Bo Diddley

The Singles Collection

Bo Diddley’s distinctive style, the ‘Bo Diddley beat’, which cast it’s wide influence on Rock and Pop songs ever since Bo’s debut in 1955 is showcased here through his finest Checker records cuts. Nicknamed ‘The Originator’ he never really achieved the same degree of success as his Chess label mate Chuck but his part in the R&B + Rockabilly = Rock ‘N’ Roll equation is undeniable and pivotal.
