Doing The Crawdaddy (In Heaven)

Bo Diddley passed today – leaving behind one of the best and most consistent bodies of work this side of Sam Cooke. My favorite song by him is this one – which I think captures the best aspects of his work – the great Diddley backbeat – and that wonderful voice which I think is severely underrated among post-war blues greats, and rock music in general.

Bo Diddley – Ride On Josephine (1960)
