5.0 out of 5 stars Chuck Berry a great - and trouble, 24 Sep 2006
By S J Buck (Kent, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Chuck Berry: Hail! Hail! Rock N' Roll [DVD] [1987] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
This concert was put on to celebrate Chuck Berry's 60th birthday in 1986 and the show itself is marvellous. There is a parade of special guests including Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, Etta James, Julian Lennon and Linda Ronstadt. Not to mention Chuck Berry's longtime Piano player Johnny Johnson and a few other well known musicians (Chuck Lavell for example). The renditions of the Chuck Berry songs are great and virtually all the classics are performed. Keith Richards who was the musical director for the show, has the best moment in the concert when Chuck (in the middle of a song) says lets change key. Keith tells Chuck in no uncertain terms its not going to happen!

However what makes this film so special is what we learn about Chuck Berry the man, rather than the musician. Throughout the film stories are told, and confirmed by Chuck himself of his refusal to play a gig unless he is paid in cash. In fact he also refused to take part in any of the documentary scenes unless he was paid in cash each day. There are scenes with the film crew waiting on day 1 of the shoot and no Chuck because no cash! Theres a whole load of marvellous stories involving among others Bruce Springsteen (who with an early incarnation of the E Street band used to back Chuck) and Jerry Lee Lewis.

The bonus disc is equally good with a lot of great rehearsal material featuring most of the artists mentioned above. These were done with multiple cameras so the DVD has a multi-screen format and you can choose to watch all the views on a split screen or select one and focus on a particular musician.

Sadly this isn't avialable on region 2. However if you have a multi-region player this is a fabulous buy. Note there is also a 4 DVD version as well - worth considering!

5.0 out of 5 stars Keith Richards face!, 21 Mar 2008
By Mj Belcher "trigsbroom" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This film is worth it just for the expression on Keith Richard's face after a disagreement over how to play the intro to one of Chuck Berry's songs, but worth it anyway for the great entertainment, and great music!

By M. Kaupe (Leeds, England) - See all my reviews

This box set not only features an insightful film about Chuck Berry, but also includes long interviews with other major Rock n Roll legends, such as Sam Phillips, Jerry Lee & Little Richard. A priceless purchase !
