(George Thorogood) Who do You Love- Dedication; Bo Diddley

[mourningstar11]

Does anybody know who covers this in the opening of the movie "la bamba"? It's a bit heavier and a lot faster. Really like that version.....not that bo aint the man.

Oh, and nice tribute Brother! I just love the guy & wish he'd have gotten the love & attention Chuck Berry got, he sure deserved it spanning old blues to the first rock to the first driving hard rock. Thanks for taking the time to pay tribute to one of my all time musical heros!

[redfishradical]

70s rocker but love the founding fathers (Bo, Chuck, Little Richard, Bill Haley). Bo brought the first edgy music with the driving afro/caibean beat & rough lyrics w/a rattlesnake for a neck tie, chimney of human skulls etc.! Saw Chuck (twice) & he was a prick to his backing band both times, self absorbed & never played in key or time. Saw Bo 3 times. ALWAYS fun, backing bands LOVED him, the crowd LOVED him! Gracious, took time to talk w/those of us who waited after the show. God bless you Bo!

only George could do a remake of a Bo song and it does him justice BO is the King and George is the prince

[TheProlific1980]

Thumbs up if you think George Thorogood is underated!

[1962drob]

@TheProlific1980 I don't know. He gets a lot of airplay on the Classic Rock Station in my home town, but I'll give you thumbs up anyway.

[kawliga55]

nice dedication vid, cool pics

[Muizelot]

Not sure what you are all talking about. This is George Thorogood's version and not Bo Diddly.

Bo Diddly's style is way different then this song.

[ricoisawsome]

its a dedication

[vikingbiff]

what come first? diddley bo, or bo diddley

[yourmotherisdead]

[tan94319]

the version of this song played at the beginig of the movie la bamba is way better

[LetArtsLive]

hey bo diddley if it werent for old rock'n rollers like him where would music be???

[qwerly45]

Im new to his music, do you know when this first came out?

[LetArtsLive]

um no i think the 70's mabe you could google it

[xxxstiletto]

yes this is a great song was made in the late 1950'. Bo Diddley first album with his fabulous all ,black dudes,band. Other great songs in the same albums MONA an I m Man. Is worth listening .

[adriandkg]

This was clearly based on the Doors' version; it sounds much closer to that than to Bo Diddley's original.

[mopsius]

The Great of the GREAT.

[redfishradical]

Bo's original version 60 some years back was power-rock like this. In fact he was the great grandfather of power rock over lighter rock cranking powerchords & singing bad-ass lyrics! I was lucky enough to meet him. What a gracious, generous soul! Later I was right up front w/a camera. When he was playing he waved to me & came over & gave me some "action shots". He even motioned a couple people out of the way for my shot!

Truly, a profoundly nice man and epic innovator.

[johnpaul68]

I thought that the original version by Bo Diddley would have had this particular guitar riff until I listened to it. Who else does a version with this kind of guitar riff?

[TheRealNatNat]

the Doors ! :D

[2pintsplease]

He hit 80, despite the square guitar. respect.
