Berry took an old Western swing-style song, gave it an extra kick with his signature electric guitar licks, and renamed it Maybellene. Berry's guitar style influenced an entire genre of musicians and the song had a tremendous social and cultural bearing in the transitional environment of the 1950s. B&W 36 Minutes runtime. On May 21, 1955, rock n roll history was born. On that day, Chuck Berry recorded Maybellene, a song whose influence was massive and groundbreaking. Berry took an old Western sing-style song, gave it an extra kick with his signature electric guitar licks, renamed it Maybellene and unintentionally changed the direction of American popular music and culture. Berry s guitar style influenced an entire genre of musicians and the song had so much social and cultural bearing in the transitional environment of the 1950 s, that a cultural historian refers to Chuck Berry as central to the new rock n roll generation. Anticipating and pre-dating the fusion of black and white musical styles that Elvis popularized, Berry ignited interracial rock explosions in the 50s. With Maybellene, Berry influenced a plethora of guitar players, laid the foundation for rock music, began breaking down racial barriers and defined youth culture of the 50 s.
