How did MY DING A LING ever
become a hit.
Hated it then and don't love
it now.
Was this CHESS last and
final fling in pop hits?
I hated it too, but it was Chuck Berry's ONLY number-one single on the pop charts....despite the fact that probably half the Top-40 stations refused to even play it. With all of Berry's earlier hits, that is almost impossible to believe!

CHESS must have been desperate
but it worked.
Anyone out there ever taken
the CHESS studios tour in
Chicago. Great place to go and
think of all the stuff that came
out of that place. Ground
zero for so many hits.
You stand there in the studio
that gave us so much.
By the way, it's located at
2120 SOUTH MICHIGAN AVENUE.
Sound familiar? It's a Rolling
Stones tune made when they
recorded 12x5 album there.
Homage to the address.
Hey, diddywop, is that ole Ding-A-Ling still hangin'???
(at CHESS Studios tour)
The CHESS studio tour is
a must-see if in Chicago.
Just a block East from
there is the CHESS record
pressing plant. No tours.
Just a few blocks North of
CHESS is home of VEE-JAY records.
