Default RIP Bo Diddley

Just heard the news about Bo Diddley. Without him, much of the rock music we know today may not have happened!

Rest in Peace Bo. A truly amazing guitarist. As someone put it on YouTube: "God's gonna get some real guitar lessons now!"

Oh that's sad. I've just read the first couple of chapters of Hammer of the Gods (Led Zeppelin story) and he's mentioned there. He was an influence on so many great rock musicians we know today.

Definitely a big loss...the amount of songs and bands he influenced is endless.

His memory lives on in the form of a local Scottish band called Bo Deadly

That'll have him turning in his grave.
