Sierra Hull Band, at Grassroots Music Festival last week. (up near Ithaca NY... gotten pretty big I hear...)

Years ago, I had a copy of CHUCK BERRY'S GREATEST HITS, and hidden among 'Nadine' and his other hits, a slow blues, 'Wee Wee Hours'.  It always stuck with me, and a completely different turn for Berry.

So in the late 80's when Keith Richards produced the concert movie 'HAIL, HAIL, ROCK and ROLL', I'd forgotten that Eric took a turn at this song.  Recently ran across it again, and I love this version, with solos by him and Johnny Johnson, the piano player behind all of Chuck's hits back in those days.  The band was Keith, Robert Cray, the late Joey Spampinato on bass, Johnson on piano, Chuck Leavell on other keyboards, and Steve Jordan on drums.

Chuck, with a vibe outside his usual:

This, which I think is really great

Wee wee hours was great too 😊

Awesome.

Oh, I like that one! 😊

Heard a snippet of this on a TV show*; wrote down some words & goggled to see what it was so I could hear it all & decide if I like.
Tain't half bad; Colter Wall:

*Untamed, on NetFlix; a decent-but-standard cop/soap opera thing - except it's set in Yosemite, so the visuals are a bit of all right.

Just a little food for the soul 

Thanks, Phillip; I enjoyed that.
