In the mid-1960’s, Chuck Berry’s career was making a resurgence on the back of The Beatles & The Rolling Stones covering his songs on their early records. Chuck Berry In London (1965) was the answer to that British revival, and it is considered one of his best efforts of that period. This masterpiece contains eight songs recorded in London in early 1965, backed by the UK R&B group The Five Dimensions, plus other tracks belonging to a December 1964 Chicago session with the Jules Blattner Group.
