If there’s one song that represents what rock and roll is all about its “Johnny B. Goode” by Chuck Berry. The song really is about its creator. Also, the lyric in the song is “There was a country boy named Johnny B. Goode.” Chuck Berry wrote the original lyric as “There was a colored boy named Johnny B. Goode.” He knew to get radio airplay back in the late 50s, he would have to change colored to country. Another hint that makes the song autobiographical is that Chuck Berry was born at 2520 Goode Avenue in St. Louis. The original 45 on Chess Records is worth up to $40.00. On a 78, the value can jump to $200.00. Both versions are shown here.
