Bo Diddley RIP
02/06/08
Its a sad, sad day. Bo Diddley died today at the age of 79. I’d be as brave to say if it wasn’t for Bo music today wouldn’t sound the same. As Bo put’s it so well:
“I play the guitar as if I were playing drums.”
He created the “Bo Diddley Beat” which can be heard in tunes as far an vaired as Buddy Holly, Elvis, The Rolling Stones, U2 and the 60’s hit by the Strangeloves “I Want Candy.”
Lets hope he’s join forces with all the great muscians up in the sky making even greater music.
