Please don't confuse or merge this topic with the one I posted four days ago, "RIP Chuck Berry." Reliable unnamed sources assure me that Mr. Barris and Mr. Berry are different people. The CIA neither confirms nor denies this fact.

Chuck Barris wrote Freddy Cannon's big 1962 hit song, "Palisades Park," which was a very popular amusement park in New Jersey. He died just a few miles away in Palisades, New York. Here's a version by The Ramones.
