Bo Diddley Rocks! CD
Here is a full CD of truly original, groundbreaking rock 'n' roll, presented as only Bo Diddley could.
Bo Diddley’s music had a unique beat, an individuality, an attitude, and it formed part of the basic fabric of rock 'n' roll during its heyday in the mid-1950s and early ‘60s.
There was normally a Bo Diddley disc on the American R&B charts in those years (11 hits in all) and 5 of them made the pop charts too.
The immediately recognizable Bo Diddley Beat was copied by some, but never as well, while many others weaved elements of his style into the rock music mainstream.
Buddy Holly’s Not Fade Away, Dee Clark's Hey Little Girl, and Johnny Otis' Willie and The Hand Jive and Freddy Cannon’s Buzz Buzz A-Diddle-It all borrowed the Bo Diddley Beat, which has become a universal a sub-genre unto itself.
