Bo Diddley - Hey Bo Diddley!

[@Reespeck4all]

There are a lot of "cool" guys, but there is only one Diddley Cool.

[@goshlikkrudbahr5109]

I love how Garfunkel guy is the only one that gets it. We want the Monkees! 😇

[@goshlikkrudbahr5109]

Groovy Bo

[@giulioluzzardi7632]

[@petercorbett3794]

[@goittoog7563]

[@johnknottenbelt2727]

One of the most influential guitarists, never credited for his six string prowess. He was 'the King Snake of Boogie' ! 😊

[@bboybarafuco]

Godfather of rock music

[@leokimvideo]

This song in 1970 was already 15 years old, Bo was at the coal face when rock & roll was created. He influenced everyone who came after him.

[@BlackHoleSun1921]

Bo Diddley is what Rock & Roll is all about.

[@danrgoodnight9345]

Saw BO three times, even have a guitar pick he gave me, a true father of Rock n Roll. Often Imitated, Never Duplicated !

[@giulioluzzardi7632]

Frame that Guitar pic!

[@engleharddinglefester4285]

Yep frame it!

[@mr_two_tone9592]

The drummer is amazing

[@rockinrobb4350]

For the life of me How can you sit still to this classic rock tune!!??Thats Bo Diddley rockin not less then three fit away!! man oh man wish i could've been there!!

[@jeffkaufman9875]

At his best, Bo was always boss and masterfully in charge, bringing home the bacon to a hungry public…

[@garyspring5981]

Too me he is my king 👑 of rock and roll the great bo diddley

[@terrya.1066]

what a great time to be alive,

[@tg5476]

goose bumps head to toe

[@georgehuntersr6415]

Everyone back in that era could perform without all the computer & electronic equipment today and most killed it

[@toddtarble]

He invented this sound & the entire surfer sound...All of it!!!!

[@acquanellaogbemudia9930]

The real OG music ❤❤❤❤ Go Bo Diddley ❤❤❤❤❤

[@timoliver5365]

love the Rat Fink sticker on his axe

[@admiralbenbow5083]

If you wanted to drum behind this man you needed to be FIT. Dear God !!

[@eldredbrian]

Saw him three times in concert

[@GilMarquesDuarte]

B52's and DEVO have a lot of Bo Didley.

[@judythompson8227]

yes please. He's still amazing

[@francisblair]

Love bo diddly absolutely a legend

[@kzustang]

The absolute king!

[@AlainBELLY-tc4ze]

100 pour 100 rock !

[@kentcampbell7613]

None better go Bo go.

[@gordonspence6544]

I've never seen a bad version of this song EVER! by Bo .. nails it every time .. this guy and Chuck Berry totally got the guitar thing goin on . TUNE!

[@curtisthomas2670]

The opening reminds me of "Centerfold" by J Geils Band from the 80's

[@1flyingdutchman1]

Now here i hear the rock and i hear the roll. Genius!!

[@michaelfugate2404]

I love this. The dancer brought some spunk to it too.

[@dadassery8506]

She nailed it. The tambourine provides rhythm you typically expect to hear on a snare. Nice vibe

[@daddo2413]

Fun to see this! And the different reactions from the audience. Many didn’t realize they were seeing a true master. When I saw him about ten years after this, my mouth was wide open the whole concert.

[@thomasmedeiros5722]

If you think about it Bo Diddley invented the Bo Diddley beat then named the song after himself. As one of the founding fathers of rock n roll he developed quite a business model. Other artists picked up on the Bo Diddley beat. Personally George Thorogood is my personal favorite with his Bad To The Bone song.

[@derekbroughton6535]

Heard him in the late late 50's

[@sledzeppelin]

So fucking cool.

[@alangolias8628]

Nice to do 4 sets of the same song !!!

[@lbindert]

In the army we ran in formation hollering this in cadence.....

[@lesaber251]

Same here. Back in 1975.

[@franzbest5988]

1981,same thing,we lived off of Bo Diddley,bo Diddley, where yo been,down to the Gin house drinking gin ,hey bo Diddley!

[@gordonspence6544]

That guitar sounds industrial. Its like Bo found a prototype in the 50s and was told its not the finished article and can't be used. Now let me see about that said Bo !!

[@fadelfadel9924]

Grande mestre !!

[@jasonsextafeiraderulo9410]

[@ВладимирСергеев-р4я]

Отличная вещь!

[@lisamccray9079]

Neat guitar 🎸 👌

[@BackToTheBlues]

Designed by Bo in 1959. He called it the Jupiter Thunderbird. There were only two made (one for Bo and one for his rhythm guitarist, Peggy Jones, and if you look around on KZbin you can find footage of them both playing them). In later years Bo gave one of them to Billy Gibbons, of ZZ Top. BG eventually got Gretsch to start making them for sale, now renamed the Billy-Bo. I've got one and it's a really comfortable, lovely guitar to play.

[@rdel494]

Maybe 83 ,seaside boardwalk , nj , bo playing for 12 people in thunderstorm , says we getting shocked , how bout I buy who ever wants a drink over at that bar , anyone else remember ? Fun times

[@BLAB-it5un]

The drumming is key to this song. Always amazed me to see clips with a white drummer doing a standard rock rhythm rather than the essential style here. Bo sure got a lot of mileage out of one song.

[@surinapiri-surutube4733]

Straight beat was Bo's own preference. I've read interviews of some musicians that played on later tours and they talk about how Bo always told them to play straight. "I'll do that rhythm, that is my job". Dont know reason, maybe it was that those hired musicians did not just had that sense of rhythm and Bo chose to keep it simple and easy, or maybe Bo wanted to update his sound to harder, straighter and more modern rock. Maybe both

[@brandonschmitt3690]

What do you mean one song? This dude is a f****** legend and one of the greatest rock and roll jazz blues. You name it musicians of all time. This guy is inspired so many genres and so many different artists of all races and backgrounds. It's unreal

[@keleniengaluafe2600]

❤❤❤❤

[@Leon-h8e2s]

It was some dissing in there to you see his hop at the end like

[@gordonswatson2394]

that guy in the white pants is no slouch, either

[@smoothoperator7023]

Saw ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons playing a similar guitar. 🎸

[@1montkosh]

Bo gave Billy a guitar. Bo made his own guitars. Saw him one snowy winter night in Ottawa. Only a dozen people made it. He was late because canadian customs thought there was something fishy about his guitars. Bo said some of his best times were two people. He played some notes that sounded like it came from angels!

[@That_AMC_Guy]

Strange jump cut at 1:38. Wonder what that was all about.

[@antonematos]

Never noticed that before, maybe something happened to the master tape

[@soqueldback]

Who's the dancer in the red dress? I like the shimmy and shuffle!

[@1montkosh]

Bo often had the female presence. More complete.

[@lanceconklin7812]

Is that a rat fink sticker on bo's guitar??

[@TheMouko]

MONDAY 10/21/24 ENJOY,,,,,

[@Leon-h8e2s]

Simple no fancy moves just talanet

[@Leon-h8e2s]

Ok mamma the mj moves

[@billbroyhill6012]

The song he is singing is “Bo Diddley”, not “Hey, Bo Diddley”. They are different songs.

[@Milesco]

Yeah, they screwed that up.

[@jasonkidd1689]

How the f is he getting that tone? Someone explain, just curious.

[@gordonswatson2394]

as Jerry Lee Lewis put it : "just stand in one place and wiggle around a little bit"

[@Milesco]

Whole lotta shakin' goin' on! 😁

[@alangolias8628]

That's when he could play 1970

[@mike-u5y7t]

I wonder if Bo ever received the pay he deserved. A lot of black musicians at the time got screwd,.

[@Neglelakkogrockruler9625]

Eric Burdon from the animals they recorded Bo's songs and Bo said "tell that white SOB to keep recording my music"

[@johnnystrat]

Is that Cookie V dancing in the middle? It kinda looks like her but terrible camera work!

[@kathleengleason9805]

The white kids wanna dance so bad I saw bo diddly n he can get anyone up n dancing his band is always great but Mr Diddly gets down like no other love him always

[@Tuxumino]

this is an Army double time cadence

[@lesaber251]

I remember. In 1975 for me.

[@jim26826271]

Now play Hand Jive and see what you think.

[@SunnyIlha]

The root of that American thing come from Congo

[@piagine]

There are two kings of rock music: Bo Diddley and Chuck Berry. Forget about Elvis - he might be the king of pop but certainly not of rock music.

[@rundontwalk8848]

Just gotta say it I noticed a whole lot of these videos of black musicians back in the day performing in front of white audiences and their sitting there like when are the Byrds coming on… no disrespect to the Byrds but WTF

[@user-yn9os7uc1v]

her hair is about 5-6 years out of date

[@nematode9223]

Bo at his best but some of the zombies in the audience just didn't get the groove. Why would you go to a BD concert if you are tone deaf?

[@shepardsmith3235]

Only Jimmy Hendrix's National Anthem at Woodstock comes close. .

[@stevendreith4343]

I liked him better with his hair greased.

[@partyguinness]

Man, he really milked that song.

Yo mama knew how to lick though 😂 Only cost ten dollars too
