Favorite Bo Diddley song
Edited on Wed May-25-05 12:06 AM by undisclosedlocation
Earworms II: When I don't have the Tom Petty tune in my head, it's the Bo Diddley beat, over and over again. I wanted to do a poll, but it turns out that I hardly know any Bo Diddley tunes. I thought "Willie and the Hand Jive" was, but per top40db it's actually by Johnny Otis. Anyway, the one stuck in my head is Warren Zevon's cover of "Bo Diddley's A Gunslinger." Mind you, I like Bo's own records, too, but at this late date it's easier to find covers. Sad.

What say you? It's acceptable to answer "All his songs are the same..." and either "... and I like 'em" or "... and I don't like 'em.":D

Edit: One too many actuallys

1. "Background to a Music"
I'm too lazy to get out of bed and pull the record off the shelf.

It's kind of an insane one. v. outsider art.

fucked up. Guy's the fucking rock and roll king.
