Jun 16, 2017Chuck’s a wonderful piece of American music, and ultimately as enigmatic and elusive as the man who filed it on his way out the door.

Jun 12, 2017If Berry leaves the world with any last thoughts on Chuck, it’s that his vitality and relevance will continue to endure.

MojoJun 6, 2017Chuck sets an example for everyone else to follow. [Jul 2017, p.94]

UncutJun 6, 2017His final album--and first since 1979--not only demonstrates the durability of the musical format he pioneered but also proves his indefatigability as an entertainer. [Jul 2017, p.25]

Jun 7, 2017There are glosses on former glories--“Jamaica Moon” is a patois adaptation of “Havana Moon”, while “Lady B. Goode” involves gender-realignment of Chuck’s signature song--but they’re vastly outweighed by tranches of sloppy filler.
