Buy Mad Lad: A Live Tribute to Chuck Berry from Amazon
Like the rest of the Rolling Stones, Ronnie Wood had his life changed by Chuck Berry, so it's fitting that he decided to release a tribute album to his idol. Recorded at Wimborne Tivoli Theatre on November 13, 2018 and released nearly a year later, Mad Lad: A Live Tribute to Chuck Berry finds Wood playing with His Wild Five, a band featuring pianist Ben Waters and vocalist Imelda May. Wood kicks off the proceedings with "Tribute to Chuck Berry," a shambling, funny salute that is good-natured and filled with dad jokes that are just this side of embarrassing.
