1957
SCHOOL DAY * CHUCK BERRY * COLUMBIA 3951 * UK
Chuck Berry was in no doubt who his audience was by the time he wrote this song, the trenchant lyrics are the sort of thing the young could readily identify with and, at this time, rarely heard from anywhere else except popular music like R&B and Rockabilly, music their elders, from many institutions, tried their best to suppress.
