-Our Intro Song "Feel the Love" From Alex's band

As musicians, whenever you hear this guitar riff, you need to know and be able to say: “this is the Bo Diddley Beat.”
That riff is older than Bo.
1956, baby
@@peteb2304 the riff is older than Bo's first recording of it. "Shave and a haircut, two bits" from the 1800s and the clave rhythm before that.
@@moniphil Yes, and as musicians who call it the Bo Diddley Beat, you need to know he didn't create it.
The Rhythm is based on West African Yoruba via Afro Cuban Clave.
The 2/3 & 3/2 clave
It is the basis of Salsa music and dance
Now you gotta hear the OG Bo Diddley version!
That’s early Rock n Roll at its finest!
When Bo Diddley sang about an ice wagon in the 1950s, it made a lot more sense.
ruclips.net/video/8w9Eii9ZFsQ/видео.html
I saw Bo Diddley do thi in 1980something. He played it for 45 minutes. The most boring thing since I had seen John Mayall live in the seventies.
Your jags got something going. Good luck brother. Need some wr help but heading in the right direction. Beat my raiders. I always respected the jags. Win that division
Love it! George took it to 11!
"I Drink Alone" might be the optimal next Thorogood song for you two; it earned all the airplay it still receives.
100% agree. When I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself
I'm late to the party but I came to recommend this song as well!
George took some flak for recycling old blues tunes but for a lot of us in the 80s he was a gateway to discovering all the great musicians he name checked in his songs. Bo Diddly, Muddy Waters, Elmore James, Hound Dog Taylor, so many more. That's a whole other world for you guys to dive into sometime.
Gotta second this. I wouldn't know diddley about the blues if I hadn't wondered who "Chester Burnett" and "McKinley Morganfield" were in the liner notes of Thorogood's albums. Covering blues songs (and making them one's own) is also a long-standing tradition in blues music. I can't tell you how many times I heard a song and thought, "Ah, the original!!" only to learn somebody else had recorded a version decades earlier. Also, I saw George dozens of times live in the 80s and I can't say that hurt my interest in the blues!
I've never seen a reaction to Hound Dog Taylor.... and doubt I ever will ugh
Absolutely. When I heard Led Zep, the early Fleetwood Mac, and many Stones songs, I wanted to know who these people were. Who were Bo Diddley, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, etc?
So I started to explore these amazing blues artists. So thanks to all these bands who gave me this lead to such great music. Blues wouldn't be anywhere near as well known now if it wasn't for all these musicians.
If othe bluesmen and women were as smart as Willie Dixon they kept the rights to the songs they wrote and made money when rockers covered their music. Or did what Willie did and Sued Led Zep.
Totally pulled me in - I never heard anything like this before George introduced me. Not super strong on lyrics, lol but that's not really the point with this band. I Drink Alone, Move it on Over, Bad to the Bone, Gear Jammer.
George's "One Bourbon, One Scotch and One Beer" has maybe the best spoken monologue in rock ever -- not poetic, but such ATTITUDE -- great tune too!
I totally agree, but I’ll throw in J Geils Band live version of “Must of Got Lost”. When he can’t remember the name of “the chick with the long hair”, and a band mate yells Rapunzel, but he still screws it up and calls her “Raputa - Raputa tha beauta”
Yeah, the live one w Elvin Bishop!
Look up A&A drunk reaction.... they gave 1 bourbon.... A drunk 10 out of 10.....
@@viclagina347 Thanks! I will!
The best drinking song ever!!
I’d definitely go with “Move It On Over” if you want to hold off on “Bad to the Bone”, but you should hit them both.
Others: Ride On Josephine, It Wasn't Me, You Got To Lose, Madison Blues, One Bourbon, One Scotch and One Beer, Nobody But Me, Miss Luann, No Particular Place To Go.
Agree. Bad to the Bone is ok, but it's his most overplayed and it's a bit of cheesy pop-blues/rock.
I'd add Bottom Of the Sea to that list
Have to include One Bourbon, One Scotch and One Beer
This is pure Bo Didley. And to Thorogood's credit, he didn't just take Didley's stuff and sell it for his own gain, he credited Bo, brought him out of the past and put him on stage with him for a new audience and helped him launch a new career (including ann iconic Nike ad with Bo Jackson: "Bo, you don't know Didley!" Look it up) that probably made him more money than decades in the music industry did.
In other words, everything that Led Zeppelin should have, but didn't do. Hell, they needed to be sued multiple times before even acknowledging writing credit when whole verses were being lifted. Embarrassing.
George also put Bo Diddley in his "Bad to the Bone" video, along with Bo's iconic square guitar.
@@gregsager2062 he sure did! Nice call!
George Thorogood " Who Do You Love " Live Aid with Bo Diddly !
Good suggestion ?
Got to give props to George for going out of his way to get Bo to join with the most worldwide exposure posdible.
@@richarddefortuna2252 Zeppelin weren’t the only ones doing that. It was extremely common in the 60’s and 70’s just look at George Harrison and My Sweet Lord. Nowadays they call it sampling instead of plagiarism
A&A, you'll Love his "I Drink Alone", "Bad To The Bone" and "Move It On Over"!!! Seen him live in the 80's, great show!!
edited - due to you already reacted to "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer".
I'll add "If you don't start drinking, I'm gonna leave".
Don't forget the Delaware Slide....amazing guitar licks.
6 dollars for his live performance in the late 70's. Unbelievably good.
Yep seen him back in 77 great show 👍🎸
Saw him in a place called the Rusty Nail in Sunderland, Mass. Basically a big bar. 1980-ish. I was leaning on the stage. Else I might have fallen over…
Saw GT in Houston TX back then too. His opening act: Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Front row at the War Memorial Auditorium in Trenton, NJ in 1979. I stood in front of the stage with my Minolta and he posed and strutted while I took pictures of him from three feet away.
$5 in 1982 with Bo Diddley opening. Booyah!!!
You’ve heard this before when Ronnie Hawkins did it in The Last Waltz(1976). Quicksilver Messenger Service did this song the best on the album Happy Trails(1968).
Quicksilver was the best for sure ... no contest
I agee
Quicksilver, yes, and I equally enjoy the version by Tom Rush (1966)
@@tkbourne53 i forgot about the tom rush version , might be my second choice ... Tom is so overlooked for such a great artist
The great John Cipollina! Love QMS.
The main influence is Bo Diddley, who did the original, guitar riff (he even says it in the song "the main with the music with the Bo Diddley Beat."), and wrote this song. George's version is much more raw but its essentially the same thing. I saw George in a bar in like (IDK) 1976 in Bryn Mawr PA (the Main Point?) before he "made it." it was f-ing insane. George definitely took everyone back to Roots Rock and Roll.
My first concert was seeing George play New Year's Eve at the State Theatre in Newark, DE at an all ages show. I think I was about 13 and this was around '78 or '79. Super crazy hot doggin' on the guitar and an awesome show. He stepped off the stage and out onto the backs of the movie theatre seats in the first few rows during a guitar solo and walked back onto stage, all without missing a beat and it was freaking awesome.
"the good time music and the Bo Diddley Beat"
There's a little Howling Wolf in there too
"Gear Jammer" should be on your list to check out. Amazing song by George.
The other great sax song in his catalog (Bad to the Bone being the greatest)
You may remember this song from The Last Waltz, with The Band playing with their mentor, Ronnie Hawkins.
The Rhythm used here (referred to as the Bo Diddly beat) is based on West African Youruba via Afro Cuban Clave.( basis of Salsa music & dance) It can be heard on songs, Not Fade Away, Iko Iko, I Want Candy and others
Original of this Bo Diddly The Doors and countless others also cover this.
Not Fade Away!!
@@williameisenman9008 Ha, yes thanks. What's another track to ad to the list.
The Bo Diddley beat was used by Jeff Porcaro on Toto’s “Rosanna”
@@Yikes5824 Yes true as well as the Purdie Shuffle ( which Bonham used in Fool in the Rain) Poccaro brilliantly combined both. Sure you know that 😉
BTW my favorite track Poccaro was on Tommy Bolin( RIp) --"Homeward Strut" 🔥
@@jimreadey2743 Yes, you are correct and I am ok with you pointing that out.
Sometimes we unintentionally make an ass out of ourselves 😆 Just edited.
If you want a George original song.... I drink Alone
Need to see George live to fully appreciate
I agree, I've seen him 3 times. Never disappoints!
@@derekjhpeterson3882 saw him many times around the University of Delaware and southeastern Pennsylvania in the early 70’s.
I saw GT in concert a few months ago and at the age of 73 he is still a legend on the a guitar! Yes his voice is not the same but man he can still rock out harder then guys half his age!
Can you imagine George and Uncle Ted playing together 🤯
Great tour this year!
When Bo Diddley asks you who you love, the reply better be Bo Diddley!
" I don't even remember" - " I know..." LMFAO, I was laughing my ass off with you Andy at Alex's comment.
For those of us who grew up listening to George Thorogood it's so great to see youngsters appreciate his snarl. Thanks for doing this!
Next song to check out? "Wasn't me"
I’m a fan of George and used to catch him playing gigs around Philly in the 80s. He’s a great pub rocker and has never been accused of cruising by on his looks.
These guys still need to learn music history and development. Bo Diddley, etc...
And he is still rocking out to the max. Saw him this July on his delayed UK tour. George and the Delaware Destroyers remain the epitome of good time, hard driving, roadhouse blues rock.
George always puts me in a good mood. I have seen him live a few times and he never disappoints, the whole crowd is rockin' and all kinds of special guests always show up to join in on the fun. This is an A+ for me if not straight into the S tier.
Y'all need to review an original version of a song like this with the modern cover back to back in the same video.
Haven’t heard this in ages! Thank you for this.
The first time I heard George Thorogood in the 70s I felt I'd heard him all my life, thanks Bo Diddley!💥
The live version of Madison Blues with Albert Collins (The master of the Telecaster) as a guest in Capital Theatre is unbelievable!
just saying....

GOOOOOOOD AFTERNOON A&A FAMILY!!
☮️💟♾️
Written & released in 1956 by Bo Diddley, one of the pioneers of Rock & Roll.
George Thorogood " Who Do You Love " Live Aid with Bo Diddly ( 85 ) !!
Good suggestion ?
Got to give props to George for going out of his way to get Bo to join with the most worldwide exposure posdible.
This needs to be live the energy he put out is incredible and all talent no backing track
Love you George, bad to the bone. This guy rocks
"I Drink Alone" should be your next tune my George Thorogood, and (sticking with the same style) I also recommend "I Hear You Knocking" by Dave Edmunds.
Imagine attending a Rolling Stones concert in 1980 and George Thorogood and the Destroyers open the concert!
I haven’t listened to him in so long so this was a treat. George Thorogood’s music always makes me so happy. You should check out his version of “Move It On Over” which was originally done by Hank Williams. It’s pure gold.
Originally done by Hank Sr. in 1947.
Fabulous Thunderbirds ~ "Tuff Enough"...! (Stevie Ray's brother)
So glad I was born after Little Richard, Bo Diddly and the pioneers came and left the world a better place 🤘
Rock N Roll MoFo's!!!
Peace from PA ✌️
This is a "Bo Diddley" song from 1956 and that sound is the Bo Diddley beat. To me it's totally awesome. By the way the band "The Doors" do a great cover of this also.
Love the Quicksilver Messenger Service cover their album Happy Trails .. these reactions help in understanding who covers what ..
The Doors have a good version of this too. Sometime you should listen to the live concert version of "One Bourbon One Scotch" with Alvin Bishop on stage with George! Maybe not for a reaction, you just need to hear/see it!
The Doors did it better imho. Maybe growing up with their version makes me biased, but Morrison has hotter vocals in it.
Awesome!! Saw them in ‘80 in Norman, OK. They were great!🤘🔥
Fun fact. George and The Destroyer's we're awesome softball players and would set up games on there tours and play the areas best before their concert. I believe they never lost a game. I watched them destroy the competition 23 to zero then jam their hearts out the next night. Great band to see live.
I got to see George Thorougood and the Destroyers back in early 80s. The combination of drinking beer and George playing live is a great time.
George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers was my introduction to the greats like Bo Diddley, John Lee Hooker, and Muddy Waters. Ya sometimes gotta start somewhere. Thumbs up for recognizing this tune!
Saw Bo Diddley in a small blues club in ChiTown, I was standing right at the stage edge, two feet from Bo, it was dark, smokey, steamy, could feel the guitar beat go right thru you. Perfect.
I saw George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers a few times - he's from the area. He can play and good times at his shows. Merry Merry to all!
I love George's bluesy work. So great in concert.
I signed up because you are the best and never stop listening to the song, sorry if I made some mistakes but I don't speak English well, I'm Italian. I love you❤❤
Damn! This takes me back.
Thorogood was cranking at every party I went to as a teen. Great!
I agree with that other guy. The Bo Didley version is bbbbbbbad.
Saw George live a few times in the early 80's. Dude could light up an audience.
The Doors live version of this song is incredible.
"Bad to the Bone" is another great GT song. You should listen to some Bo Diddley though since this is his beat.
Going to see George was an annual event at Pine Knob outside of Detroit. He ROCKS!!!🎸🎸🎸
Saw George & the Destroyers at the Ryman Auditorium on March 3, 2020 - my last concert before Covid hit. Great concert at a great venue.
Saw him perform 8 times in small theaters and bars in and around Philly in the 80’s and he played hard. A local legend around here.
Bo Diddley’s OG version of this song is groundbreaking. It came out in 1956 on Checker Records label.
Saw him in concert at the opera house in Spokane in the mid 80s. It was a rockin concert.
Originally released in 1956... written by Ellas McDonald... performed by Bo Didley... same dude, BTW.
Saw him open for the Stones in Phoenix on their 1st farewell tour 81- 82. George was phenomenal. Stones were too. They filmed it. Let's Spend the night Together
I saw them on that tour, unfortunately George was not the opening act. I can't even remember their name.
@@aquatarkus2022 J Geils opened some shows
@@sabbster1157 that would've been killer. It was a blues rock band from Minnesota IIRC.
I Drink Alone ,Bad To The Bone, Move It On Over, Get A Haircut, and Madison Blues all should be on your radar.
Allman Brothers " no one to run with" uses this rif worth a lesson
'you shoulda heard just what i seen' always loved that line
Saw him and the Destroyers at a two bit club in the Black Hills in the early 80’s. One of the best concerts I’ve ever been to!!
YES such a driving track & one I spin often
One of my favorites from an under appreciated legend. Bad to the Bone is a must react. "Gear Jammer" is another favorite. Especially as a truck driver!
A George Thorogood concert was always a party. And God help you if George saw you sitting down during his show.
Dude's 72 yrs old and out on tour now. No Fla dates on this leg but he does love playing Florida. Go see him whenever he makes it down Tampa way. Saw him in Jacksonville several times and he always kicked ass.
George was always great live. saw him when he did his 50 states in 50 days in a checker cab, tour.
Who Do You Love was written way before 1978. Lyrically, I've always assumed the hyperbolic lyrics are not meant to be taken as any thing to take seriously.
Excellent reaction. You should react to "I drink alone" next, although he has many other bangers as well.
This song was featured in The Last Waltz. The Band was joined by Ronnie Hawkins, the guy who brought them together. That rendition was much better!
I saw him play in a small club right before he became popular. He was great live. Incredible energy.
Saw George Thorogood with ZZ Top back in late 80s and it was one helluva fun concert.
I saw the Destroyers open for the Stones at old JFK Stadium in Philly. He was the opening act followed by Journey who got the Philly bottle shower. And then George came out and played with the Stones. Used to love those big outdoor shows!
A lot of 60s garage bands also covered this song. The Woolies is the one example that comes to mind. I hope you will revisit this genre soon. It is one of my favorites. I don't think you've done any since Dirty Water.
Always loved this song. Takes me back to a motorcycle road trip with my partner... we were riding down the highway on my bike, her behind, this tune was cranked on the stereo and I was acting and singing it to her. A van goes by with a family in it, and the teen daughter was staring at us... in total disbelief what I was doing. We laughed so hard seeing her face. And yes, they could hear the music.
The first time I saw Thorogood live he closed out a weekend long music festival. He and the Destroyers did near 3 hours and totally owned the stage and the crowd. I'd have to say they were the best band that weekend, and considering the lineup it says a lot. The acts included George Thorogood, Doobie Brothers, Creedence Clearwater Revisited, Kim Mitchell, E.L.O., Nazareth, Iron Butterfly, Chilliwack, Streetheart, Goddo, Stampeders, Toronto, Headpins, Honeymoon Suite.
You're right that its iconic because its an oooooooold riff
I watched an old live concert film with him. That grinding guitar tone came from his ES-125 plugged straight into a dimed silverface Princeton. Unreal.
Robbie's slide on the Door's Live version is unmatched.
Move It On Over shreds. And I absolutely adore I Drink Alone.
It's fun to sing this at karaoke and George is from my home town, so also nice :)
Pure bar rock...and I'm here for it.
Saw George not long ago. He said, "I can't sing". I thought, " you may be right, George. But that's okay with me 'cause you can ROCK!"
I've been neglecting all my youtuber channels for too long! I'm so glad you guys finally checked this song out!
And despite the fact that you may already know a bit of "Bad to the Bone," it's way cooler than you think: read the lyrics as you listen! Just do it! Lol
Yall should go back in time and check out the old blues masters like Robert Johnson, Willy Dixon, Muddy Waters, Little Walter, Lightnin Hopkins, Son House, John Lee Hooker, and Elmore James. An awesome rabbit hole and you'll be going "THATS where that song came from!" again and again.
Boom! Banger!
Yaa ! Ace all day long ! can remember seeing George on the " Old Grey Whistle Test " about 1978 loved his stuff !!
Up their with , SRV ! Jeff Healey ! and almost the late great ," Rory Gallagher " Cheers ! Great tune !
Merry Christmas ! Mines a 25 year single malt please !!
I danced to this song banged by this artist in my twirrrrrrling poodle skirt in 1981. FUN TIMES!
Merry Christmas!
One of the great bar bands who toiled for a long while. Getting that earthy sound in the studio is not so easy, and they managed to pretty nearly capture their live performances on their studio tracks. Their first several albums served as a welcome oasis from all the disco, soft rock and cookie cutter/hair band rock that dominated the radio. Carved out a nice little niche, bringing the music of the blues masters to a brand new, younger audience. In that sense, he was kind of in a parallel lane with punk and the artists who later formed a rockabilly revival. "Bad to the Bone'' is, for sure, his crowning moment, which became ubiquitous in pop culture.
I saw George Thorogood 6 times during the late 70's, early 80s. Always a great show. Gear Jammer might be a fun one for you to review.
Me 4 times once he played a 4 hour show..... I'd see him today
George Thorogood puts on a great concert, one of the hardest working guys in rock and roll.😎🍺
"Got the goodtime music and the Bo Diddley beat."
Pretty funny line to add since he's adapting a Bo Diddley song here.
Two things: he gives a boost to a great Bo Diddley song . 2nd , George deserves to be seen on stage; great "stage presence" . Percussion: awesome!!!
My favorite is George's cover of Elmore Jame's Madison Blues. They are known for their covers, but they make them rock!
Jonny Lang "Lie To Me". He was 15 when he recorded it. His first hit. He is a definite rabbit hole!
Caught Johnny Winter and George Thorogood at the Pittsburgh Civic Arena around ‘84 or ‘85, was on the floor with nice seats and it was a monster of a night. Guitar heroes all night long.
Every time I hear this song it takes me back to the 80's! I saw this live back then and boy was it a drunk - fest! A girl at the railing ahead of us nearly went over it, but her boyfriend grabbed her by the back of the pants and saved her a trip to the ER or morgue!
“It wasn’t me” by Thorogood. Same era. Fun song.
