If Chuck Berry were white he would have been called the king.

As far as I'm concerned he IS the king.

1. He wrote his own songs
2. The most influential guitar player around (till Hendrix)
3. He just kicked ass whenever he played

 

[L3ggy]

yeah i know but if he were white most people who call him the king.

 

[Elwood70]
