"Chuck Berry

In the history of music nothing compares to the excitement of the birth of Rock n Roll in the early 1950's. Chuck Berry, Ike Turner and Little Richard were the three main protagonists and the influence they have had on future generations can never be underestimated. Chuck Berry's charisma, fabulous songwriting and incredible guitar technique make him very possibly the most inspirational and influential Rock musician of all time and as Elvis Presley once said ""If Chuck Berry had been born white the world would never had heard of Elvis Presley"".

"BB King

The greatest guitarist who ever lived is a subjective topic and will always be fiercely debated but BB King's name would have to be included in any discussion. The archetypal Blues man, his style has influenced many of the great guitarists of recent generations, most notably Jimi Hendrix, George Harrison and Eric Clapton. Riley Ben King has been performing for 6 decades and at the age of 86 he has now performed over 15,000 gigs and with many of the all-time music greats, his popularity shows no signs of waning.  Hopefully BB and his guitar ""Lucille"" have many more performances ahead.

"Little Richard

Very possibly the most charismatic rocker of all time but there    was so much more to him than his stage presence; such powerful and unrestrained vocals, a pianist supreme and a writer of some of rock music's most enduring anthems. He is the self-acclaimed architect of rock music and certainly was the blueprint for so many aspiring musicians including Jimi Hendrix, James Brown, Mick Jagger and Bob Dylan.
