Bo Diddley — "Back to School" (1966)
That man was a musical gunslinger who continually surprised everyone who followed the trajectory of his career.
Are you sure Mick Jagger isn’t singing on this? Or do I only think that because of all the Bo Diddley stuff they did in the 60s?
Hahaha — no Jagger involvement at all, to the best of my knowledge. But yeah, Mick (and Keith) definitely lifted more than a few tricks from Bo’s bag!
Wax Trax! I remember being in awe of all the beautiful Gene Vincent and Little Richard LPs but usually leaving with something like the Yardbirds.
Oh man… in retrospect, I really should have spent more time and money in that section — I remember they even had an original Los Shakers album, which I blew off at the time because I thought it would probably be terrible.
