Johnny B Goode is gone: Rock'n'roll legend Chuck Berry has died at 90Other The much-loved US musician has died in St Louis, Missouri, aged 90. Chuck Berry, who duck-walked his way into the pantheon of rock'n'roll as one of its most influential guitarists, died on Saturday at his Missouri home. "If you tried to give rock'n'roll another name," Lennon once said, "you might call it 'Chuck Berry'." Michael Ochs Archives Chuck Berry performs on The Big Beat, which was recorded in New York in 1959. He toured with disc jockey Alan Freed's 1957 rock-and-roll revue and appeared in teen-centric movies including Rock, Rock, Rock!
