(on 45 rpm of course)

Interesting to note that despite all those great Chuck Berry songs:
- Memphis, Tennessee
- Maybelline.
- Johnnie B Goode
- You Never Can Tell
- Sweet Little Sixteen
- School Day
- Nadine
- No Particular Place To Go
- Back in the USA
- and more

The only number 1 hit he ever had was "My Ding-A-Ling"
