From since my childhood, I’ve always known Bo Diddley as one of the pioneers of rock & roll along with Fats Domino, Chuck Berry, Little Richard and Buddy Holly. I love 1950/60s musical footage and was mesmerized byDiddley’s dancing and playing while performing. His big sound laid the groundwork for the rock music of today.
As a teen, I remember Bo Diddley’s career got a revival due to the Nike commercial. When the legendary rock & roller tells the at-the-time seemingly unstoppable Bo Jackson that he doesn’t know diddley, Diddley very well could have been saying that to every one that didn’t know what he or any of his peers contributed to popular music history. Those words didn’t fall on deaf ears. When I had the chance to order music through BMG Music Service (RIP), I ordered a Bo Diddley collection and enjoyed it thoroughly.
Thanks to DJ Andy Williams for refreshing my memory about this one.
