Topic History of: Bo Diddley RIP

Author	Message
SW	Let's not forget some of the weird amplified violin tracks he did too.
Dominic Dee	A great influence. RIP Bo. I recall Craig McLachlan also doing a Bo Diddley inspired number - "Hey Mona". Bo will certainly never be forgotten.
Mart	Thinking about it further. There are not many people that can have lived their life and had a beat named after them are there? RIP Bo.
Big End	what a tremendous loss and RIP. Check out "Not Fade Away" by the Stones. The man's influence and style was profound.
Mart	Difficult to know what to say really, what a legend that guy was. But I would add to that short list of yours, T Rex (from 1970),Sigue Sigue Sputnik, "Hand Jive" from Grease, and the Smith`s "How Soon Is Now". He had such a natural and human beat within him and how the heck he played that strangly shaped guitar with comfort baffles me.
