"Rock, Rock, Rock!," the 1956 black-and-white film starring Cleveland disc jockey and "the King of Rock 'n' Roll" Alan Freed as himself, told the story of a teenage girl trying to gather the money she needs to buy a gown for an upcoming dance. A number of performances -- including those by Hall of Fame inductees Chuck Berry, LaVern Baker, the Flamingos, Frankie Lymon and the Teengers and the Moonglows -- move the picture along and provide its rock and roll soundtrack.
In this clip, Freed introduces the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum's 2012 American Music Masters honoree Chuck Berry, who delivers his signature moves over "You Can't Catch Me." rockhall.com/in...

Chuck Berry was the guy who the Beatles and Rolling Stones had in common and both groups loved what he did. Chuck was way ahead of his time as a lyricist and was such a great guitarist.
The way he was able to hook up the video camera in the women's toilet, no easy but chuck would do anything to watch a woman have a dump, pure class 👍
way ahead of any time as a lyricist imo ......you can't catch him as a lyricist
@redfox7490 You know, it's pretty petty to only see the bad in someone when they make a few mistakes, and overlook all the great things they did in their life entirely. We're all human beings, and we make mistakes. Stop being so vindictive and shunning people constantly, when, I guarantee you've done something just as bad, or maybe even worse at some point in your life. You may actually find joy one day if you can just learn to forgive.
Pimpin' women for decades. Ran brothels not for a few weeks or years, but decades.
@@huntergreen1767 Berry also stole songs from pianist Johnnie Johnson. You don't think that Berry wrote all of those songs by himself do you? Johnson was going to sue but time ran out. Listen to numerous songs and you'll notice that they are NOT guitar songs but piano songs - for example, "Roll Over Beethoven".
He is a legend in himself and this sample is the best example.
David Blues they also did a cover of one of his songs to so he isn’t just a legend he is a god.
Ghccoolj a cover???? Your a Fucking joke, like 12 covers
Chuck Berry is the one direct connection from Beatles to Stones. I hear Jagger in this song.
He was already a legend before Lennon ripped off (what they used to call 'sampling') his lyrics for Come Together. Don't need whitebread Beatles to validate great black music.
@@drewwolf533 you're right.
RIP Chuck, from a Beatles fan in Liverpool who (like the Beatles themselves) acknowledges the massive influence of Berry on their career. A Legend.
Chuck has ole' blacktop moving up quicky.... Beatles chose slowly
plagiarism the song come togheter with chug berry
@@jimlill4517 traffic moves much slower in England 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@elizabeth_7761 calling it plagiarism is a huge stretch. It sounds nothing like Come Together aside from the one line saying here come blacktop moving up slowly...
"If rock n roll was to be given a name that name would be chuck berry, hail hail rock n roll" -John lennon
Some of my favorite Chuck Berry footage......R.I.P.- Mr. Berry, the true king & father of rock 'n' roll......
Dancing while playing that guitar. Just amazing!
Well, in this video he was miming & lip-syncing to a record. Note: no guitar cord, no amp, no mic.
almost every rock star in history has done a remake of a chuck berry song. this guy influenced EVERYBODY!
Não consigo achar grandes similaridades entre a duas músicas.
You could also say he was influenced by the guitar playing of Sister Rosetta Tharpe. Little Richard was also influenced by her.
Chuck berry watched me having a big shite in the toilet, although he did not tell me he was secretly video taping me.
@@redfox7490 Shut your stupid ignorant mouth you asshole. How dare you make a stupid juvenile junior high comment on a Chuck Berry video, If you think you;re being funny, I have news for you YOU"RE NOT
@@jonnychingas5757 hey princess don't cry 🤗 dingle berry was a sick perv who video taped dozens of woman and had to pay them off 😘😂🤣🤣
Man, there's some songs that just take you back in time, this is one of them!
A hundred years from now, Chuck will be remembered as one of the greatest American songwriters of his day.
Chuck and Little Richards are modern Rock & Roll founders....
I doubt it. Do you remember the greatest songwriters of the 1920's? Don't cheat and look it up.
@@mikemartin5749 ye, i agree. He was pretty good but he aint bob dylan.
African American
@@kierawhite6264 American*
This man influenced so many of the biggest artists in history. Come Together!
Yes! He doesn't get enough credit for what he did!
Come together is a good example
Lennon fu accusato di plagio ma poi trovo' un accordo col produttore di Berry ... lavoro' su dei pezzi rock'n roll e nacque un' album. Grandi entrambi ...
He was good at transporting young girls across state lines for prostitution, his armed robbery charges, putting up cameras in the women's bathroom., swearing at his audience, forgetting his songs when playing live and walking off the stage. Could use some work on his melodies. What a guy.
@@samantacampa3857 Ci sono infatti casi ben piu' eclatanti e non mi sentirei mai di parlare di plagio in questo caso e non per difendere Lennon ma proprio oggettivamente.
Love the way he illustrates the story he's singing and playing. He's doing about 4 or 5 things at once here.
He is miming. That's how.
Dim Bulb He's not really singing and playing here.
that is so ..
it would eventually be called "lip-syncing" 😮
I can see why the kids went crazy for him. So much carisma and God given talent. I wish I would have been lucky enough to have seen the king Chuck Berry in concert. Keef and the Stones loved him so much
Fat Domino, Little Richard and Chuck Berry are all pioneers of Rock & Roll they will forever remain legends may all of them rest in peace.
Le plus incroyable, sa musique, ses riffs son rythme, son style ,son punch sont peut-être uniques dans toute nôtre galaxy ,il n y a peut-être q un seul chuck berry dans tout l univer et on a eu beaucoup de chance de l écouter et de le voir quand je pense à lui alors son Rock N Roll ça rend fou , merci Chuck ta musique est éternel...
John Lennon says : Rock and Roll is Chuck Berry!
Yes! Come Together!
He also said check for cameras if you where having a shite at Chucky's house 💩
Here come up flattop
Yeah he did , he said if they are gonna rename rock n roll, they should call it Chuck Berry
@@redfox7490 What? Is that a joke? I don't get it, if it is, but if it's not, I _must_ hear the explanation. Please, indulge me.
This looks super cool now! Imagine What it must have looked like in 1956....!!!!
Damn, coronavirus lockdown got me listenin to all types of music
You shouldve been done that
Lisyen to punk rock
Yes, time to explore music made before 2015. Amazing but it exists.
Use your right hand
Lol there’s only one reply that makes sense
Not only was Chuck Berry a bitchin' guitar player, and top-notch songwriter, he had the comedic timing of Charlie Chaplin, and Buster Keaton!
Yep a good day for berry was watching a woman have a dump in the toilet , sick pervert 😂😂😂
@@redfox7490 source?
@@bryanleigh6497 Google it, you simpleton
Under rated, fkn great
And he was quick tempered, There’s a video out where he hits Keith Richards as Eric Clapton watches on. Great!
P
I saw this movie when it came to town...I was amazed...I was from the countryside...heard the man but seeing him is so much more more.
Love this and love the fact that is influenced the Beatles Come Together, later Brilliantly covered by MJ. So Chuck, Paul, John and Michael thank you for these tracks that have kept us dancing and rocking over the last 70 years. 😊
@markjohnson7488Paul McCartney himself admited that. The intial Lennon's version reminded too much Chuck Berry's song so they had to slow it down. Look for the video and listen to Paul's words.
I had the anthology CD for many years and always skipped this song. One day I let it play through and heard the "here c'mon flat top" line...I never knew about the "Come Together" connection and it blew my mind. Rock and roll has a lot of surprises, especially with the internet and UA-cam revealing so much information.
it’s the way he actions out the whole somg while playing the guitar with ease. Something else
that's the real king of rock n roll!
Amen to that and I love Elvis too. Chuck was 1st though and his style is timeless. Watch Jimi Hendrix videos and you'll see some of his moves preformed a decade earlier by Chuck.
Hell, a couple of years ago I saw Slash duckwalking. As long as people are still playing electric guitars, Chuck's legacy will be there.
Angus Young of AC/DC also copied Chuck's moves.
gep015 angus young le ase un tributo
Dentsun4228: But the real queen is Carole King !!!
Chuck Berry i remember seeing this on TV in the 80's when i was a kid thinking this is some cool music, Chuck berry was amazing.
One of Chuck's great and one of his great b&w "sync'd" film performances - great moves in relation to the lyrics. And, yeah, that Gretsch Duo-Jet. RIP Our Man of Rock 'n' Roll. You were and are the greatest!
I love that Gretsch. Real clue that this is lip sync.
Chuck was the roots of every great rock artist, no doubt.
Elvis was donned the King of rock and roll, but chuck was the god of rock and roll
Adrian Walker no elvis is god of music
Chuck Berry, "Elvis simply was the greatest there ever was, is, or will ever be"
@@stefanjovanovic6840 The Beatles were bigger than Elvis.
Osama Bin Laden no way? No one is more well known than the Elvis but the beatles might be bigger in sales. But Elvis has most number 1 hits so No one come close to him sorry
@@stefanjovanovic6840 No. 1 hits? Really? Where did you look that up? Although it's undeniable that The Beatles ultimately loved Elvis Presley and he's the one that ignited the fire that built The Beatles. John Lennon himself have said that multiple times. But in terms of musical impact? Come on, man. Watch this breakdown by a well-renowned classical/movie composer about the impact of The Beatles in music and how they literally changed how we do music forever, combining the old and the new. Here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/ZQS91wVdvYc/v-deo.html
Sure could make you want to get up and dance. RIP, Chuck Berry, age 90.
This man is such a legend... unreal. Absolutely unreal.
You can visualize his storytelling and his music is the perfect complimentary soundtrack
The King of Rock n Roll
Elvis
Love it when ppl get on Wikipedia to read about Chuck Berry then post it like they are an early rock and roll historian. Been listening to him since I was a young kid. 67 yr old now and I have CB on my hifi now.🤣
How could anyone not dance uncontrollably to this?
I saw this in a rock movie when I was a bike riding kid...I couldn't believe that such talented people walked the planet along with me...they was like supernatural to this country boy.
He makes his guitar sound like a whole band is playing with him. Amazing.
One is, lol!
not really cos there is a band playing with him
@@bryanleigh6497 Right on! He was playin with a whole band. Peace, M.A.
😂😅The magic of playback!
My favorite is his 1956 wireless guitar
Still fresh after all these years. I love you Chuck Berry.
Even if you could catch him ..... you cant touch him !! Hes the best ever.
Way beyond a legend.
Rest in peace Chuck, thanks for giving us music, thanks for giving us the rock and roll.
Sweet Little Sixteen = Surfin USA = Back in the USSR = 100 other songs. That's how rock music works. The DNA of every rock song always goes back to the beginning.
Chuck Berry the greatest rock and roll musician that ever lived.
Nope! Not even close.
@@JimDeferiovery close.
@@Brother_Dre1900 You need to hear the hundreds of rock n roll and rockabilly songs from the 1950's. Berry was mainly rockabilly and he really wasn't special and he outright stole songs from black pianist Johnnie Johnson. Johnson sued but eventually the Statute of Limitations took effect and the lawsuit had to be dropped. For example, does "Roll Over Beethoven" sound like a piano song or a guitar song? I play guitar and to me both "Roll Over Beethoven" AND "Can't Catch Me" sound like a piano songs, and the same for other supposed Chuck Berry songs.
Why rockabilly people like Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis and a couple of others were exalted in the public eye and someone like Johnny Burnette wasn't doesn't seem to be about talent and merit but about money and whoever is willing to play along with the record companies.
There is NOTHING in history that is more rock n roll than THIS
I became a fan when I saw Chuck perform this in a movie in the fifties. It's a story in just a few minutes. Delightful.
Whether in music or life in general, I'll never understand why some people think they have to criticize one to elevate another. Chuck has his place in greatness & it can never be taken away from him. Like only a handful of other artists, everything that has followed was either directly or indirectly influenced by him.
Chuck influenced so many rockers and blues artists that followed him decades later. RIP chuck.
the grand grand father of rock & roll. One of the first rock & rollers.
The greatest rock n roller, he wrote, he played the greatest riffs ever
Mr. Rock'n'Roll.. can't get any better than this
Baby you're tuned to Rock and roll🎧 look at that duck walk just pure classic rip Chuck
Wow this performance have me smiling wow Mr Berry RIP
In the ongoing discussion of "You Can't Catch Me" and The Beatles' "Come Together", I was just enlightened that by clicking on the wheel above, between the closed caption and the mini-player options you can reduce the speed to 50% and listen to how close the two songs are.
Actually, yes!
im gonna do it now
RIP Chuck and God bless Long live true Rock and Roll.😎🤙
Chuck berry is the personification of rock and roll
Pioner and father of rock & roll. RIP mister Chuck roll.
What a charismatic performer

Man, the duck was just too cool for words. Chuck Berry had a great sense of humour.

This guy was so ahead of his time... look at those moves, listen to the music and the lyrics... 1956?? ...a real Master, the father of R'N'R.
Gotta love every second of this video.
Chuck Berry, un génie !!

The rock and roll is the God of the music.
the true king of Rock and Roll
Gone but never forgotten,March 18.2017 at 90 years of age R.I.P. CHUCK BERRY
This absolutely blows me away
Without Chuck Berry, there would have been no Beatles, Stones, or Elvis as we know them
To the Beatles fans coming here for the source of inspiration for Come Together. Here you go
1:10
thx
I think it was a bit exaggerated for that one line like how oasis mention yellow Submarine supersonic I think it was more of a reference I don’t think the song sounds that much alike
@@scarygarey3271 to be fair, the rhythm and cadence with which Lennon sang Come Together is also very similar to how Chuck Berry sings this song. There’s also the “juju” lyric near the end of this song that could also arguably be seen as having inspired John.
I dont hear any resemblance at all to "Come Together."
@@MegaAluchi Here come ol' blacktop
RIP the pioneer king rest now 👑
Love this man & song put out classics like this one.
Brilliant.
Damn...he was so cool...way ahead of his time!
he's so fantastic..
Legend
Quel chef d oeuvre
Now you are a star shining in the paradise. For ever in our souls, dear Chuck Berry.
Rest In Power Chuck.
First time watching Chuck Berry and man oh man ! 👏🏻 He’s so slick & high energy 😮 I love his white tux, his hair, his acting out the lyrics. And the song… I want to hear it remastered & through a great set of speakers ❤️🎵
The best
G O N E . . . . . . . like a coooooool breeze. RIP Chuck, thanks for the memories!
Not only was he a rock and roll godfather he was also a melodic rapper, Chuck was spitting/singing straight bars and it all rhymed 🔥✊🏾🙏🏾
LOVE CHUCK BERRY HE WAS WONDERFUL ❤
God damn the man is good . So much soul . Hell keep on rockin for me 🍺
Chuck definitely was a true showman and his music influenced so many bands.
A masterpiece by the Master. R.I.P.
Some if the greatest rock & roll, right there...
Those opening lyrics. Wow!
Imagine a world with only this version. How much did we loose? I think it's a lot.
Chuck was Rock N Roll the master
gone like a cool breeze. Rest in peace
I used to rush home from school to play this 78!
Chuck Berry the God of rock'n'roll!
Elvis
It's something deeper... Soul-level.😎
The Best ❤️
Is anybody interested in Bowie, Beatles etc? This is the king of rock and roll doing one of the greatest songs ever. Concentrate on Chuck Berry. Forget the rest. Hail hail rock and roll!
I like John Lennon singing rock n roll songs in the Beatles,
