RIP Chuck.

The only cover song AC/DC did on an album, IIRC, was "School Days." And even then, AUS only release:

THAT'S how awesome Chuck was, and how far his influence went.

Chuck Berry

Was trying to find a definitive send-off, and the "problem" is he has a dozen songs all of which could legitimately be called the greatest rock and roll song of all time. So then: my favorite, for a bit of his showmanship.
