Musician Bo Diddley dies aged 79
Today we mourn the loss of one of the pioneers of rock ‘n’ roll, without whom, neither Buddy Holly and George Thorogood would have ever had a career. Diddley’s patented "Bo Diddley Beat" is one of the unmistakably unique and original sounds that helped forge the sound that drove rock ‘n’ roll in the early years. He enjoyed commercial and critical acclaim with such hits as "Hey, Bo Diddley" and "Who do you Love", which were each covered in tribute by Holly and Thorogood, respectively, to great success for both. Diddley’s style, personality and music will be sorely missed. Enjoy rockin’ out in Heaven, Bo.
