Chuck Berry: "Chuck"

[moe]

His last album is coming out in June. Has anyone heard any cuts from it yet?

Hey moe, I haven't heard any cuts from the album, but your thread intrigued me and made me look up it up online!! Apparently Chuck is made up of recordings done between 1991 and 2014. It is Chuck Berry's first album since 2002's Chuck Berry - In Concert.

I believe two singles have already been released from Chuck, entitled "Big Boys" and "Wonderful Woman", in March and April of 2017, respectively. [[Which means we can listen to them now, right!!? I'll post videos shortly ;))

And, of course, the album is set to be released on June 9, 2017, according to Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_[[Chuck_Berry_album)

This is absolutely fascinating...

That cut is probably enough for me to put it on my "must have" list.

I pre-ordered it after hearing these cuts. Apparently "Wonderful Woman" is about his wife of 68 years. And I think that's Gary Clarke, Jr on the track with him. Not sure about Big Boys. I think Chuck's kids may have played on the album, too.
