Fresh Berry's was released in November 1965 by Chess Records. It is Chuck Berry's sixth studio album and mainly contains covers of pop and rock standards, along with some original compositions.
The album includes a cover of "My Mustang Ford", which became a minor single. Also notable is his rendition of "Merry Christmas Baby", a Christmas song Berry recorded for this album.
Although not one of his most successful works, Fresh Berry's showcases Berry's versatility in tackling outside material. Production was handled by Leonard and Phil Chess, owners of the label.
