Chuck Berry

Description

Exclusive version to uDiscover. Only 500 units made pressed on Chess blue vinyl. In honor of the late, great Chuck Berry, we are releasing a new Super Deluxe Edition of the original classic 2-LP compilation, which was ranked number 21 on Rolling Stone magazine’s 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time, the highest ranking hits compilation on that list.

This ‘SDE’ will include a total of four vinyl LPs and one colored vinyl EP plus a comprehensive booklet, as follows:

- The original 2-LP, 28-song set spotlighting Berry’s greatest hits – “Maybellene,” “Roll Over Beethoven,” “Johnny B. Goode,” “Rock And Roll Music,” Back In The USA,” “Sweet Little Sixteen” and 22 more.
- An additional 28 songs featuring:

  • On LP #3: More hits and B-sides not included on the original Great Twenty-Eight – Berry’s only No. 1 Pop hit, “My Ding-A-Ling”; “Wee Wee Hours,” the original flip side of “Maybellene” and a top 10 R&B hit on its own; “Too Pooped To Pop ‘Casey’,” the A-side of “Let It Rock” and top 40 Pop/top 20 R&B single; “No Money Down,” a top 10 R&B hit; “Vacation Time,” a non-LP B-side; and many more
  • On LP #4: Chuck Berry ‘Oh Yeah!: Live In Detroit,’ a thrilling, rare concert performance from 1963 in which Chuck is backed by Motown’s Funk Brothers band; it was previously available only in a limited box set and will make its vinyl debut 
  • On the EP: A bonus red-colored holiday 10-inch vinyl record, with Chuck’s holiday standard, “Run Rudolph Run” and “Merry Christmas Baby,” and two Christmas songs – “Spending Christmas” and “Christmas” – previously available only in a limited CD box set, also to be issued on vinyl for the first time

- A 12x12 book featuring reproductions of Chuck’s original LP graphics, images from the rare Chess EP series, and other photographs and memorabilia from the Chess archives, as well as a complete LP and singles discography
- Book will also contain a new essay by best-selling author and SiriusXM host Alan Light, complementing the original liner notes by Michael Lydon from The Great Twenty-Eight.
