Chuck Berry on Stage is a Chuck Berry album which was released in 1963 under Chess Records. Although promoted as a live album, this was a collection of previously released studio recordings (save one) with overdubbed audience sounds to simulate a live recording. In addition, one track labelled "Surfin' USA" on the album is actually "Sweet Little Sixteen", Berry's 1950s recording upon which "Surfin' USA" was based. "Brown-Eyed Handsome Man" is a previously unreleased alternate take.
