Concerto in B. Goode was released in 1969 on Mercury Records, as Chuck Berry's second and final album for this label. The title is a pun on his classic "Johnny B. Goode" and the musical form of the concerto.
The album includes a mix of new songs and versions of earlier tracks, with a focus on more elaborate arrangements. Berry sought to experiment with more complex musical structures while maintaining his characteristic style.
Despite its ambitious title, the album had little commercial or critical impact. It is a collector's piece for fans, notable for its attempt at innovation within traditional rock and roll.
