You forgot to add; ( you gotta have) "Faith" by George Michael - the funky acoustic guitar riff that's all over the song, and drives the track, interspersed with tons of percussion for the full on groove !
I want candy was originally written by the strangeloves, no? also forgot about Johnny Otis, the animals, Them.. the 60s was rampant with this groove honestly.
Buddy Holly did “Not Fade Away” first Lord Huron’s Fool For Love is a good example as is Rusholme Ruffians by The Smiths and His Latest Flame by Elvis too!
Bo Diddley beat had nothing to do with any Cubans or Africans. People always trying to tie in other groups and discredit Foundational Black American creativity. What Cubans/Africans influenced Diddley? It was the Black American church that influenced Diddley.
@chairman76 Where was Diddley listening to Yoruba or Congolese music? What are you going to say, that the specific beat came through slavery? Show videos of the beat from the time period in Nigeria or the Congo. Just like Latinos/Caribbeans trying to say they created Hip Hop or it was "50/50". Yet in their countries you can't find Hip Hop or any of them rapping, flowing etc. While you can literally pull up videos of Black Americans doing it decades before, the credited birth year of Hip Hop which is 1973.
@@complexblackness Well...listen to me very carefully..this particular beat has existed in Africa for thousands of years, it's basically in the DNA. It was later taken to Cuba, Colombia and Brazil via the Atlantic Slave trade. Remember, playing the drum was banned in most of the USA by the white slavers (except in Congo Square, New Orleans, Louisiana) So, to answer your question I dunno where Bo Diddley got the influence of the beat from, maybe from his genes or from a seance? YOU do the research and let us know.

Johnny Marr’s riff on How Soon Is Now is essentially a distorted bo diddley beat
How soon is now by the Smiths
Great piece !
0:14 the original from the Ed Sullivan show is my favorite. just a smoking beat.
Bruce Springsteen's 'She's the One' and 'Preacher's Daughter' should be there
Another song with it is Beady Eyes Shine a Light
Desire-U2
1969 by the stooges/Iggy pop
Desire and She's the One
Hoborable mention: "Don't let him go" by REO Speedwagon

@@fsinjin60 husker du forgettable? tell that to bille joe armstrong or dave grohl and theyll look at you like an idiot
How do you do this without Buddy Holly?
Because it was covered…
By the stones and the dead
You really need more?

Mr. Brownstone GNR borrows from the great Bo Diddley

At least one of those songs predates "Bo Diddley".
All of those songs came after "Bo Diddley" (1955).
None of them do. The entirety of American popular music was created by Black Americans and copied by everyone else.
Big Bad Bo........every one else is fake.

Well do not discredit Africans either. The beat is Congolese & Yoruba and existed for thousands of years before "America" even existed.

Where is the African or Cuban influence here? This rhythm is 100% Black American made.
The beat is Congolese & Yoruba and existed for thousands of years before "America" even existed.
@@chairman76 where is the Bo Diddley beat recorded before him, then?
