Chuck Berry: Hail! Hail! Rock 'n' Roll
1986 in St. Louis Keith Richards puts together a pickup band for Chuck Berry's 60th birthday that includes Robert Cray, Joey Spampinato, Eric Clapton, himself, and long-time Berry pianist Johnnie Johnson. Berry plays his great rock tunes on stage with Etta James, Linda Ronstadt, and Julian Lennon. Bo Diddley, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bruce Springstein, the Everly Brothers, Roy Orbison, and others explore his abilities as a writer, lyricist, singer, musician, and entertainer in behind-the-scenes interviews. There's even a rehearsal, which is unusual for Berry. This portrayal of a master includes archival video from the early 1950s and a duet with John Lennon.
