Chuck Berry in Memphis is the eleventh studio album by Chuck Berry, released in 1967 by Mercury Records.

History

[edit]

Recorded, as the title suggests, in Memphis, Chuck Berry in Memphis differs from previous Chuck Berry albums in its emphasis on horns, which are played by members of the Memphis Horns. It includes two new versions of old songs: Sweet Little Rock and Roller and Oh Baby Doll.[2]
