What can be said about Chuck Berry that hasn't been said before? The greatest rock'n'roll poet has been celebrated tons of times, in books, records, essays; his music has influenced several artists' generations, his guitar style mimicked thousands of times… rock'n'roll cannot be conceived without Chuck Berry, the artist that probably best represents the genre's holy trinity: musician, singer and composer, all in one and at the same level of proficiency.

Far from pretending to compile the greatest hits of Chuck Berry, the box that you are holding in your hands tries to give you a new perspective of what Chuck Berry's music meant during his beginnings at Chess Records. In the 6 EPs included in this collection you will find alternative takes of some of his greatest hits together with some of his less known songs, some of which were part of his LPs and some others that have remained unpublished in vinyl until today. To finish off we have included the two songs that integrated The Ecuadors' single - the vocal band that accompanied Berry in several of his hits and for whom Chuck contributed as guitarist for their only single for Argo, Chess subsidiary.

Unusual Chuck Berry, play it and enjoy!
