Bo Diddley "The Originator" R.I.P.

I'm probably never going to think of Bo Diddley (1928-2008) quite the same after reading Etta James' autobiography. He was an architect of what we know today as rock 'n' roll and created some memorable rhythmic interplay that influenced numerous other musicians, and led to key moments in the rock 'n' roll archives. Rock on, Mr. Diddley.


Classic Bo Diddley "Road Runner" (who are the other musicians?)
