Rock 'n' roll pioneer Chuck Berry died on this day in history, March 18, 2017, at age 90; he won numerous awards during his musical career. His life was not without controversy, however.
"Not just because he was one of its greatest songwriters and established some of the electric guitar's earliest and most memorable riffs, but also because he was one of music's most palpably exciting entertainers and biggest personalities," said Portnow in the same article.

Born as Charles Edward Anderson Berry on Oct. 18, 1926 in St. Louis, Missouri, Chuck Berry was exposed to music through his parents and his church.
