    Still working at age 78, he's an inspiration to we 50-somethings.

    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    Oh, no... oh, man, I was holding out hope that I would be able to see him live someday. Damn. That's a hell of a loss for music.

    Edit: He never stopped rockin'.

    Bo KNOWS death!










    Ok, now that was in very poor taste... and a pop culture reference completely lost on younger Orgahs. For their edification...

    Seriously though, here's to B.D. the blues playin' gunslinger. Catchy tunes aside the the great thing about Bo Diddley was that he seemed to have an awful lot of fun at his own expense and was notorious for his off beat and fun loving approach to the blues...
