UKULELE - DEAREST DIDDLEY

My one-man band tribute to Bo Diddley who died a week ago (02.06.08). Bo Diddley was the king of rhythm but he wasn't stuck on his famous shave-and-a-haircut-two-bits pattern as most music writers would have you believe - he did have other styles! He also had a great sense of humour in his songs. "Dearest Darling" is a lesser known song from his back catalogue. I've added a shot of Tequila cos I think that's what he was getting at.
Recorded at La Chunky, Glasgow 2008

yeah dont believe the hype - ignorant DJs and hack writers recycle the same old lies and false presumptions enough times that people mistake bullsh*t for truth - Bo Diddley is a legend, nice work Gus.
