July 20, 20187 yr heh. I'm a huge Preston fan myself. What a fucking talent. Never had a lesson. Just a natural, and cool as shit too. It's a shame he had to be closeted for most of his life.

July 25, 20187 yr No, that picture shows a Hammond being played by a Reggie As opposed to Reggie Hammond
July 27, 20187 yr In honor of Mick's 75th birthday... Just finished Keef's autobiography, Life, and he talks about the moment he met Chuck, one of his idols, as being a real letdown. Says Chuck bigtimed them. Acted like a prick. I wonder if he and Mick are talking about farts in that pic...
July 27, 20187 yr Chuck bigtimed everybody. I recorded a local drummer many years ago who got tabbed to back up Chuck at Aquafest or some such. As per usual, no rehearsal, and as per usual, total screaming at the band after the show, threatening not to pay them, etc.

As per usual, no rehearsal, and as per usual, total screaming at the band after the show, threatening not to pay them, etc. Keith Richards discovered Johnnie Johnson (piano) did not receive songwriting credits and encouraged Johnson to sue. Irreparably damaging the Berry / Johnson relationship. Then there was the backstage punch incident. A young Bruce Springsteen played backup for Berry and said the tuning was way out of whack. Impossible to follow. Two seats on an airplane. One for Chuck, one for the guitar. Cash only, paid in advance before walking onstage. Little wonder he did time for tax evasion. And there was that pervy toilet and transporting underage girl thing.
July 27, 20187 yr Aretha subscribed to the cash only, up front policy too. She's put the money in her purse and put the purse on the piano. I can't blame her.

July 29, 20187 yr Start around 3:30 to hear Nils describe how Chuck Berry intentionally made an absolute shambles of a song just to embarrass an A-list backup band including Bruce, most of the E Street Band, Chrissie Hynde, GE Smith and others during a RnR HOF anniversary concert in the early '90s.
