At the end of the live section, the recording includes the sounds of festival management trying in vain to get the audience to leave so that the next performers, Pink Floyd, can take the stage; the crowd begins chanting "We want Chuck!" "My Ding-a-Ling", from the live side of the album, was edited down to approximately 4 minutes for single release; it became Berry's first and, to date, only No. 1-charting recording in both the US and UK. == Background == In May 1970, Howlin' Wolf traveled to Olympic Sound Studios in London, England, to record songs for ''The London Howlin' Wolf Sessions''. The album was released in August 1971 and peaked at #28 on ''Billboard'' magazine's R&B Albums chart and #79 on the ''Billboard'' 200. Because of Wolf's success, Muddy Waters made his own ''London Sessions'' album in December 1971; Chuck Berry followed with his in 1972. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The London Chuck Berry Sessions」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
