In the late sixties I went to the Cog d'or tavern in Toronto and got a table right by the stage. During the first break, Bo came up to my table and asked me if he could check out my leather watch strap that I had made. During the next break he took another look at my strap and asked me if I could make him a similar guitar strap and I agreed. During the course of the week and after few designs and fittings, I made him the strap that became his signature strap. We became friends, spending time at his house in Los Lunas New Mexico. I also made his leather Black Gladiator outfit later on.
I worked at Le Coq D'or during the 60's. The best times, were when Bo let it rip around midnite. His number called the Bo Diddley Concerto was the most mesmerizing Rock n' Roll in existence. You couldn't sit or stand still. It sometimes lasted 10 - 12 minutes. Unforgettable. Saw Bo in Edmonton the same year he passed. One of a kind!
He's an original. Talented and a mover and shaker, plus you can't sit still when he plays, that's cool and something a lot of musicians don't have anymore. That 50's 60's sound. Bless Bo and all the enjoyment he brought us !
I saw him live in London near where I was living at the time, he was on with The Rolling Stones, and the Everly Brothers were Headlining, Bo' stole the show!!!!
IL RIFF PIU' FAMOSO DELLA STORIA DEL ROCK E DELLA MUSICA MODERNA CHE TI ENTRA DENTRO CON LA FORZA DI UNA LOCOMOTRICE INCESSANTE CHE MARTELLA IL CERVELLO DANDOCI UNA SENSAZIONE DI ADRENALINA PIACEVOLE INSUPERABILE IMMENSO BOB DIDDLEY.
so howcome 4 guys using 1950s equipment made this song sound so much better on 'The Ed Sullivan Show' back in 1955? I mean, I can barely hear the drums here
Yeah, why? He's right-handed and his weight is on his right foot. Here, he had two toes amputated due to diabetes so his balance correction is noticeable.
AS HE DOES NOT KNOW TO PLAY THE GUITAR, RECOVER THE DANCING TRICKS OR OTHER THINGS TO DISTRATION FROM THE PUBLIC, BO USES THE GUITAR AS A PERCUSSION INSTRUMENT, MORE THAN AS A GUITAR.

That’s cool AF. Did you make anything for the Duchess? She played around that time.

I met Bo at a backstage party in Dundee in the mid 80's. What a gentleman he was!

I was lucky enough to see him play in a Brooklyn R&R show
When I was just a kid-saw him again in the 70's at Max
Bo Diddley absolutely Rules!, even in his later years.

OMG this reminds me of my grandfather he loved Bo Diddley.
One of the masters and his cast music too!!
Coolest dude who ever lived. All the rest who played his music are just tribute acts!
Glad I saw him a couple times in 1998 and 2002. Master.

You haven't a clue what you're banging on about
He's a legend, but yawn 😩
I bet ANY amount of money, Bo outperformed you on his worse day. Do the research.
Idiot
