Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode" was released. It would enter the Billboard charts six weeks later and rise to number eight on the Hot 100 and #2 on the R&B chart. The song's original lyrics referred to Johnny as a "colored boy," but Berry later acknowledged that he changed it to "country boy" to ensure radio play. Berry got the name "Johnny" from Johnnie Johnson, a piano player who collaborated with Berry on many songs..while "Goode" was the St. Louis street where he grew up.
