I'm guessing it's Dave playing all the instruments here, and he's a great guitarist and singer but a great drummer he ain't ... Listen to any of the Dead's live takes of this for definitive versions!

I think that us Aussies and the Brits and even you more refined Americans would have to say that this version is second best to Chucks but eons in front of Elvis'?

Same here - I also heard it on Bernie Keith's show, which was strange in itself as something weird happened to the broadcast and it was actually played twice. I'd never heard this version before, which is odd as it's one of my favourite Chuck Berry songs, and I love Dave Edmunds

BONZA hardly does it: BRILLIANT. Even creamier guitar than Chuck Berry himself. What a great singalong track too. Thank you Bernie Keith on BBC Radio Essex for causing me to hear this version and come here to trace it. Thanks MrPurser for sharing it.
