Chuck Berry played two sets at B.B. King's Blues Club in Times Square, NYC on 12/31/10. This video from the early set catches most of Johnny B. Goode.
It was great to see him up there, still playing these songs, some of them over 50 years old. He was larger than life. I got some photos of the show too, which you can see at my website, www.hellerhound.com, in the clients section, with the password "Berry"

  • Yeah, but he still played for over an hour and sounded and looked great! (I mean, my grandmom's 84 and she can't play a hollow-body gibson nearly that well.. ;)

    Let's hope he gets well soon, and that we all have another chance to see him play sometime..

  • This is awful - beyond belief. Chuck is done for. No more ability to play, memory mostly shot. Let him fucking go....

  • Such a great groove. Stones eat your heart out!

  • I really wanted to be there. This goes so far beyond his ability to perform like a young man. He cut his set short that night. It could have been my last chance.

  • It was really a great performance on Johnny B. Goode. I hope he will have a tour in Sweden 2011. Thank you for the video!
