I agree with u mooiegarage dude, it's not the two chords- it's the magic woven into them.
Look at his show and the way he dances- a true showman! And thanks for the tidbit about his Gretsches and his own Billy Bo.. he was more my older brother's time, but every1 from Dylan on borrowed from his style-including me!

Bo Diddley should have been the first black President.

Sadly he died the 2nd of June this year.
A great man and a great musician.
The beatiful chick, with the guitar which Bo custom-made himself, is the Duchess. Find her on myspace.

This has got nothing to do with technique.
Many can play a hundred notes per second (something which belongs maybe more in the competitiveness of the sports-department) and still say nothing. Bo says it all and gives it his all with two. This is all about getting into a groove and letting it carry you away. But if you ain't into it, you ain't into it.

No don't get me wrong I think he's great, hes doing the best you can do with two chords but it stays two chords understand what I'm sayin

It wasn't his insane guitar playing that got him famous. It was his sound and his rhythm. That guitar rhythm combined with the raw sound from those fenders is what distinguished him.

What fenders? His Amps? Because his Guitar is not one. It's a Gretsch Billy-Bo.
