Yes, Chuck Berry Invented Rock ‘n’ Roll — and Singer-Songwriters. Oh, Teenagers Too

The American legend, who died March 18 at age 90, endured racism even as he seemed to transcend skin color and struggled to enjoy his genius even as he enshrined fun in pop music. And, oh yeah — he definitely invented rock’n’roll.

I'm late to the #30DaySongChallenge #BIPOC edition. Still gonna play in.

Day 1. Song with colour in the title.

My choice:

Purple Haze - #JimiHendrix

https://youtu.be/zSsjtiky9xI

Purple is my fave colour. This song got played a lot in my youth & I still love listening to it. Jimi was a brilliant musician.
