Free Music Notes for Bo Diddley/Go Bo Diddley
Free Music Review: One of the Original Best
Hit: 5 Stars
Bo Diddley was one of only several who influenced what became known as R & R. I first heard and learned to play his music from 1954 as a youngster in Nashville, Tennessee. I still have some of the original 45 rpm recordings, slightly worn but still playable. Impossible to correctly emulate (his guitar and amps were the keys), in 1959, I attended a "street dance" held by 3 Vanderbilt frats who hired Bo Diddley and his 7 members...Jerome, the girl singer and numerous other stand me ups. At the break, I had the good fortune to meet him and he ushered me around his stage showing me the various features of his several guitars, the most famous being the "box" that he had had built for himself....Bo used a number of tape loops in his music: he would play the chorus, record it on loop then return to accompany himself as lead...the sounds were blood moving and greatly influenced many of us from the 1950's and 60's and into the 21st century. In Memphis, in 1961, I had an opportunity to sit in with him, what an eye opener!!!!! Despite the rumor of his short temper, he always took the time and effort to help young and old musicians further their guitar playing. In the 1990's, I heard Bo at The Exit Inn accompanied by one of my friends, Mac Gayden and even years later, he still had "zing" in his music. Now, Bo is gone but his music will live on for many years. He never really gained the stardom of an Eric Clapton or SRV but he had dramatic effects on both of them and more....For those of us reared in the 50's and 60's, a legend has passed...RIP BD June, 2008
Bo Diddley/Go Bo Diddley Poster
There's a lot more to Bo Diddley than the trademarked Bo Diddley Beat and rectangular guitars. An innovative guitarist, prolific songwriter (and song rewriter), and sensational vocalist (check out "Dearest Darling"), Diddley had an influence on rock music from Buddy Holly to U2 that was all-pervasive. This two-in-one CD brings together Diddley's first two (and two best) albums, recorded between 1955 and 1958. Propelled by Jerome Green's funky maracas and Willie Dixon's steady bass, Diddley rips through a collection of now classic numbers, including "Diddy Wah Diddy," "I'm a Man," and the eerie "Who Do You Love?" --Percy KeeganBlues Music CDs
