Highbrid Nation Remembers Bo Diddley

Posted by Juan

Rock and Roll Hall of Famer dead at 79

Bo Diddley

Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, Bo Diddley, died Monday of heart failure at his Florida home after months of health problems at the age of 79.

Diddley first gained national notoriety on the power of his first hit single, “Bo Diddley,” in 1955. Diddley would soon also become famous for records like “I’m a Man” and “Who Do You Love?” He was probably most known for his odd shaped square guitar and his trademark shades and black hat. Diddley received a lifetime achievement award at the 1999 Grammy Awards, and played for presidents and royalty.
