Description

|
|
|
In 1986, Keith Richards invited a roster of great musicians to honor Chuck Berry during an evening of music at St. Louis's Fox Theatre in celebration of Berry's 60th birthday. The show included performances by Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, Linda Ronstadt, Etta James, and Julian Lennon, along with archival footage of an unforgettable duet by Chuck and John Lennon. Acclaimed director Taylor Hackford filmed the concert and mixes in interviews with rock 'n' roll pioneers Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, Roy Orbison, Bo Diddley, the Everly Brothers, and Willie Dixon. This special two-disc edition includes the original Dolby Stereo theatrical mix as well as a new, enhanced Dolby Digital 5.1 audio version plus more than two hours of bonus features. "While no individual can be said to have invented rock and roll, Chuck Berry comes the closest of any single figure to being the one who put all the essential pieces together."—Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
