Chuck Berry in London is the eighth studio album by Chuck Berry, released in 1965 by Chess Records. Only eight of the tracks were actually recorded in London with the UK R&B group the 5 Dimensions, in January, 1965. Five other tracks were recorded in Chicago in December, 1964 with the Jules Blattner Group. The remaining track, "Night Beat" was left over from a 1957 session. "I Want to Be Your Driver," which later appeared as the final track on The Great Twenty-Eight, is based on "Me and My Chaffeur Blues" by Memphis Minnie.[3]
