daviebee Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 If it wasn't for him there'd be no Angus Young! A true legend. A guy I know has a dollar bill autographed by him. It's probably just become a pension plan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil r Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Shuffled off the ding-a-ling. Legend. Cant be many guitarists with their work floating around in space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't believe he was still treading the boards at the grand old age of 60! Anyway, you wrote the book man, rock in peace... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stapes Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 There's a great story about Springsteen playing as his back up band in the early '70s which I mention in my book. In turn this article cites me: https://unionavenue706.wordpress.com/2013/10/17/let-it-rock-the-music-of-chuck-berry-and-bruce-springsteen/amp/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just listening to that in the car there - 6 Music is superb - would have been a great loss if the plan to axe it had gone ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tuned in - god how old that sounds - expecting to hear the Glasgow playlist that was scheduled but ended up listening to the whole show, excellent stuff.

Stapes Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) Wasn't aware one of my friends actually played with Berry in 1980. Here's the story. http://www.app.com/story/entertainment/music/2017/03/21/night-chuck-berry-played-fountain-casino-aberdeen/99452374/ Edited March 21, 2017 by Stapes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
