Chuck Berry: Hail! Hail! Rock 'n' Roll
1986, St. Louis Keith Richards puts together a pickup band for Chuck Berry's 60th birthday that includes Robert Cray, Joey Spampinato, Eric Clapton, himself, and long-time Berry pianist Johnnie Johnson. Berry delivers his great rock tunes with the help of Etta James, Linda Ronstadt, and Julian Lennon. Bo Diddley, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bruce Springstein, the Everly Brothers, Roy Orbison, and others spoke about his abilities as a writer, lyricist, singer, musician, and entertainer in behind-the-scenes interviews. Berry even gets to have a rehearsal, which is unusual for him. This picture of a master includes early 1950s archival video and a duet with John Lennon.
