Ultimate Bo. - By: RUEBEN AMOS RUNACRE, 17 Jun 2007
If you want to buy just one Bo Diddley album then this is the one!

Bo Diddley was a huge influence on the British blues revolution of the sixties especially on bands such as; The Rolling Stones, The Pretty Things, The Yardbirds & The Animals, to name just a few. The lyrics of his songs were relatively simple, the secret wasin the rhythm! His sound was quite unique & way ahead of it's time.

Essential Bo Diddley - By: some1, 28 Apr 2006
If you want the essential Bo Diddley & more, then get this CD here.

A double disc album accompanied with extensive liner notes this is a serious piece of musical history.
Bo Diddley was perhaps one of the finest guitar players of the 1950's, not only did he revolutionize the blues/rock'n'roll sound & take it to new placesin the process he created his own distinct sound which was later emulated by such artists as Buddy Holly & the Rolling Stones.
