“One Dozen Berrys” by Chuck Berry - album review

features in: Album Chart of 1958Album Chart of the Decade: 1950s

TJR says

As the title suggests, the second Chuck Berry album features 12 tracks penned by the man himself. “One Dozen Berrys” is a stylish offering from the house of Chess and features the likes of Willie Dixon on bass, Lafayette Leake on piano and Fred Below on drums. All Chicago bluesmen at heart, but, boy oh boy, they were Rock n Roll personified on the two lead singles “Sweet Little Sixteen” and “Rock And Roll Music”. The album touches on some of Chuck’s other interests - a little country and latin, and also features several fine bluesy instrumentals. Not quite as exhilarating as the debut, but a fine record all the same…
