2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1

Johnny B. Goode

Johnny B. Goode
  • Contest: 2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
  • This nomination may be semi-autobiographical, but Chuck Berry is a legend and, in our opinion, belongs on the Mount Rushmore of Rock and Roll. Berry's most significant hit was "Johnny B. Goode," which sort of describes his upbringing and talks about one hell of a guitar player. Incidentally, this "character" has more life than beyond this one song as Berry referenced Johnny in "Bye Bye Johnny” (he goes off to make movies) and “Go Go Go” (where he explores jazz).
  • TV Show/Movie Appeared: Johnny B. Goode (1958)
  • Actors: Chuck Berry
  • Songs you may remember: Johnny B. Goode
  • Why you should vote:: Chuck Berry is a legend!
  • Why you should not vote:: This nomination does not feel very fictional.
