Song Meaning & Facts: Johnny B Goode by Chuck Berry

Johnny B Goode is Chuck Berry's signature song. It's been covered by many prominent rock bands over the years, and has attributed numerous accolades. Part of the reason was, not just the brilliancy of the song itself, but due to the fact that Chuck Berry was phenomenal electric guitar player. No one covered ( cover songs ) Berry's songs for the white audience in the 50s, because none of them played the guitar like him. It's arguable, if it wasn't for Chuck Berry, there would be no Beatles, Rolling Stones or Pink Floyd!

What's Good...
