The quality of the video helped me decide what today's tidbit would be. In 1959 Chuck Berry released the album "Chuck Berry is on Top". This is a clip from the low-fi movie scene from "Go, Johnny, Go from the same year. It was blended with an hq recording so it's not an original mix.
The reality is this was really only a compilation album with just one new single entitled "Blues for Hawaiians". I couldn't find a Video or mention of that song on You Tube. It must not have been one of his more popular efforts, I'd never heard of it myself either.

Cheeseburgers
Just before the Vancouver Canucks win the cup sounds like a perfect time for cheeseburgers! With the UFC in town tonight and the Canucks huge win last night Vancouver is a sports mecca this weekend. Your too late to join this particular Canucks bandwagon. Last chance for that was when I officially predicted they'd win the cup with this All Aboard! post I made back on April 27th. Now dig in!

Today's Tidbit
There weren't a lot of No.1's on the charts I wanted to talk about today. However, on this day in 1978 Joe Walsh released "Life's Been Good".
1978 was a great year that brought us Rush's "All the Worlds a Stage" their answer to Led Zeppelin's song remains the same. I found it really was the last decade of some of that better rock music that took a huge nose dive in the disco era that followed and the bubble gum rock era that followed that. Other then a few key exceptions this is probably the last decade for decent song writing and serious stadium filling rock on the whole. I haven't forgotten the KISS or Van Halen's of the world but that 70's decade was still dishing out 60's era song crafting for the most part.
No video again this time just sound.

IMPORTANT
Steak & White Rice
A beautiful steak cooked on the stove-top with white rice, fried mushrooms and caramelized onions. Even more delicious then these pictures could ever hope convey!
Ground Black Pepper and Sea Salt is all the seasoning these needed.
