THE 1000 BEST SONGS IN THE WORLD EVER.
548-Chuck Berry-Maybellene.
1955-Has never charted in the UK.
Best Bit-At 1.06.After doing my research,it appears that ‘Back To The Future’ got their facts wrong.
This is one of the most influential songs in the development of Rock music.Chuck Berry had heard the 1938 song ‘Ida Red’ by Bob Wills on the radio and that gave him the inspiration for this song.
Berry refined and developed Rhythm and Blues into the major elements that made Rock ‘N’ Roll distinctive.Writing lyrics that focused on teen life and consumerism and developing a music style that included guitar solos and showmanship.
Many Pop stars have recorded all their best work by the age of 29,but this was the age that Chuck Berry began his illustrious career.
‘Oh Maybellene why can’t you be true you’ve started back doing the things you used to do.’
