Sobre el álbum

El álbum Hail! Hail! Rock 'N Roll es la banda sonora del aclamado documental del mismo nombre, que celebraba el 60 cumpleaños de Chuck Berry en 1986. Este disco es un proyecto monumental y un tributo a su inmensa figura. Para los conciertos que se documentan, Chuck Berry estuvo respaldado por una banda de ensueño, dirigida por Keith Richards de The Rolling Stones, su más devoto discípulo.

El evento contó con la participación de invitados de lujo como Eric Clapton, Etta James y Linda Ronstadt. Las interpretaciones de sus clásicos son de una calidad excepcional, llenas de respeto y admiración por el maestro. La producción de Keith Richards es impecable, buscando recrear el sonido auténtico de Chess Records.

'Hail! Hail! Rock 'N Roll' es mucho más que una simple banda sonora. Es una celebración de la historia del rock and roll, un emotivo encuentro entre el creador y sus más grandes alumnos. Es un documento esencial y conmovedor, el homenaje definitivo a uno de los padres fundadores de la música moderna.

  1. Maybellene2:37

    Letra

    Maybellene Maybellene, why can't you be true? Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true? You've started back doing the things you used to do. As I was motivatin' over the hill I saw Maybellene in a coup de ville. A Cadillac a-rollin' on the open road, Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford. The Cadillac doin' 'bout ninety-five, She's bumper to bumper rollin' side by side. Maybellene, why can't you be true? Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true? You've started back doing the things you used to do. Pink in the mirror on top of the hill, It's just like swallowin' up a medicine pill. First thing I saw that Cadillac grille Doin' a hundred and ten gallopin' over that hill. Offhill curve, a downhill stretch, Me and that Cadillac neck by neck. Maybellene, why can't you be true? Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true? You've started back doing the things you used to do. The Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford, The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more. It then got clody and it started to rain, I tooted my horn for a passin' lead The rain water blowin' all under my hood, I knew that was doin' my motor good. Maybellene, why can't you be true? Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true? You've started back doing the things you used to do. The motor cooled down, the heat went down And that's when I heard that highway sound. The Cadillac a-sittin' like a ton of lead A hundred and ten a half a mile ahead. The Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still And I caught Maybellene at the top of the hill. Maybellene, why can't you be true? Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true? You've started back doing the things you used to do.
  2. Around and Around2:24

    Letra

    They say the joint was rockin' A goin' 'round and round Yeah reelin' and a rockin' what a crazy sound Well they never stopped rockin' till the moon went down Oh it sounds so sweet I gotta take me a chance Rose out of my seat just had to dance Started movin' my feet well a clappin' my hands Well the joint started Rockin' going 'round and around Yeah reelin' and a rockin' what a crazy sound A well they never stopped rockin' till the moon went down Twelve o'clock Well the place as packed Front doors was locked Well the place was packed When the police knocked Both doors flew back But they kept on a Oh they kept on a Rockin' going 'round and around Yeah reelin' and a rockin' what a crazy sound A well they never stopped rockin' till the moon went down

    They're really rockin' Boston In Pittsburgh, P. A. Deep in the heart of Texas And 'round the Frisco Bay All over St. Louis And down in New Orleans All the cats want to dance with Sweet little sixteen Sweet little sixteen She's just got to have About half a million Framed autographs Her wallet filled with pictures She gets 'em one by one Become so excited Watch her, look at her run Oh mommy mommy Please may I go It's such a sight to see Somebody steal the show Oh daddy daddy I beg of you Whisper to mommy It's all right with you 'Cause they'll be rockin' on Bandstand In Philadelphia P.A.

  4. Brown Eyed Handsome Man2:28

    Letra

    Arrested on charges of unemployment, He was sitting in the witness stand The judge's wife called up the district attorney Said you free that brown eyed man You want your job you better free that brown eyed man Flying across the desert in a TWA, I saw a woman walking across the sand She been a-walkin' thirty miles en route to Bombay. To get a brown eyed handsome man Her destination was a brown eyed handsome man Way back in history three thousand years Back every since the world began There's been a whole lot of good women shed a tear For a brown eyed handsome man That's what the trouble was brown eyed handsome man Beautiful daughter couldn't make up her mind Between a doctor and a lawyer man Her mother told her daughter go out and find yourself A brown eyed handsome man That's what your daddy is a brown eyed handsome man Milo Venus was a beautiful lass She had the world in the palm of her hand But she lost both her arms in a wrestling match To get brown eyed handsome man She fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man Two, three count with nobody on He hit a high fly into the stand Rounding third he was headed for home It was a brown eyed handsome man That won the game; it was a brown eyed handsome man

    Long distance information, give me Memphis Tennessee Help me find the party trying to get in touch with me She could not leave her number, but I know who placed the call 'Cause my uncle took the message and he wrote it on the wall Help me, information, get in touch with my Marie She's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis Tennessee Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge Help me, information, more than that I cannot add Only that I miss her and all the fun we had But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee Last time I saw Marie she's waving me good-bye With hurry home drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye Marie is only six years old, information please Try to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee
  6. Too Much Monkey Business2:57

    Letra

    Runnin' to-and-fro - hard workin' at the mill. Never fail in the mail - yeah, come a rotten bill! Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business for me to be involved in! Salesman talkin' to me - tryin' to run me up a creek. Says you can buy now, gone try - you can pay me next week, ahh! Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business for me to be involved in! Blond have good looks - tryin' to get me hooked. Want me to marry - get a home - settle down - write a book! Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business for me to be involved in! Same thing every day - gettin' up, goin' to school. No need for me to complain - my objection's overruled, ahh! Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business for me to be involved in! Pay phone - something wrong - dime gone - will hold I ought to sue the operator for spinning me a tale- ahh! Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business for me to be involved in! Been to Yokohama - been fightin' in the war. Army bunk - Army chow - Army clothes - Army car, aah! Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business for me to be involved in! Workin' in the fillin' station - too many tasks. Wipe the windows - check the tires - check the oil - dollar gas! Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business. Don't want your botheration, get away, leave me! TOO MUCH MONKEY BUSINESS FOR ME!!

  8. Wee Wee Hours5:24

    Letra

    In the wee, wee hours That's when I think of you In the wee, wee hours That's when I think of you You say, but yet I wonder If your love was ever true In a wee little room I sit alone and think of you In a wee little room I sit alone and think of you I wonder if you still remember All the things we used to do One little song For a fading memory One little song For a fading memory Of the one I really love The only one for me
  9. Johnny B. Goode3:13

    Letra

    Deep down Louisiana close to New Orleans Way back up in the woods among the evergreens There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode Who never ever learned to read or write so well But he could play the guitar just like a ringing a bell Go go Go Johnny go Go Go Johnny go Go Go Johnny go Go Go Johnny go Go Johnny B. Goode He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track Oh, the engineers would see him sitting in the shade Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made People passing by they would stop and say Oh my that little country boy could play Go go Go Johnny go Go Go Johnny go Go Go Johnny go Go Go Johnny go Go Johnny B. Goode His mother told him "Someday you will be a man, And you will be the leader of a big old band. Many people coming from miles around To hear you play your music when the sun go down Maybe someday your name will be in lights Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight." Go go Go Johnny go Go go go Johnny go Go go go Johnny go Go go go Johnny go Go Johnny B. Goode
