Rock, Rock, Rock is a soundtrack album for the motion picture of the same name and is now considered Chuck Berry's first album.[1] Only four songs on this album ("Over and Over Again," "I Knew From the Start," "You Can't Catch Me"," and "Would I Be Crying") actually appear in the film. Eight songs by Chuck Berry, The Moonglows and The Flamingos make up the balance of the songs. Other artists who appeared in the film were not on the album. Being as The Best of Muddy Waters was the third LP record released by Chess and was LP 1427;[3] then Rock, Rock, Rock labeled LP 1425[1] was the very first LP ever released by Chess.

In a later Chess session, the Moonglows sang backing vocals for Chuck Berry on some songs, including "Back in the U.S.A.".[1]
