Chuck Berry, who with his indelible guitar licks, brash self-confidence and memorable songs about cars, girls and wild dance parties did as much as anyone to define rock ’n’ roll’s potential and attitude in its early years, died on Saturday. He was 90.

The St. Charles County Police Department in Missouri confirmed his death on its Facebook page. Mr. Berry died at his home near Wentzville, Mo., about 45 miles west of St. Louis. The department said it responded to a medical emergency and he was declared dead after lifesaving measures were unsuccessful.

RIP Mr. Berry. as you join history's other great guitarists in heaven: Duane Allman, Jimi Hendrix, and Stevie Ray Vaughan.

One of my earliest memories is jumping up and down to the sounds of my dad playing his 45 of "Johnny B. Goode" on the turntable. I've loved Chuck Berry's music ever since. RIP.

Is it a  coincidence thy they killed another one of our  icon's ?. Chuck berry was just about to release his last album . This record will be phenomenal in sales but only if Chuck Berry is dead. There Is  a pattern ... Michael Jackson . Whitney Houston, Prince...
