In 2026, the music world will celebrate the centenary of the birth of a true legend: Chuck Berry.
Born in 1926, universally recognized as the “Father of Rock and Roll,” Berry revolutionized modern music with his fusion of rhythm and blues, country guitar riffs, and a captivating stage presence. His style defined the sound of 1950s rock and inspired generations of artists, from The Beatles and The Rolling Stones to Jimi Hendrix and Bruce Springsteen.
To celebrate this extraordinary legacy, we present an exclusive live double LP: a historic recording of the concert performed by Chuck Berry & The Rocking Horse on March 29, 1972, at the BBC Television Theatre in London. Recorded and broadcast by the BBC, this live performance is an authentic testament to Berry’s energy and charisma on stage. In the early 2000s, the show was rebroadcast (in a shortened 60-minute version), confirming its historical and cultural significance.
In this performance, Berry is in dazzling form: he jokes with the audience, tells anecdotes, and dominates the stage with his unmistakable style. The setlist includes many of his most famous songs, as well as tributes to greats like Billy Cotton, Memphis Slim, and T-Bone Walker.
An unmissable edition for collectors, vinyl enthusiasts, and lovers of rock history: a sound document that captures the essence of a legend at the height of his artistic maturity. A timeless tribute to one of the greatest pioneers of modern music.
