http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Cd8NQmJp88Chuck is the King of rockin' roll. Who else can tour for fifty years without a band, knowing that in any town he plays, the best local musicians will know his songs, and be his band. Every night he blows into town without a band. Does the show backed by local musicians. Gets his money. Then rolls on down the line. My wife and I had the good fortune to catch Chuck in Rochester, NY in the late 80s. I recently heard he became ill while touring this past year, and had to cut the tour short. Here's hoping he is able to keep "reelin' and a rockin."
