Chuck Berry

Record Store Day has announced its Black Friday 2020 exclusive titles which will be available in independent record stores on Friday, November 27 (the day after Thanksgiving)...

Just about every area of recorded music was hit by the fire, from jazz to punk to cabaret to comedy, new wave, historical speeches, metal, hip hop, you name it.

It was "the biggest disaster in the history of the music business" but went unreported for over 10 years. Losses included masters from everyone from John Coltrane and Chuck Berry to Nirvana and Snoop Dogg.

'Play It Loud: Instruments of Rock and Roll' will bring over 130 iconic instruments, 40 vintage posters, as well as stage costumes and videos to The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

It's the finale for this year's Lincoln Center Out of Doors festival, and it also features a tribute to Chuck Berry, Memphis soul legened Don Berry, Amanda Shires, roots supergroup Traveller, and more. And it's free.

Newport Folk Festival wrapped up on Sunday with lots of guests, covers, and collaborations. John Prine, Suzanne Vega, Dr. Dog, John Paul White, Rhiannon Giddens, Whitney, Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats, Michael Kiwanuka, Margaret Glaspy, Pinegrove, and others played the final day of this year's festival....

Pop music would not be the same without him.

The rock and roll progenitor also turns 90 today!
