CHUCK BERRY The Great Twenty-Eight (Super Deluxe Edition 4-LP + 10-inch EP - Originally issued in 1982, The Great Twenty-Eight is widely regarded as the definitive Chuck Berry compilation - a distillation of therecordings that effectively wrote the blueprint for rock & roll. This Super Deluxe box set expands that core statement into a career-spanning archive, combining studio hits, deep catalogue material, and a long-unreleased live recordinginto a single, historically grounded edition. The original double album gathers Berry's Chess-era singles in chronological sweep, from "Maybellene" through "Johnny B. Goode," "Roll Over Beethoven," and "Sweet Little Sixteen," capturing the economy, wit, and rhythmic precision that shaped generations of artists. More Great Chuck Berry extends the picture with additional A-sides, B-sides, and later chart successes including "Promised Land" and "You Never Can Tell," while Oh Yeah! Live in Detroit documents Berry's 1963 return to the stage, recorded at the Walled Lake Casino and unheard for more than four decades. Completing the set is Berry Christmas, a newly curated seasonal EP, alongside the four LPs on Black Vinyl. The collection is housed inside a lift-off lid textured linen box and includes a 12" booklet featuring new liner notes by Alan Light, archival photography, and a detailed discography. Factory sealed & recommended)
