Now that was a very interesting article. Richard, Thanks for sharing that article.
 
I thought Chuck wrote the song after a phone call from his cousin Marvin, after Marvin cut his finger, and Marty had to step in for him at the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance, finally ending his mother's infatuation for him and saving his future. :unsure:
 
Chuck Berry's career was based on repackaging Sister Rosetta Tharpe's music for a rock and roll audience. People give him credit as an original for a lot of stuff he simply copied from her. Rosetta Tharp is the godmother of guitar rock. Chuck Berry was her descendant. Because she mostly played to black gospel audiences, she was largely unknown outside of the black community.

Her induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2018 was long, long overdue.
