I had never heard of him until I began to investigate where all the British blues was coming from in the late 60s.
Hope you get well, Mr. Diddley.

Back in my rock ‘n’ roll days, my musician friends would be thinking of something to play just to fool around, and invariably someone would eventually say, “Just play a Bo Diddley rhythm, and I’ll jam on top of that.” And everyone knew what to do.
