(8-27-12) ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN...August of '64 saw the
release of the LP "Two Great Guitars" by CHUCK BERRY and BO DIDDLEY. I was lucky enough to see
Chuck and Bo live back in the early '70's when they still put on amazing shows;
full of energy and nothing but one classic song after another. With Bo gone that
leaves only Chuck, Jerry Lee, Little Richard, and Fats left from the original
Golden Age of ROCK N'ROLL . Elvis, Eddie, Gene, Ray, Buddy, Roy....funny how we
know all these guys by their first names....
IGGY met Bo on an elevator
once. IGGY didn't say anything at first. He waited until his floor came and
then he got off, turned around, and just before the elevator door closed he
thanked "Mr. Diddley" for all the great music. I wonder if Bo had any idea who
this funny looking, little white guy was...
