    This place and history is beautiful and beautifully shot and edited! It's like a film for someone I 've been a fan of since I was a kid.. even got in trouble singing My Ding A Ling in elementary school lol! At least not at home because they knew it and that I listened to my grandma's Chuck and Elvis records. 😀 Great collection brings back so many memories.. wow.😊 Thank you all!

    Wow guys, I thought your video about Robert Johnson was great but this one tops them all. I was very young hearing Chuck Berry on my sister turntable and all the other greats from that era. Chess Records, blues and rock n roll, so many memories for me with this video. Joe Edwards has met the most important people in the world that literary change music, first man on the moon, etc., are you kidding me !!!! Bravo on this video !!! P.S. A&W Root Beer is not to bad either but I don't know if they are around anymore.

Cant stand ed Sheerans music but I give him that.

    Chuck berry was a flawed person with a lot of demons but man, he sure did leave a mark eh?
    The duck room is one of my favorite places for music as a patron and a musician. The green room is just setup for people who've been on the road a while with showers and everything! Now, I might be a bit camera shy in there but if I were a stinky drummer after weeks in a van, i'd be on it like jam on toast.
    Great sound, great staff, HEAVY POURS, and the burgers are some of the best in the city as long as they aren't swamped. Wish delmar still had the local places it used to when i was growing up, all the money from WashU def. changed the area for better and worse. Also a great street for boba tea, there's boba within spitting distance no matter where you are on the strip! What a long way they've come from nothing but biker bars and tattoo shops haha

    Great video! Joe Edwards, having worked with him on a couple past projects is a super nice guy who happens to own just about all the Delmar Loop! It's awesome you included him in this video, as he'll tell you just about anything you want to know. His celebrity gallery is something else. I saw Chuck 3 times in the Duck Room, and twice at The Pageant down the road. Was very lucky to shake his hand and say a few words to him. In his later years, Mr. Berry was spotted at local casinos just chilling and playing slots. He was like an everyday guy who just happened to have songs covered by the Beatles, Beach Boys, the Dead and others. Next time you're in STL, I'll be watching for you. Glad you enjoyed your stay in the city.
