THUNDERING ROCKER by Mr. Chuck 'Crazy Legs' Berry from the 1956 movie 'Rock Rock Rock'.
- "It sounds like the Beatles derived their hit song, "Come Together" from this tune. It even uses one of the lines, "come on flat top".

Chuck Berry counts as the main architect that helped build rock & roll with such anthems as "Roll Over Beethoven", "Maybeline", "School Days", "No Particular Place To Go" and this classic video right here called "Johnny B.Goode".
