Sure, the Chess recordings are timeless masterpieces, but these recordings have a certain charm that cannot be mistaken. Chuck's guitar is certainly more aggressive sounding (perhaps to compete with the sounds of '67), and the echo on his vocals is a cheesy, yet nice touch. The electric organ and piano reminds one of the classic Faces, and CLUB NITTY GRITTY is a nice little rocker. (Record Runner)

Just a FYI, the songs on "Chuck Berry's Golden Hits" are remakes, not the original versions.
Yes Okie - That is explained in the notes above. It's interesting to hear the 1967 versions. We have all heard The classic Chess versions countless times, so this is a nice change.
I agree Gyro, I always liked this version of "Memphis" (no "Tennessee"). Thanks!
RYP,
With your permission if you are not already planning it; I would be honored to post my own fresh rips of Chuck Berry's Rock And Roll Music - Any Old Way You Choose It - The Complete Studio Recordings ... Plus! (16 CD Compilation by Bear Family from 2014 ).

Erasmus - I already said that this morning and deleted it. The rip on this link is great, no need for another rip. I already own the CD box so I don't need it.
oops
Thanks for this CB greatest hits. Been wanting to hear the remakes.
Also, looking forward to hearing
