摘要

THE honour of having made the first rock'n'roll record is usually given to Jackie Brenston and his Delta Cats for "Rocket '88'" (1951). Like all musical firsts, this is hotly argued over: landmark singles by Bill Haley, Big Joe lurner, Elvis Presley and Bo Diddley are often considered close rivals. But any doubt about the arrival of true, flat-out rock was extinguished by "Maybellene" (1955), a two-minute ditty by Chuck Berry, who died on March 18th. What distinguished "Maybellene" was not so much the lowdown distortion of Mr Berry's "chitlin' circuit" lead guitar and the raw sound of his band, but the song's departure from the swinging r&b polish of its contemporaries. Mr Berry was behind the wheel, and though he was heading somewhere new, he knew exactly where.
