, Missouri. December 31, 1952: Needing a replacement for an ailing saxophonist for a New Year's Eve show, pianist/bandleader Johnnie Johnson calls a guitar-playing acquaintance named Chuck Berry. 1955: Chess releases Chuck Berry's "Maybelline" and Bo Diddley's "Bo Diddley." Diddley's single is released on Chess Record's subsidiary label, Checker. May 1, 1955: Chuck Berry signs with Chess Records, landing a contract on the strength of his songwriting. Label head Leonard Chess is particularly impressed with Berry's version of an old country & western song, "Ida Red," which he's rewritten as "Maybellene." May 21, 1955: Chuck Berry records "Maybellene" - an uptempo rewrite of the country-flavored "Ida Red" - with pianist Johnnie Johnson, bass player Willie Dixon and drummer Jasper Thomas. It is the first of Berry's many hits for Chess Records. 1955: Chuck Berry hits #2 on the R&B chart with the Chess single "Thirty Days." August 1, 1955: "Maybellene" by Chuck Berry reaches #5 on Billboard's Best Sellers chart and tops the R&B chart for eleven weeks.

May 1, 1957: Chuck Berry's first LP, After School Session, is released. It contains such classics as "School Day," "Too Much Monkey Business," "Brown Eyed Handsome Man" and "Havana Moon." Neither it nor its six successors-One Dozen Berrys, Berry Is On Top, Rockin' At the Hops, New Juke Box Hits, Chuck Berry Twist and More Chuck Berry-will make Billboard's album charts, as rock and roll is still largely a singles medium. May 13, 1957: Chuck Berry hits #1 on the R&B chart and #3 on the pop chart with "School Day" and #6 on the R&B chart and #8 (12/23) on the pop chart with "Rock and Roll Music." Both singles are released on Chess Records. September - November, 1957: Chuck Berry tours with the "Biggest Show of Stars for '57," sharing stages with Buddy Holly, the Drifters, Frankie Lymon & the Teenagers, the Everly Brothers, Clyde McPhatter and more.

It reaches #2 on Billboard's pop chart (held back from the top position by the Champs' "Tequila") and #1 on the R&B chart. March 17, 1958: Chuck Berry hits #1 on the R&B chart and #2 on the pop chart with "Sweet Little Sixteen" and #2 on the R&B chart and #8 (6/09) on the pop chart with "Johnny B. Goode."

Goode," written by Chuck Berry about pianist/sidekick Johnnie Johnson, makes the Top Ten. 1959: Chuck Berry hits #3 on the R&B chart and #32 (5/04) on the pop chart with the Chess single "Almost Grown." May 31, 1961: Berryland Amusement Park opens outside St. Louis. April 13, 1963: "Surfin' U.S.A.," the Beach Boys' thinly veiled rewrite of "Sweet Little Sixteen," enters the Top 40 at a time when Chuck Berry is serving a term in a federal penitentiary for violating the Mann Act. Berry later sues for and receives a co-writing credit on "Surfin' U.S.A." May 25, 1963: The Beach Boys score their first Top Ten hit with "Surfin' USA," Brian Wilson's reworking of Chuck Berry's "Sweet Little Sixteen."

One side was recorded in a London studio on February 5th with members of the Faces, while the other comprised material from a concert in Lanchester two days earlier, including "My Ding-a-Ling."

October 21, 1972: Chuck Berry's only #1 hit, the novelty song "My Ding-a-Ling," reaches the top of the charts.
