He nui ka poʻe i kapa iā Chuck Berry ka "makua" o ka pōhaku a me ka ʻōwili ʻAmelika. Ua aʻo ʻo ia i nā hui hoʻomana e like me: The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, Roy Orbison a me Elvis Presley.
I kekahi manawa ua ʻōlelo ʻo John Lennon e pili ana i ka mea mele: "Inā makemake ʻoe e kapa ʻokoʻa i ka rock and roll, a laila e hāʻawi iā ia i ka inoa ʻo Chuck Berry." ʻO Chuck, ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea hoʻokani koʻikoʻi o kēia ʻano.
ʻO ka wā kamaliʻi a me ka ʻōpio o Chuck Berry
Ua hānau ʻia ʻo Chuck Berry ma ʻOkakopa 18, 1926 ma ke kūlanakauhale liʻiliʻi a kūʻokoʻa o St. ʻAʻole i ulu ke keikikāne i ka ʻohana waiwai loa. A i kēlā manawa, he kakaikahi wale nō ka mea hiki ke kaena i ke ola nani. He mau kaikunāne a me nā kaikuahine ʻo Chuck.
Ua mahalo nui ʻia ka hoʻomana ma ka ʻohana o Chuck. ʻO ke poʻo o ka ʻohana, ʻo Henry William Berry, he kanaka haipule. ʻO koʻu makuakāne he mea hana aelike a he diakono ma kahi hale pule Baptist kokoke. ʻO ka makuahine o ka hōkū e hiki mai ana, ʻo Marta, i hana ma ke kula kūloko.
Ua ho'āʻo nā mākua e hoʻokomo i kā lākou mau keiki i nā loina pono kūpono. Ua hana ʻo Māmā me kāna mau keiki. Ua ulu lākou i ka ʻimi a me ke akamai.
Noho ka ʻohana Berry ma ka ʻāpana ʻākau o St. ʻAʻole hiki ke kapa ʻia kēia wahi he wahi maikaʻi loa no ke ola. Ma ka ʻāina ʻākau o St. Louis, he haunaele i ka pō - lohe pinepine ʻo Chuck i nā pū.
Noho nā kānaka e like me ke kānāwai o ka ululāʻau - no kēlā me kēia kanaka nona iho. Ua noho aliʻi ka ʻaihue a me ka hewa ma ʻaneʻi. Ua ho'āʻo nā mākaʻi e hoʻihoʻi i ka maluhia, akā i ka hopena, ʻaʻole ia i mālie a mālie.
Ua hoʻomaka ka kamaʻāina ʻo Chuck Berry i ke mele i ke kula. Hāʻawi ke keiki ʻeleʻele i kāna hana mua ma ka ʻukulele ʻehā mau kaula Hawaiʻi. ʻAʻole hiki iā Māmā ke lawa i ke kālena ʻōpio.
ʻAʻole naʻe i hiki iā lākou ke hoʻopakele iā Chuck mai ka pilikia. I ka piha ʻana o Berry Jr. i 18, ua hoʻopaʻi ʻia ʻo ia i 10 mau makahiki i loko o ka hale paʻahao.
Ua lilo ʻo ia i lālā o ka powa o ʻekolu hale kūʻai. Eia hou, ua hopu ʻia ʻo Chuck a me ke koena o ka hui no ka ʻaihue kaʻa.
Berry i loko o ka hale paʻahao
I ka manawa i loko o ka hale paʻahao, ua loaʻa iā Berry ka manawa e noʻonoʻo hou ai i kāna ʻano. I loko o ka hale paʻahao, hoʻomau ʻo ia i ke aʻo ʻana i ke mele.
Eia kekahi, ma laila ʻo ia i hōʻuluʻulu ai i kāna hui ponoʻī o ʻehā mau kānaka. ʻEhā mau makahiki ma hope mai, ua hoʻokuʻu koke ʻia ʻo Chuck no ka hana hoʻohālike.
ʻO ka manawa i noho ai ʻo Chuck Berry i loko o ka hale paʻahao i hoʻololi i kāna kumu noʻonoʻo o ke ola. ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu ua loaʻa iā ia kahi hana ma kahi hale hana kaʻa kūloko.
Eia kekahi, ma kekahi mau kumu i loaʻa ka ʻike ma mua o ka hoʻāʻo ʻana iā ia iho ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻokani pila, ua hana ʻo Chuck ma ke ʻano he lauoho lauoho, mea nani a me nā mea kūʻai aku.
Ua loaʻa iā ia ke kālā, akā ʻaʻole i poina i kāna mea punahele - mele. ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu, ua hāʻule kekahi kīkā uila i ka lima o kahi mea hoʻokani pila ʻeleʻele. ʻO kāna mau hana mua i hana ʻia ma nā hale pō o kona kūlanakauhale hānau ʻo St.
ʻO ke ala hana o Chuck Berry
Ua hoʻokumu ʻo Chuck Berry i ka Johnnie Johnson Trio ma 1953. Ua alakaʻi kēia hanana i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka mea hoʻokani mele ʻeleʻele e hui pū me ka mea hoʻokani piano kaulana ʻo Johnny Johnson.
ʻAʻole hiki ke ʻike ʻia nā hana a nā mea hoʻokani pila ma ka hui Cosmopolitan.
Ua hiki i nā kāne ke hoʻohauʻoli i ka poʻe mai nā mele mua - ua haku ʻo Berry i ka virtuoso e pāʻani ana i ke kīkā uila, akā ma waho aʻe o kēia, heluhelu ʻo ia i nā mele o kāna haku ponoʻī.
I nā makahiki 1950 mua, ua ʻike mua ʻo Chuck Berry i ka "ʻono o ka kaulana". ʻO ka mea hoʻokani pila, ka mea i hoʻomaka e loaʻa kālā maikaʻi no kāna mau hana, ua noʻonoʻo nui ʻo ia e haʻalele i kāna hana nui a "hoʻokomo" i loko o ka honua kupaianaha o ke mele.
ʻAʻole liʻuliʻu ua alakaʻi nā mea āpau i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ua hoʻomaka ʻo Berry e aʻo i ka mele. Ma ka ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo a Muddy Waters, ua hālāwai ʻo Chuck me kekahi kanaka koʻikoʻi ma ka ʻoihana mele, ʻo Leonard Chess, ka mea i mahalo i ka hana a Chuck.
Mahalo i kēia poʻe, ua hoʻokō ʻo Chuck Berry i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ke mele ʻoihana mua ʻo Maybellene ma 1955. Loaʻa ka mele i 1-kūlana ma nā ʻano papa mele āpau ma ʻAmelika.
Akā, ma waho aʻe o kēia, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka moʻolelo me ka circulation o 1 miliona mau kope. I ka hāʻule ʻana o ka makahiki 1955, ua lawe ka haku mele i ke kūlana 5 ma ka papa palapala Billboard Hot XNUMX.
Makahiki o ke kaulana kaulana
ʻO 1955 ka mea i wehe i ke ala no Chuck Berry i kaulana a kaulana i ka honua. Ua hoʻomaka ka mea hoʻokani pila e leʻaleʻa i nā mea pā me nā haku mele hou.
ʻAneʻane ʻike nā kamaʻāina a pau o ʻAmelika i nā ala hou ma ka puʻuwai. ʻAʻole koke ka kaulana o ka mea mele ʻeleʻele ma waho o kona ʻāina hānau.
ʻO nā mele kaulana loa o ia manawa ʻo: Brown Eyed Handsome Man, Rock and Roll Music, Sweet Little Sixteen, Johnny B. Goode. Ua hoʻokani ʻia ke mele mele a Berry ʻo Roll Over Beethoven e ka hui kaʻao ʻo The Beatles i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o kā lākou hana hana.
ʻAʻole wale ʻo Chuck Berry he mea hoʻokani mele, akā he haku mele kekahi. ʻAʻole loa he "mea ʻole" ka mele a Chuck. Aia i loko o nā mele kahi manaʻo noʻonoʻo hohonu a me ka moʻolelo pilikino o Berry - nā manaʻo i ʻike, nā poho pilikino a me nā makaʻu.
No ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana ʻaʻole ʻo Chuck Berry he "dummy", ua lawa ia e nānā i kekahi o kāna mau mele. No ka laʻana, ua wehewehe ka haku mele ʻo Johnny B. Goode i ke ola o kahi keikikāne kamaʻāina ʻo Johnny B. Goode.
Ma hope ona, ʻaʻohe hoʻonaʻauao a ʻaʻohe kālā ke keiki. ʻAe, ma laila! ʻAʻole hiki iā ia ke heluhelu a kākau.
Akā, i ka hāʻule ʻana o ke kīkā i kona lima, ua kaulana ʻo ia. Ua ʻae kekahi ʻo kēia ka prototype o Chuck Berry iā ia iho. Akā ʻike mākou ʻaʻole hiki ke kapa ʻia ʻo Chuck he kanaka ʻike ʻole, ʻoiai ua aʻo ʻo ia i ke kulanui.
Pono ka haku mele ʻo Sweet Little Sixteen i ka nānā nui ʻana. I loko o ia mea, ua hoʻāʻo ʻo Chuck Berry e haʻi i ka lehulehu e pili ana i ka moʻolelo kupaianaha o kahi kaikamahine ʻōpio i moeʻuhane e lilo i hui.
Ahu Mele Chuck Berry
Ua'ike ka mea ho'okani pila,'o ia,'a'ohe mea'ē a'e, ho'omaopopo i ke kūlana o nā'ōpio. Me kāna mau mele, ua hoʻāʻo ʻo ia e kuhikuhi i nā ʻōpio ma ke ala pololei.
I ka wā o kāna hana hoʻomohala, ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo Chuck Berry ma luna o 20 mau album a hoʻokuʻu iā 51 mau mele. Ua hele ʻia nā ʻaha mele a ka mea hoʻokani mele ʻeleʻele e nā haneli haneli. Ua hoʻomana kiʻi ʻia ʻo ia, mahalo ʻia, nānā pono iā ia.
Wahi a nā lono, hoʻokahi hana a kahi mea hoʻokani pila kaulana i lilo i ka mea hoʻonohonoho i $2. Ma hope o ka hana ʻana, lawe mālie ʻo Chuck i ke kālā, hoʻokomo i loko o kahi pahu guitar a haʻalele i kahi kaʻa.
ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu, ua nalowale ʻo Chuck Berry mai ka ʻike ʻana aku, akā ua hoʻomau ʻia kāna mau mele. Ua uhi ʻia nā mele o ka mea hoʻokani pila e nā hui kaulana e like me: The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Kinks.
ʻO ka mea hoihoi, ʻo kekahi poʻe mele mele a me nā pūʻulu, ua ʻoluʻolu loa me nā mele i kākau ʻia e Chuck Berry. No ka laʻana, ua hoʻohana ʻo The Beach Boys i ke mele ʻo Sweet Little Sixteen me ka ʻole o ka hōʻaiʻē ʻana i ka mea kākau ʻoiaʻiʻo.
Ua maikaʻi loa ʻo John Lennon. Ua lilo ʻo ia i mea kākau o ka haku mele Come Together, e like me ka mea hoʻokani mele, ua like ia me ke kope kalapona me kekahi o nā haku mele o ka repertoire a Chuck.
Akā ʻo ka moʻolelo pilikino o Chuck Berry ʻaʻole i nele. Ua hoʻopiʻi pinepine ʻia ka mea hoʻokani pila no ka plagiarism. I nā makahiki 2000 mua, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Johnny Johnson ua hauʻoli ʻo Chuck i nā hits nona.
Ke kamaʻilio nei mākou e pili ana i nā mele: Roll Over Beathoven a me Sweet Little Sixteen. Ma hope koke iho, ua hoʻopiʻi ʻo Johnny iā Berry. Ua hoole nae na lunakanawai i ka hoopii.
ʻO ke ola pilikino o Chuck Berry
I ka makahiki 1948, ua noi ʻo Chuck iā Temette Suggs. ʻO ka mea e mahalo ai, i ka hopena o nā makahiki 1940, ʻaʻole kaulana ke kanaka. Ua mare ke kaikamahine i kahi kanaka maʻamau i hoʻohiki e hoʻohauʻoli iā ia.
I kekahi mau makahiki ma hope o ka male ʻana i ka pilina, ua hānau ʻia kahi kaikamahine i ka ʻohana - Darlene Ingrid Berry.
Me ka loaʻa ʻana o ka kaulana, ua hoʻomau ka poʻe ʻōpio a puni iā Chuck Berry. ʻAʻole hiki ke kapa ʻia he kanaka ʻohana hoʻohālike. Ua loli. A ua hana pinepine ia.
I ka makahiki 1959, ua hū ʻia kahi hōʻino ma muli o ka moe kolohe ʻana o Chuck Berry me kahi kaikamahine ʻōpio.
Ua manaʻo ka poʻe he nui ka mea hoʻopunipuni ʻōpio i hana i kahi hana e hōʻino ai i ka inoa o ka mea hoʻokani pila. ʻO ka hopena, ua hele ʻo Chuck i ka hale paʻahao no ka lua o ka manawa. I kēia manawa ua hoʻopau ʻo ia i 20 mahina i loko o ka hale paʻahao.
Wahi a ka mea hoʻokani pila ʻo Carl Perkins, ka mea i huakaʻi pinepine me Berry, ma hope o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana mai ka hale paʻahao, me he mea lā ua hoʻololi ʻia ka mea hoʻokani pila - ua pale ʻo ia i ke kamaʻilio, ua anuanu a mamao loa mai nā hoaaloha a me nā hoahana ma ke kahua.
ʻŌlelo mau nā hoaaloha pili he ʻano paʻakikī kona. Akā, hoʻomanaʻo ka poʻe pā iā Chuck me ka ʻakaʻaka mau a me ka mea pena kiʻi maikaʻi.
I nā makahiki 1960 mua, ua ʻike hou ʻia ʻo Chuck Berry i kahi hihia kiʻekiʻe - ua uhaki ʻo ia i ke kānāwai Mann. Ua ʻōlelo kēia kānāwai ʻaʻole ʻae ʻia ka poʻe malihini e peʻe.
He kahu ʻahuʻula kā Chuck ma kekahi o nā hale pō o Chuck i kūʻai aku iā ia iho i kona manawa kaʻawale. Ua lilo kēia i mea ʻoiaʻiʻo ua uku ʻo Berry i kahi uku (5 tausani kālā), a hele pū i ka hale paʻahao no 5 mau makahiki. ʻEkolu makahiki ma hope mai, ua hoʻokuʻu koke ʻia ʻo ia.
Akā naʻe, ʻaʻole kēia he mea hoʻokalakupua. I ka makahiki 1990, ua loaʻa nā ʻeke lāʻau lapaʻau ma ka hale o ka mea mele, a me kekahi mau limahana.
Ua hana lākou ma ka hui pilikino o Berry a hoʻopiʻi i ka mea pena kiʻi 64 makahiki o ka voyeurism. Wahi a nā kumu mana, ua uku ʻo Chuck i nā wahine ma mua o $ 1 miliona e mālama i ka hihia mai ka hoʻokolokolo ʻana.
Make o Chuck Berry
I ka makahiki 2017, e hoʻokuʻu ana ka mea mele i ka album Chuck. Ua hoʻolaha ʻo ia i kēia ʻoiai e hoʻolauleʻa ana i kāna lā hānau 90th. Eia naʻe, ma Malaki o ka makahiki 2017, ua make ʻo Chuck Berry ma kona home ma Missouri.
