5.0 out of 5 stars The true father of rock guitar.

Chuck Berry is the man!! And this book is great for learning to play many of his classic songs.
It's a great tool for beginners in figuring out how he played a lot of the famous guitar licks that everybody plays, and a nice thing for more advanced players in learning how the songs were played. It really helps you to appreciate that no one had done these things before him. Chuck Berry deserves more credit in Rock music than he will ever receive.

The book is good, as an introduction that teaches all the tricks in the musics and so it is very easy to know the play, yeat as you'll see, chuck berry did had good hands - that is the hard part of all musics in the books.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book, but I would have liked a couple of other songs
Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2014

This book is a great break down of Berry's specific songs, lick by lick, chord by chord, and it has Tab! For me, however, I was hoping for some different songs. I don't know how they pick these songs. I guess it's like many other guitar books: there are some big hits (which many people already learned anyway), some real oddballs (which many people don't care about or want to learn) and then a few of the ones that stick out that you can't find anywhere and you want to learn. For me, these are (I've been playing other things now, not this book yet, but it looks great and accurate): "Promised Land," "Let It Rock," "Little Queenie," "I'm Talking 'Bout You." And then there's the one or two real gems that you really wanted that aren't there. For me, it's "Nadine," and probably others. Still, it's the only book on Berry like this I've seen and I'm really looking forward to digging into it when I can. I love everything Berry did and will surely get into most, if not all, of this book.

The songs in it are:

Almost Grown
Around and Around
Back In The U.S.A.
Beautiful Delilah (did he even write that one - I'll have to check)
Carol
Guitar Boogie
I'm Talking About You
Johnny B. Goode
Let It Rock
Little Queenie
Maybellene
Memphis, Tennessee
No Particular Place to Go
The Promised Land
Roll Over, Beethoven
School Days (Ring! Ring! Goes the Bell)
Sweet Little Rock and Roller

All that said, it's a lot of songs, and a lot of good songs. I'd switch out a few for a few others to give 5 stars is all. Most people would give it 5. I'm just particular. Great book.

Being a huge Chuck Berry fan, I got chills strumming the chords of these beloved classics. A few songs do not have guitar tabs. I recommend getting a guitar tab stamp (available on Amazon) and make your own.

I had this book years ago, lost it during a move and just purchased again. The transcriptions are accurate and the book has a good mix of songs. There's a lot of material to break down, lick-by-lick, worth the price....
