CHUCK BERRY'S Grave & Where He Wrote JOHNNY B GOODE! 

You should get a medal for going out in that part of St. Louis. Many parts look like a war zone with hollowed out buildings, burned out cars and are just as dangerous.

I love how the beautiful swags on the door of the mausoleum looks like angel wings! Great vlog!!

Great vlog ! Right in my town . I had the pleasure of seeing Chuck Berry perform at Blueberry Hill in 2012 and I paid my respects to him at his funeral in 2017 . Gene Simmons was in town that weekend for a comic Con and something for the veterans at Rock and Brews restaurant . He attended the funeral to pay his respects to Chuck but the family wanted him to speak so he did a nice little eulogy speech .

Jordan your excitement and enthusiasm is what brings this piece to life! Very well done. I can always count on you to brighten my day. Thank you and happy Valentines day.

One of Berry's hits Sweet Little 16 was a influence to Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys doing Surfing USA. Beautiful statue of a true music legend, thanks for sharing.

Loved Chuck Berry, his music was so ahead of its time, starting out rough sure didn’t stop him, go Chuck go. RIP Chuck🎶

Chuck Berry was still performing about once a month in his 80's. My husband and I were lucky enough to see him in about 2012 at Blueberry Hill (briefly shown in your video). He played downstairs in the Duck Room. It was an AMAZING concert and we enjoyed seeing him very much!! He sang Johnny B. Goode and even did the duck walk!! An experience we won't forget!! The owner of Blueberry Hill (and many other businesses on Delmar in St. Louis) was a big fan of Chuck Berry. I recommend going into Blueberry Hill next time you're there. It's hosted MANY celebrities and singers. The restaurant looks like a museum of memorabilia! Thank you for the video! 🙂

Interesting to hear of him buying the empty lot where his duplex was all because of a window peeping experience. His house in 1958 was sure nice and so is his mausoleum. He was certainly a Rock N Roll icon and I've always loved him.

Man, you can take any subject and totally make me want to hear all about it! You definitely have a great talent for telling stories, and making them come alive. I could envision everything you said in my mind, it was great, but that's pretty much how all your vlogs are! A++ Jordan, loved it!!! 🌼

Jordan, I was glad that you did this vlog, because I remember on a live feed when you were still in California, I asked you to vlog Chuck Berry and you said, No, because he is an enigma. I also wanted to remind you that you could have went into Blueberry Hill and had some great food, because Chuck Berry used to play concerts in the Duck Room there and one of his guitars is there behind glass as you first walk in. Also, I met Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley at the Grand Opening of Rock N Brews in St. Louis and they left that evening to fly to Kansas City, MO to appear at the grand opening of Rock N Brews there. The next day Chuck Berry had passed and Gene Simmons was one of the only famous people to fly back to St. Louis to go to his funeral at the Pageant Theater down the street from Blueberry Hill. Gene did not plan to give a speech because he was in the back, but he did anyway. What a man of great character.

A pretty amazing and talented guy!! Always love to learn more about some of my favorite musical artists!! I guess Jah wanted to sleep in!! Making it to 90 is impressive!! Thanks Jordan!!

Wow, didn't realize he was from STL. Another RU-vidr I watch lives on St Louis Ave; he is restoring a 2nd Empire mansard. Anyway, that is quite the interesting video, didn't know a lot of that about Chuck. Yes, loved how his "cousin Marvin Berry" performed and called to let him know about a new sound. I was surprised you didn't mention his famous duck walk he did with his guitar. That is a pretty snazzy mausoleum he has there, almost looks like a house. Great to see Jah again!

Yet again another great vlog! Thanks for sharing Jordan 🎸🎶

Greetings from London England. Thanks so much for this video: it’s great. I’m a huge Chuck Berry fan and it was amazing to see all these historical landmarks. It’s illuminating, and made all the more enjoyable by your obvious love of the music and the man. Many thanks.

Another terrific vlog. Thanks for posting!

Chuck berry was an awesome artist & a great musician Thanks for.sharing this video

*Have you ever seen his home/family places just outside of Wentzville, Missouri?* It was down Buckner Road, I believe. Driven by there several times. We used to live about 15 or so miles from him. He used to own Southern Aire Restaurant in Wentzville.

I love his music, as I grew up with it!

A POWERHOUSE OF AN EPISODE... THANK YOU FOR SHARING... =)

Hi Jordan, I'm surprised how much of that area is boarded up. WOW, that was a very impressive Mausoleum, with it's own big pathway aswell. I bet that cost a few Dollars. So many great songs to remember him by. What a fun piece at the end with the Jahster. Great vlog Jordan.

This was great...loved it! Thanks Jordan!!!

We went there two years ago and was told by the office staff that his body was not in his mausoleum made for him because his casket wouldn't fit in through the front door. As of 2019 they were still holding his body in another area trying still to figure it out. Would be interesting to know how it turned out.

💋Great vlog! Back to Future was one of my favorite movies as a kid. Chuck Berry what legend. He could make a guitar “get up and walk” playing it. lol Happy Valentine’s Day to you and Jah! ~Love&Light♥️Carli

Great vlog on Chuck Berry and a great way to end it with a big smile from Jah.

WooooooooooooooooW ! University City Mo. ❤️ Great video ♠️. Chuck Berry was the man 👑❤️🎶👍🏾

A amazing Vlog ! So much appreciated Jordan, Ty,, have a great V Day our friend Cheers!❤🍻

Wentzville is my hometown. Will always be home and always happy to tell people I'm from the same time as Chuck

Chuck Berry was awesome. Grew up listening to the "Great One"

My introduction to Chuck Berry was My Pop. He always had his music playing. My Pop always said he was The King Of Rock and Roll.

THANKS for this...LOVE Chuck Berry...

Very cool and informative!! Thank you Jordan!

Another great video! I love when you show all the places he lived!

I rember chuck berry in the sixties his song Johnny begood was a good song good video vickie bell napa ca

*Awesome video!* Loved seeing his former homes! Safe travels! 🌹

hi jordan!! and jah!! thank you for remembering Chuck Berry!! great performer rip!!!! you're the man!❤ jordan!! you're the man!!! hugs and kisses! ✌out!!!

When Chuck would be out on the road, most of the time he would go by himself and have the local promoter find him a pick up drummer and bass player. Chuck knew that every bass player and drummer knew the tunes and could sit in. More money for Chuck, but hundreds of musicians recall playing with him and being star struck. (Thanks for mentioning this interesting thing about Chuck's touring)

A thousand 👍 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍. The best video, informative details …love it. Thank you! Heard his ding a song performance online. It caught my interest and brought me to your video and a great one!!!!!!

Great! Thanks for a wonderful blog.

Wow a lot of interesting things I did not know about Chuck Berry. Lol Great musician!

Thanks for another great time 😀 take care and be safe God 😀

Ahahaha love Cheech & Chong Berry lines, got me laughing hard! Great Job Lion!!

Love his music. This was a really great video. Loved seeing all the places he lived

Thanks! for all your videos bro you do your homework it’s good to someone who takes the time to research info before you post videos thanks again for sharing

Awesome volg!!!! Thanks Jordan.

I met Chuck in 1974 he was very kind and polite, he asked us directions to his hotel, so he followed us there, then we ate at Hardee's, nobody knew who he was, he was Cool

Another Great in depth video. Thank you Jordan I really Enjoyed it! Hey jah if you snooze you lose.! Stay Safe from Tammy in PA

Many thanks Jordan, great stories and a really enjoyable tribute. Although the buildings give the impression the neighbourhood has seen better days, the neighbour who spoke to you and related the story of Chuck Berry collecting them to swim in his pool, made us remember it's the people not the buildings that matter.

Well put together video

This was awesome! Totally enjoyed your tour guide video clip. Big fan of Chucks. Seem him once in Germany in 1988 while stationed in Army in Stuttgart.

Love the hat Jordan !! Love the vlog

This was amazing to see. The father of rock and roll!! Thanks man 😎👍👍

Chuck Berry was a great Rock &Roll star in my day. Remember dancing crazy to his music and had all his 45s that came out. Thanks for sharing this Jordan.

Oopsie , Jordan this was a really beautiful tribute. Thankyou for filming the places Chuck grew up in , it says alot about the man. He was the most iconic musician of his time and even today. This was so special our little guy Jah🐕 missed the filming classic response, although that bed looked to good for him to pass up . Bless him. 😉🧡👍

Brilliant video! Chuck Berry was IT! 💪❤ Thank you for taking us down memory lane. Loved this!

I did a play "Almost Famous" with "Boogie Bob" Baldori - years ago. He was a piano player for Chuck Berry at one time. So many Berry locations - great video Jordan. Have a great night. Blessings - Judith's 🎵🎭

Jordan very awesome Vlog Chuck Berry all I Can Say Legend !! Thaank You & Jah Sleepy Buddy lol

I did get to see Chuck Berry at a big car show in Atlantain the mid 80's. I didn't know he was going to be there that night, so that was a nice surprise. He sat in a chair singing and playing his guitar up on the stage. I started dancing with my mom's friends , haha... and he started laughing at us too. He knew we were having a good time. 😄 This was a very cool video Jordan...! ❤ Thank you so much. I love when Jau smiles and covers his sweet little face. Haha..!! So cute...!! 🥰

Oh and Happy Valentines Day Jordan and Jau... !!! 😘🥰❤

Great job Jordan!

Great vid dude.I'm lucky enough to have opened a show for Chuck in 1985 in Greensboro NC ...I was 25 years old..in a Band called "USA ROCK" Regulars at a big club called Louies Rock City...We shared the same dressing room with Chuck...He was awesome,His manager as well.....I remember they had to locate the correct fender amp for him to use for this show..Found one local...Thanks again.....

Amazing video,

You have a great talent for telling a story. Great vid!

Jordan, this is one of your masterpieces, and I imagine it wasn't so easy walking thru these mean streets. I have been a Chuck Berry fan ever since I realized the BEATLES and ROLLING STONES loved him. just when I think you have shown me everything, I get this! not since you did the Jimi Hendrix tour was I this excited. the best R&R song ever written was his statement, 'Roll over Beethoven'. (& tell Tchaikovsky the news). you're building a body of work here, my friend. your latest vlogs are just as good ,and as much fun as the early ones.

That was great I really enjoyed it thanks

Great video Thanks

I love the song my ding aling I still giggle when I hear it lol

Thank you Jordan for the chuck berry video it was awesome and I did know he lived in some places and for sure he did have a rags to riches story and thank you for letting us see Jah rolling around in the bed being a lazy pup.

Met Chuck Berry as a child in Creve Coeur, Missouri at his Sister’s house in the late 60’s. Of course, I did not know anything about rock n roll and who he was but my Father did so that is how I got a chance to shake his hand. He wanted to give an autograph picture but did not have any with him at the time hence it was just a short visit to his Sister’s house. Wow, I still can’t believe all these years later. Great vlog.

Very cool! Thanks

One of the reasons why I watch your channel is the research you put into each project/episode. Unfortunately, we live in a world of instant gratification and history requires research. Too bad those who passed by Chucks house did not take more time to research and know what they were actually in front of. Much of slavery is revealed by way of conversations. Your conversation with the gentleman who knew Chuck is one of those rare gems. Thank you for your hard work and for bringing us behind the scenes. The episode on the Ike and Tina Turner's house was amazing! I wish you would have taken more tile from the fire pit to give away. Thank you for sharing your friendship with Shelly Winters, she was one of the absolute best. If at all possible, please consider Sammy Davis Jr. Sammy was so well rounded with talent and is hardly talked about anymore. Thank you for all that you do.

sad to see all the decay.

I was number 600 likes Soooo many empty buildings. They should rebuild and new memories could be made. Great stream Informative, Educational and Fun.

Jordan, you are an amazing blogger. 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌹

I saw Chuck in concert a few times. Once, as he was at the front of the stage jamming and leaning over playing to the front row, some chick threw a whole cup of Coke in his face. Well, that was the end of the show right now. He unplugged and left. That chick got booed right out of the auditorium! He truly was a sight to behold and I am richer for seeing him live. You did a good job on this one. I have wondered about his life and home. Thank you.

Cool! The guitar in Back to the Future is an anachronism, by the way. It wasn't available in that format in that time period.

Hey Jordan, great video.. I started playing drums when I was 2 and in my 1st band at 9 but I ran around in the soulard area was playing in places like hammerstones, 1860’s great grizzly bear, Carson’s ECT. however, I played drums for jonnie Johnson, Oliver Johnson, Marsal strong, he called me the big boss man haha! Max baker, And just tons more in the area and across the river in east St.Louis however, I was soul reunion drummer for quite some time… When Gary McCully and Larry Mann was in the band they both passed on now.. anyway, we were playing a gig one night and in walked chuck. And him and Gary were taking.. and Gary obviously asked chuck to play and chuck agreed but when he walked on the stage he asked Gary , hey what abt this white kid on the drums.. and Gary said.. chuck! He’ll be ok let’s jam! And chuck looks back at me and says hey white kid, you ever heard of Jonny be good? I said yes sir I have! He said well, good I wrote it! Hang with me! Haha! And that happened all before I was 20 years old I was still in my teens.. and I’ll be 43 this year lol and I also played drums for his daughter Ingrid berry as well.. so, I have some great memories that will stay with me forever again, great video man! Tommy

Another amazing vlog, loved the locations,history everything. He truly is a legend,pioneer of the industry,.He was reportedly a very bad tempered guy,who spoke and treated people quite harshly in his circles. Superb vlog Jordan. 👌

Thanks Jordan, Little sleepy head Jah. :)

If Chuck’s music didn’t get you up and moving, nothing could. Thanks for another informative and interesting video. Also, I appreciate that you take your baby with you on the road. He sure has a sweet smile.

Love his🎸 playing thanks Jordan

I knew of Chuck Berry's music way before through Chess records thanks Jordan fun awesome video on Chuck Berry

Thank you Jordan for this video! I loved Chuck Berry, I still listen to his music, what a music Legend he was!! I wish St. Louis would make his home on College a Histoical sight. I dont blame him for wanting paid before he performed. Thank you for the Music Mr. Berry! ♥

👍💯💜👏👏👏. Thanks Jordan for a nother great video. Beautiful Mausoleum, Worthy of Mr Chuck Berry. Thanks for showing it, I'd never seen Mr Chuck Berry final resting place. My Grandmother loved Mr Chuck Berry. Music she danced to. I guess Jah just wanted to chill.🙂. ✌. RIP MR CHUCK BERRY. 🕯🦋🌠🌻🌷🌟✨. Love,respect and positivity always. Nj.🧘‍♀️🙌✌🙂👋.

Another great vlog! Chuck punched Keith in the eye! Keith said I wore that black eye for two week's!

Awe, you were in my neck of the woods! I'm a few hours away from there in Sedalia MO

Jah was grinning at you! Adorable!

No question Chuck Berry was a musical giant. Hits too numerous to list. His music will live forever. Another fine vlog

You're so close to my home in Kansas City! We've got Charlie Parker & Satchel Paige buried here. You'd love the Charlie Parker story to vlog. Thank you, Jordan! ❤

I really Ioved this vlog I love his music
