    He's on the Voyager probe record. His music will be immortalized forever.

    Speaking of Chuck Berry, anyone else watch his sex tape where he farts in the hooker's mouth?

    Without Chuck Berry there would be no Beatles. No Stones. No guitar-laced rock and roll music.

    Elvis was the king of Rock, but Berry is the father. We wouldn't have the greatest music ever if it wasn't for his influence.

    Hail, hail.

    Did you ever wonder whose playing influenced Chuck Berry?

    Wonder no more. (This is her in the 60's, but she was playing these licks in the 40's.)

    So it wasn't Marty mcfly he was ripping off? Just ripping off older black acts like every other famous early rocknroller? Well at least we got the piss videos to keep his legend interesting.

    That's what pisses me off-- nobody gave Marvin the credit he deserves.

    Chuck Beringer is already dead, but Chuck Barron shouldn't be around sharp objects for awhile.

    Pete Hamilton, winner of the 1970 Daytona 500 dead at 74. Probably not the biggest name ever, but if you followed racing in that era, this was one of the big upsets of the time. Pete was a rookie driver that year and outfought David Pearson over the last ten laps or so to win. He later went on to win the two Talledega races that year for one of the best rookie seasons ever. Alas, he only won one other race after that rookie season.
