I saw her from the corner, when she turned and doubled back...

 On You Tube, video titled

Chuck Berry & Keith Richards - Nadine

uploader / channel:  BestMasterGuitar

        Go to it, and Play!


In the very first millisecond of the video, the guy with the saxophone is Bobby Keys. 

Then - the camera pans to the right, and there's Keith, standing, playing his guitar.  Then close-up on Chuck Berry's face as he's singing the song "Nadine" and playing his guitar.

        (Some of the criticisms of rock-and-roll music that I used to hear from the older generations was, "We can't understand the words!"  But with Chuck Berry, that isn't an issue - his diction is precise.)


At 1:20 is the famous "duck-walk."


        Something I heard TIna Turner say in an interview was, that she really liked to try and "act" a song, as well as sing it.  -  At 2:02 in the "Nadine" video, we see Chuck Berry acting the song, a bit.  ("Whoa!  Nadine! - Is that you?")
