HAVE BO WILL TRAVEL


  7-17-12 LAME TO THEBRAIN..July saw the release of two classic BO DIDDLEY albums; his second LP "Go Bo Diddley('59) and his third LP "Have Guitar Will Travel('60). Like his first LP, his second was all killa, no filla. His third contains classics like "Mona" and "Cops and Robbers".   RAY DAVIES, while being a guest VJ on MTV back in the '80's, expressed dismay that George Thorogood's "Bad To The Bone" video would show George beating Bo in a pool game. I'd add that having George become the hero over Bo to all the poor kids in "the hood" was at best in rather dubious taste. You could've made the video and STILL lost the game, George...that's called the blues...
