Was that Bobby Troupe?Route 66 is not a Chuck Berry song. He covered it.
Someone has to show it.....

Enjoy.
NOTE: Chuck Berry's only Number One single was his cover of "My Ding-A-Ling". My understanding is that his previous record companies never wanted to pay the fee for the survey.

Quite seriously it's a fact that my first musical memory is hearing Chuck Berry's first release in 1955 when I was 4 years old.....so I'm going to honk my own horn on this one.
My version of Maybellene played on a 1970 Guild F-212 and a 1930 Gibson L-5.
Enjoy!
