I read that his band in the early days once backed Chuck Berry. Said Chuck showed up at the last minute, plugged in his guitar and took off, leaving the band to figure what song, key, etc.

This is how Mr. Berry gigged for a long time. I know people in Chicago who ended up also playing with Chuck...he had no backing band of his own.

To me, he's THE father of RnR. More than Elvis, Beatles, or anybody else.

Yep, 60 year old rocker, I love it! Then again, Rock and Roll would be collecting social security as well now being it is 65 years old!

Being a Jersey guy, Springsteen is more than an icon in these parts. He is like one of the family. I went to the community college where it was rumored he was kicked out of for cutting class. Funny thing is I got a degree from there and am here writing this note eeking a living check to check. Whereas, the guy who got kicked out is a living legend and probably goes a little further on his checks than I do. I like to bring that fact up to my business professors. Some good they did!

I am not sure if any of you are familiar with the part of Jersey where he began. It later became a hotbed for local talent. Bands like Bon Jovi, Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes, Skid Row and some others that came from the same ranks. It was a lot of fun jamming in the local clubs in the area back in that time. There were even occasions where Bruce during his fame years would jump onstage and make a cameo at the local dive where he broke into the business and jam with the band performing that night. Just his simple contributions greatly influenced the music in that area of the country.

To me, well, let's just say I never was a fan.

I appreciate your enthusiasm and local patriotism, but how can an artist who came WAY after the others be the father of rock and roll (which, as a musician who was born in 1945, I listened to starting around 1956!)? Springsteen, while definitely a monster talent, probably listened to (he's only four years younger than me) a lot of the same early rock that I did...Little Richard, Fats Domino, Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis, Chuck Berry, ya-ta-da. ya-ta-da....

I get the distinct impression that there is ambiguity in this thread.
My feeling is what HappyTrails meant to say is that Chuck Berry is THE father of rock n roll, and not Broooooce.
Can you confirm, Hap?

I meant Chuck Berry was the father of RnR, not The Boss. He's way too young.

The confusion was my fault.
