RIP Bo Diddley

Bo Diddley passed away today, sad. Saw him play live one night in Stockholm in a surprise gig at Melody Club in the late 80's. I had hardly heard of the old black dude in a hat, glasses and a suit, ripping away on a square Gretsch. The gig was fantastic, and he was a total pro on stage, playing amazing guitar. He is said to be the founder of rock'n'roll guitar. May Bo play forever in heaven now, unless he signed a contract with the devil, at the crossroads, well, the way he played guitar, he probably did...
