    Rock 'n' roll legend Chuck Berry wants to release his first studio album since 1979, but he will only do so once he finds the right business partner or manager to help him navigate those murky music business waters, which have changed quite a bit since his heyday and since he last dropped a record.

    Berry, 86, has six previously unheard songs he wants to share with fans, many of which were written years ago. But he won't do so without a manager, and we bet there is already a line forming around the corner for the job! "As soon as I can get someone to guide me – and I do know a little about the business – I want to push them [the songs] out. I'm going to come back and push them out if you know what I mean, somehow."

    Do you want to hear new Chuck Berry songs? Will he find a manager to assist? We think so! These songs NEED to be heard.
