Chuck Berry At 100

The great Chuck Berry would have turned 100 in 2026, and we’re celebrating his life and work in this not-to-be-missed tribute issue of Vintage Rock Presents.

From his breakout hit on Chess Records through to his final years as an elder statesman, this issue offers up everything you need to know about the man they call ’the Father of Rock’n’Roll’. We explore Chuck’s pioneering guitar playing, his vast array of influences from country pickers to blues lickers, and his mastery of the live forum as the ultimate rock’n’roll showman.

Elsewhere in the issue, we take a detailed look at his first three albums – After School Sessions, One Dozen Berry’s and Chuck Berry On Top – and offer up our top 40 essential tracks. Also included are features on his lesser-known gems, behind-the-scenes tales of some of his most famous songs and the film that celebrated it all, Hail! Hail! Rock’n’Roll.

This item will be published on the 4th of December 2025 and any pre-orders will be despatched afterwards. For UK orders please allow up to 5 working days, up to 8 working days for European orders and up to 10 working days for international orders.
