Chuck Berry - Let It Rock


This is a live performance by Chuck Berry, he performs the rock 'n' roll classic "Let It Rock". The song was originally released in 1960 on Berry's alum "Rockin' at the Hops", and it was only a b-side to the single "Too Pooped to Pop".
This however became more famous than the a-side. Probably thanks to other artists covering it, and its resemblance to Berry's most famous tune "Johnny B. Goode". It has been covered by The Rolling Stones, The Yardbirds, Bob Seger and Motörhead to name a few. It is perhaps one of Berry's most covered songs, next to "Johnny B. Goode".
I've included a performance by Motörhead from The Late Show with David Letterman beneath, because I think they do a pretty well job with it.
It's a great song, and a great performance by both acts.


Enjoy ; )
