When I was in High School we went to see Chuck Berry and I thought, damn he looked old, but he hopping around stage like he was still 20. 

That was fourty years ago which would have made him 50 at the time. He had a good run.

He had a song on the charts when I was in high school in the 1970s - which sounds like around the time that you saw him perform.

A nice tribute posted by Mick Jagger:

 

I am so sad to hear of Chuck Berry's passing. I want to thank him for all the inspirational music he gave to us. He lit up our teenage years, and blew life into our dreams of being musicians and performers. His lyrics shone above others and threw a strange light on the American dream. Chuck, you were amazing, and your music is engraved inside us forever.

An amazing American talent. Neither blues, film, or rock n roll would have been the same without him.
