{"product_id":"chuck-berry_berry-chuck-after-school-session_2016_pia","title":"Berry Chuck \/ After School Session","description":"This reissue includes Chuck Berry's magnificent debut album, \"After School Session,\" originally released in May 1957 by Chess Records. It is one of the all-time cornerstones of rock \u0026 roll, and a truly representative sample of Berry at his peak. \"After School Session\" was only the second album ever released by Chess Records. The title of Berry's LP was meant to attract a teenage audience in the most innocent terms but also subtly invoked a more audacious after-school activity in its blues and ballads. While it was the teen-oriented hit singles that paid the bills and made Chuck Berry a goldmine, it was lesser heard tracks (like \"Drifting Heart,\" \"Together We Will Always Be,\" and \"Havana Moon\") that revealed his adventurous side and his willingness to fight against musical boundaries. In addition to the original masterpiece, this collector's edition also includes 4 bonus tracks from the same period, including big hits such as \"Rock \u0026 Roll Music,\" \"30 days (To Come Back Home),\" the unforgettable \"Sweet Little Sixteen,\" and \"Maybellene,\" which went to #1 on the US R\u0026B charts in 1955. All these original gems - which have been brilliantly remastered for the most immaculate sound - are simple two-and-a-half-minute songs that convey all the power and emotion of rock and roll. Without these recordings, there would be no Beatles, Rolling Stones, or Kinks, at least not in the forms they eventually took.","brand":"Chuck Berry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55304060698968,"sku":null,"price":23812623.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/8436544170138.jpg?v=1765908834","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/chuck-berry_berry-chuck-after-school-session_2016_pia","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
