Album Description

Chuck Berry's 'Concerto in B Goode' is a landmark album that showcases the rock 'n' roll legend's ability to merge blues, rock, and psychedelia. Released in 1969 on Mercury Records, this iconic record features a mix of energetic tracks, including 'Good Looking Woman', 'My Woman', 'It's Too Dark In There', and 'Put Her Down'. The album's pièce de résistance, however, is the 18-minute title track, an extraordinary instrumental interpolation of Berry's classic themes, which takes up the entire second side of the record.

Produced by Berry himself, 'Concerto in B Goode' is a testament to the artist's innovative spirit and his willingness to experiment with new sounds. With its unique blend of rockabilly and rock 'n' roll, this album is a must-listen for fans of the genre. Clocking in at 34 minutes, 'Concerto in B Goode' is a concise yet powerful statement from one of music's most influential figures. As Chuck Berry's last record for Mercury, it serves as a fitting swan song, cementing his legacy as a true pioneer of rock music.
