Hey Bo Diddley - Toronto 69

.

[@robinbrown4706]

There are probably three or four people responsible for that first Rock and Roll feel and Bo Diddley was one of em - absolute primal energy at its highest peak musically.

[@Ani-y8w]

Bo RULES! And I'm a slipknot fan! If there was no Bo. No slipknot 😢

[@MrCillyman]

Absolutely in love with Bo’s back up singer Cookie V true name Cornelia Redmond-Chavez. She sadly passed at 50 in 1999. So beautiful and sexy with the voice of an angel. You ROCKED Cookie V !

[@alexkearns7809]

Me too !! RIP girl .

[@delafuzz]

Totally agreed, her Queen of Fools 45 on Checker is a huge favourite of mine.

[@stevepayne5965]

Oh no! What happened to her? ☹

[@ktd9]

She was smokin' hot....I had to google her up....Perfect addition to the band..

[@johnnystrat]

Thanks for that info, MrC - as you say, so beautiful, sexy and a great mover.

[@anthonyshaw9994]

That drummer is so great!!! No showing off or fancy fills,just rockin all the way

[@elloco6544]

Einer der besten Rock 'n roll Auftritte ever, pure sex...Danke & chapeau....

[@juannavarro5487]

Now this is the real American blues music. Amazing! The bass player and Diddley are hypnotic.

[@antoninsvgcp4497]

Proto-metal🤣🤣🤣

[@nathandodge665]

It's black rockabilly actually

[@rocket8651]

Bo... he put the rock in rock n roll... .. that girl is cute, I never seen a pair of legs so great....

[@Ani-y8w]

Bo is important not the hoe

[@glen6945]

was there in the front row and enjoyed it all thanks for the film.

[@juanrobertonavarro650]

+Glenn parent Do yo saw the doors???!!!

[@MrRJMGREEN]

Wow, what can you remember from that day? Please reply.

[@glen6945]

it was on for 3 days----we had hot great weather----and cool evenings-the music was very good .

[@MrRJMGREEN]

Approximately what time of day was this act? It looks like the afternoon/eve?

[@glen6945]

2ocloak in the afternoon.

[@stewartfenton7660]

Richard and his band must have been a hell of a thing to see at their peak ( I did see them at Wembley in 1972, along with Bo and the others), but I'll take Bo, the greatest then,now, forever.

[@Cre8ive_Disorder]

blows my mind every time BO LEGEND!!!!!!

[@BBQFanNo1]

Now this is HAPPY MUSIC! Something the 21st Century needs a lot more of!

[@ОлегПетров-у4б6ы]

Мне было всего семь лет тогда. И, Бо Дидли, я узнал несколько лет назад. Но я восхищаюсь его музыкой, исполнением и артистизмом. Очень жаль, что я не родился раньше, лет на 15-20. Вся музыка была написана в шестидесятые-семидесятые.

[@gparas]

I wish I could go back in time and be there.

[@daviddorward7684]

So true on my part as well. However my time machine is not working well this year, 2024!

[@PunkinFreetobemeAnderson]

R.I.P Grandpa Bo Pop we miss you!!

[@TopJimmyWinn]

Who was the girl onstage with tambourine? Where is she now? Hello from Gainesville ;)

[@bluesugar58]

@@TopJimmyWinn The woman in Cornelia Redmond aka Cookie V. She died from cancer in 1999 at age 50.

[@1blastman]

BO knows some dance moves!

[@gy4b70]

Bo was better than Gene Gene the dancing machine

[@immaterialimmaterial5195]

What a fantastic live sound and amazing camera shots! It really draws you into the event and feels like a road movie! WHAT A GENIUS FILM DIRECTOR!

[@paradox7743]

Bo Diddley is Rock n Roll. There is a carnal Rawness that is so Primal n Powerful! FXXX YEAH!

[@CS-sf1rz]

Now that's what I call a rave-up!!! Classic 401 footage also!

[@glen6945]

yup

[@buckodonnghaile4309]

Toronto hasn't changed much in 54 years......I don't even recognize the place from when I lived there in the early 90s. Condos as far as the eye can see.

[@glen6945]

yup

[@ericmackenzie123]

Bo could play the guitar but he could also dance. He put on a dance for us at a show and it was hypnotic. Up there with Michael Jackson et al.

[@paesano285]

This great!! I can’t stop watching it 😎

[@TubeMistake]

Cookie steals the show!

[@kurtzcol]

i know i could barely take my eyes off of her

[@dewaynewhite2928]

Wow! Awesome gems right here!!

[@peterschulze1716]

I Love the Girl

[@juanvadez2308]

Claro que si. Si yo soy bien respetoso. Y se los agradesco de todo corazon. Muchas gracias y vendiciones. Juan valadez chavez

[@1blastman]

Too bad Buddy Holly couldn't be there. John also loved his music.

[@BBQFanNo1]

+1blastman Well there was no control of that. Blame the idiot pilot and airport who allowed the plane to take off that night with them all.

[@1blastman]

Hey by any chance are you from Indiana and have a son that swam for Notre Dame?

[@joeymaterese8095]

1blastman oh yes good call

[@simaorosariodiane1572]

J'adore !!

[@999therocker]

Always wondered if a camera trick had him playing left hand guitar at the start and then he plays right handed later?? Always loved this dvd. You can tell he's really into playing to so many people here and getting his music out. In a world of too many apathetic people you really need to reach as many as possible to find the few who really understand or care.

[@odinp]

Love that gretsch

[@swittle]

Irresistible!

[@mikemorris2201]

I was there. A great gig that The Doors closed.

[@glen6945]

doors were not there

[@BobbyGass5]

@@glen6945 LOL... Your calling me a liar? What are you some kinda whacko? My comment says I was there and the doors closed the concert so I know. There's bootleg albums of the doors from the 1969 Toronto concert. Also film footage of them on stage at the gig exists too. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKWyqYGlecycfrMsi=YlfIdJ5BB0_vXdEZ ..... Your the liar not me....

3 days 24 hours a day----rock and roll---helped stop the veitnam war

[@Zopf-international]

The kid sitting on the amp watching it all. Fuck yeah perspective thinking!

[@BadvisionStudios]

Absolutely! In my top 5 things I love about this film, along with Bo's broken string, John Lennon's arrival, Bo's moves, and the AMAZING bassist-singer-tambourine sandwich.

[@glen6945]

this went down folks

[@PoiZenEV]

Love !!!!

[@johnzaq1]

Sweet guitar tone

[@skyntyte]

The drummer was not Bo's drummer, so Bo, Boo and Cookie V had to work hard to make the FUNK happen on this show. We'll never know how or why the drummer was selected but Bo was always up for a challenge and he got it on this gig.

[@724films8]

Who is Boo?

[@belted74]

awesome footage of the Vagabonds ridin'

[@alexkearns7809]

John Lennon getting out out of the car was like the second coming of christ .

[@ropersix]

So was this like a Canadian version of Woostock? Looks like it was pretty cool.

[@glen6945]

yup

[@roboi2241]

No Bo Diddley, no 60s garage bands, no funk, no disco, no heavy metal and probably no punk rock. I've probably missed a couple of genres.

Great!

[@antoninsvgcp4497]

3:02 here come the distorted guitars

[@StaffsTransport]

At least one of his songs is on the movie. Shame they didn't release his whole set. You can still buy the movie and the whole of Little Richard's set. I think Chuck Berry set is still available secondhand but getting rare.

[@kare2much]

And it's damn hard to find the full Alice Cooper set.
